Hola Familia and all those interested in Puerto Rico Ancestry,
Today I’m excited to share this 1849 Foreigners Census, Naguabo, Puerto Rico.
Here I can see my direct relations.
This document details where they come from, age, marital status, height, eye color,
type of nose, hair color, and job.
Pedro Hernandez and Lucia Pinero, (my 3rd paternal great grandparents)
all are listed as coming from Seiba (interchangeable with Ceiba).
I am a descendant of Ramona Hernandez Y Pinero.

To clarify: *Rafaela Mijon Y Rivera (my paternal grandmother)

• her mother, *Juana Rivera Y Hernandez, (my paternal great grandmother)
• her grandmother, *Ramona Hernandez Y Pinero, (my paternal 2nd great grandmother)
• her great grandparents, Pedro Hernandez and Lucia Pinero (my paternal 3rd great grandparents)
  So here are the details:
  *Pedro Hernandez, Age 55, Married, Regular Height, Black Eyes, Streamline Nose, Black Hair, Laborer
  *Lucia Pinero, Age 49, Married, Regular Height, Black Eyes, Streamline Nose, Gray Hair, Laborer
  Jose Gregorio, Age 24, Single, Short, Black Eyes, Regular Nose, Black Hair, Laborer
  Wenceslao, Age 20, Single, Regular Height, Black Eyes, Regular Nose, Black Hair, Laborer

  Juana, Age 7, Single, Regular Height, Blue Eyes, Regular Nose, Black Hair, Laborer
  *Ramona, Age 5, Single, Regular Height, Black Eyes, Regular Nose, Black Hair, Laborer.

Family traits such as height, eye color, and hair color fascinate me!
I hope you are all enjoying these facts about my ancestors as much as I am.
