I am interested in contacting anyone who is looking for information on the Rosario and Rivera families from Aibonito and Caguas, Puerto Rico. My father, Toribio Rosario Rivera, and his family were living in Aibonito from 1910 until at least 1930. After that, either the whole family or my father moved to Caguas where he met my mother, Ana Vergara Dones. My grandfather’s name is Sandalio Rosario Alvarado and my grandmother is Maria Rivera Gutierrez.

If you have any relatives from Aibonito and Caguas with these last names, please email me. We may be related.

Hello,

My Grandfather was Justino Rosario and my Grandmother is Mercedes Rosario-simon. Justino's father was Tomas Rosario-Maldonado I would like to find out as much information about my family history as possible. Were we original decendents of P.R.? or did our family originate from somewhere else? if so where?

thank you for you help.

Hello Betzaida Rosario,

My name is Fernando Rosado Rosario of Aguadilla, PR. To answer your question of any other Rosario members out in PR. Well it seems that there is a whole lot of Rosario on the west coast like, Aguadilla, Aguada, Moca, Mayaguez. I myself am a descendant of the Rosario clan in Aguadilla. Some have migrated to NY, Florida, Ohio, California, Chicago and so on.

There is a group that you can join in Yahoo to seek out the Rosario family. It is: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SAMocanos.
Here you can get in contact with people of all walks of life in search of their families as far back as your imagination can take you to.

I myself have my own group, as we all do, and it is http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Rosado/Rosario Family Tree. You may browse there if you like. I hope you do because that is where I found members of my family that I never knew I had. I'm sure that you will find something there.

Hello!!!

Here looking for the Rosario's from the east coast of PR.
My grandfather was Justino Rosario, I know that his mother was known as Ferina they used to lived in Juncos. My father was also named Justino Rosario. For a fact there are several Rosario's in that area, cuz my grandfather had approx. 10 kids so .... Anyway if you know any of them or you are one of them.... Please contact me .

Hello,

My name is Fernando Rosado Rosario and though my family is primarily from the west coast, I have heard of some Rosarios living in Vega Baja in the Almirante Norte/ Sur section. You might want to check out their telephone directory to see if you recognize any of them. I have known of a Rosario from there because my wife is from that area of Vega Baja. I met a Angel Rosario which is one of my wife's cousin. Please let me know if this is of much help or if you find anything from that region that helps connect you with your family.

Betsy,

All of my families are from the west coast. Primarily from Aguadilla. I have lived in Fajardo back in 1980 and has never encountered any Rosarios there. I do hope that you find some. Who knows!!! Maybe we are related after all.

Nando, I have lots of documents for the Rosario's from Fajardo. My GGG-grandfather's name was Nicolas Rosario. Nicolas was born back in 1814.

My grandfather's names was Alfredo Rosario Rivera they were from Cidra Puerto Rico which is about 10 miles from Caguas, I was actually born in Caguas myself. The name Toribio sound familiar as beiing a cousin or second cousin or something of my father.
