Hi Alfred, Thank you for that little piece of information. I know that our ancestors came from someplace near Sancoale. But I heard that they had to run away as an ancestor had the audacity to ride his horse through a Catholic procession - how far this is true, I have no idea, but a plague seems to be more plausible. Dr Ananta, I believe, used to say we descended from a Naique family. Gabriel.
