I am researching the MANUELLI, EMANUELLI, ane EMMANUELLI families from Puerto Rico. So far, I have identified four families that came to Puerto Rico from Rogliano, Corsica in the 19th century. Agustin EMMANUELLI arrived in Puerto Rico around 1840, married Maria Monserrate IRIZARRY OLIVERA, and settled in Guayanilla. Luis EMMANUELLI NEGRONI arrived in Puerto Rico around that same time, married her cousin Ana Maria NEGRONI RODRIGUEZ DE LA SEDA, and settled in Yauco. The EMANUELLI COSTA family that migrated to Coamo around 1863, and the EMANUELLI / EMMANUELLI FRANCESCHI family that arrived around 1881 and also settled in Coamo. I have recently expanded my horizons to include any person on planet Earth with those surnames. I have also identified families in France, Italy, Brazil, Argentina, Venezuela, and the United States. I will be very happy to share any information that I have with anyone interested. Thank you.

Some of those names look familiar. Years ago I filmed part of the Yauco Cemetery. Will have to look at the film for you.

Did any of your Costa's marry into the Bonilla families. Our Families migrated the same was Corsica to PR.

Your posting mentions Maria Monserrate Irizarry - do you know where she came from. My maiden name is Irizarry and my father's family was from Cabo Rojo. Any information that you may have, and will share,on the Irizarrys will be greatly appreciated. My grandfathers name was Norberto Irizarry who married Bernarda Rodriguez in the late 1800's.

HI! LOOKING FOR MY FAMILY TREE. MY FATHER IS BONILLA. HIS FATHER IS ALSO NAMED JOSE L. BONILLA. MY GRAND DAD WAS IN US ARMY. MY GREAT DAD IS TO HV 52 CHILDRED YAUCO PR

Cousin!!!! I have put some things together, and found I am Emmanuelli changed to emanuel here in the states after my grandfather was born. He was born in Hilo Hawaiihis father Emmanuelli left them there on their way to the us via ship that ran into trouble...There was no intention to stop in Hawaii, but the ship had trouble. My gr-grandmother stayed there and eventually remarried. Either her or her daughter married someone on the island last name PIVA. I am to look for this person for more info, or her daughter Betty Emmanuelli Cooper who is here in Cal...and very much in her 90's. My mother knows her and her family, but my mother mixes up information...regardless ...I don't know what happened to him once he reached usa other than the changing of the name to emanuel.
So....How did I do?...I would like any info about this please...
I hope this finds you well Eduardo, it has been some time...I know your email was updated...and I hope you get this.
Also there is a posr in another language...could that partain to me? My family did come from XCorse..with a french background yet from Puerto Rico...I am really excited!!
ok!! bye

Hello Wendy, I want you to know that I am still looking for that Hawaii-Puerto Rico connection. I have not found anything yet. How is your research? Are you getting anywhere?

Eduardo

You are not going to believe this but I just read this note and it was posted over eight years ago. I should have checked Ancestry sooner. My "FTM" tells me that Norberto is 3rd and 4th cousin, a few times removed. Write me at EEmmanuelli@aol.com to see if we can help each other.

Both my grandaprents on my father's side carried the emmanuelli name. he was asdrubal ferdinand arzola emmanuelli and she was laura virginia emmanuelli negroni. can you please tell me more related to the heritage of this family? thanks...
