Mr. Davila, maybe the full name with first and second name is “Blas - De La Candelaria - Davila”. The surname Candelaria is a very predominant last name in Utuado. One modern female major of utuado was Candelaria. Most probably started in Arecibo and then when Utuado was founded the Candelarias’ starting buying farms inland. Tetuan is the Moorish name for a harbor city in Morocco. Don Alonso the sector where my family comes from the Don Alonso in Canary Islands. Of course the name itself Candelaria comes from the town Candelaria in Tenerife, Canary Islands. Originally the last name was “De la Candelaria or de Candelaria” a toponimic name. My dna group, as of many folks from the area of Utuado and Jayuya is e1b1b1b2 (Iberian-Berber Modal). That places me exactly between the Canary Islands and Morocco.
