\u00a0Miguel Ramos was born abt 1773 in La Coruna, Spain.\u00a0 He was a carabinero or soldier in charge of the weapons\u00a0of a ship. He arrived in Puerto Rico in 1803 with his brother Santiago.\u00a0 He had several children, Miguel, Luisa, Juana, Josefa y Juan.\u00a0 I have not found his wife. The book with this information does not mention the wives, just the men!\u00a0 His wife’s last name was Rodriguez. There\u00a0were only two Juanes living in Fajardo in 1803 according to the author Cifre de Loubriel.\u00a0 One of them has a second last name Moctezuma and the other Rodriguez. One was born in 1840 and the other in 1848.\u00a0 Both dates work with the information given.\u00a0 This family settled in Barrio Rio Arriba of Fajardo.\u00a0These two Juanes Moctezuma\u00a0and Rodriguez were cousins, one was Juan Miguel our direct ancestor and the other one was Juan Luis his cousin. A lot of the members of our family came from the same place.\u00a0 Santiago died of influenza at the age of 24, and I do not know if he had any children of his own.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The people that came to Puerto Rico from La Coruna spoke Catalan a variation of the Spanish language.\u00a0 A lot of the documents found in the church of Fajardo were partly written in Catalan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
