Alcantara in Seattle, WA - originally from Southern CA
I have recently (in the last several years) become interested in the history of my surname.Since I don't know about much history of the family name past my Father I'm obviously curious.Several years ago I registered and received a book with the history, coat of arms and many other facts, directories, etc about the Alcantara name. A good deal of my friends have much more information than I do about their heritage and it would really be great to learn more than the simple history that is available.Besides it'd be awesome to meet and exchange stories with others bearing the same surname.
