Alfaro/Santana
I want to know if anyone knows anything about this family...
Benita Alfaro and Nicolas Santana both born in Mexico or Texas Had one son i know of:
Filiberto Santana born August 22, 1890 in Mexico or Texas.
Filiberto Santana and Theresa Gonzales born in Texas or Mexico. Had three Children one being my grand father:
Frank Gonzales Santana Born 4 Oct. 1919. Died January 25,1998. Franks two brothers and mother died the within the same year Frank was born.
From oral family history... Filiberto Santana was a bootleger... He was caught and his son Frank lived with the Gomez. When Filiberto was either done with time or escaped he lived in San Jose. Frank knowing that his dad lived there ran away from the Gomez family at age 15 to find his dad... He lived with his dad from then on... Frank then joined the Army in which he only served a year of then went AWOL... Filiberto helped Frank Hide. They both changed their name to Carlos Gomez. They both eventually moved to Red Top, California. To Hide Out. I have no proff of this, and i am really new to genealogy and i don't know where to go to look for this information... Thanks,
