Antonio and Antonia

Antonia Maltos?


We look at the newly discovered baptismal certificate with her name and the name of the newly born Antonio Maltos. We are searching for clues. 
Is she ours? But how could she not be?

We are new at this ancestor hunting. Less than a year ago we began looking for the long lost. Since then we have learned a lot. One thing we have learned is to look through the generations for resonances: patterns of place, jobs, neighbors, names. The same names repeating themselves through the aunts and uncles, sisters and brothers.


It makes sense that Antonia is ours.... Latino families don't have only children. Brothers and sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins .... Of course Jose Maria Maltos had family somewhere.
But where exactly?  


We are learning that when a window opens....a new mystery presents itself. 


Now we search for Antonia Maltos.
