George Verduzco Abril

AKA: Blackey.

On ancestry tree, if you will want to know this, my tree is a auto site actively researching family trees. And I will make changes, at any given time. Before making confirmation. I will ear mark it like this ( " " )
My family story came for me about some 48 years ago. It all started for me back in winter 1970's, where I spent most of my time in libraries. What really started me off by writing my family story. It was back in 1972 when I was in the US Navy. On one of my tours oversea I happen to run into people with my same last name of Abril, Verduzco and Rodrigues. In Hawaii on the big island of Kona, Maui, then I found my same name of George Abril on the island of Oahu, also found had family with same name on the road to Hana, at some Island shack cafe in up country areas. I happen to run into some of generations ancestor descends of the old the The Hawaiian cowboy, or as most knew them as Paniolo's. The name "Paniolo" The Hawaiian could not say the name of Español. So the islander just called "Paniolo". Paniolo, they were direct descendant of the vaquero of California and Mexico. And when I was in Hawaii, in the this where it all really started for me Hawaiian Mexican cowboys names that came to Hawaii to help the priest with that came to the island years ago as a gift to the King of Hawaii of the time was Kamehameha. Hawaiian Etymology believe "Paniolo" is a Hawaiianized pronunciation of Español. The Hawaiian language had no sound, and all syllables and words must end in a vowel. So the Mexican cowboys got it's name the name of Paniolo, for the Vaquero. learned their skills from Mexican vaqueros. When I came back from overseas, I found myself in many books, I started reading was influenced my Aunt Delores Lester Abril and my Uncle Gabe Abril wife when she let me read one of her books called the Californios, and some of the louis l'amour books. And must later more books of the old west of Louis L'Amour. Mount Diablo California, Some days back my father told me a story of Manuel Abril and Gabriele Ruiz she was of the Ruiz family her father On my grandmothers side of my father Manuel R. Abril Lands of Ruiz family, The Rancho, Lands in California, most about a rancho that was called Rancho Los Manzanitos and Rancho Los Nietos along with many other Rancho Mission churches from, Many of the Franciscan and Jesuit Spanish missions in Mexico in Arizona, along many other Mission like The Mission of Saint Xavier of the Water, old Spanish Mexico missions, the Mexicanos timeline, they never built mission the closes thing to a mission was around 1812 All the old missions of Mexico of to today were built Spanish in New Mexico New Mexico , This took me to write the España of the government archives in City in Castile and Leon. Cities like Valladolid, Salamanca, Zaragoza and Toledo. But the city that I found most of my family names, was in two cities called Valladolid, Salamanca with Salamanca, having the most City in Castile and León, Spain near the mountain of Leon and Castile, I found many of my family name near or around these mountain Picos, Sistema Ibérico. other place in Spain like Galicia, Asturias, Cantabria, the Basque Country, La Rioja, Aragon, Castilla–La Mancha, the Community of Madrid and Extremadura. Which I found out that most of my Abril and Rodrigues roots, came from family of Rodrigo at that time all family name having to with the name Rodrigo that government and the archives of España of year of 1230. Later I found old Español troop in the Philippine had family names, as well Guam, and almost all of Micronesia islands people had also had my family names. My paper work and files of all my research was all set aside. Because, everything it had learned about was just on paper work of my history up to about the late 1800's, never really forgetting about it. It was pick up again for me around the time when everything started flying once again I believe it was in the1980's. Something new was invented for computers. you probably remember those noisy sounds the computer modems made. they made to sign onto the NET at that time it was very slow it had about a speed of 300 bits per second or 300 bauds and the fax system took about four hours to transfer information as picture to data files. So remember again, Many of the names could be weeded out from round my trees, removed or changed and put in the right spots on many of my family trees at any given time. Actively Researching: One thing, I do want you to know, is If you have the surname, you are all related to the same surname in history. The Primary Surnames, I am looking for.
Abril, Acedo, Andrade, Bustamante, Gracia, Garcia, Huerta, Verduzco, Ruiz, Rodriguez, Morales, Gomez, Luque, Bravo, Moreno, Nunez. 
The secondary Surnames: I am looking for.
Coronado, Blanco, Celaya, Cota, Camacho, Lara, Moro, Ochoa, Pacheco, Torres. Tapia, Ortega, Barrera.

Here's what I found out about the History of the Verduzco family, they were carpenters and farmers. What he told me kinda shock me about the Verduzco name. Here is what he told me, the Verduzco who came to Mexico from the branch of this family was Polish, and that when the immigration agents arrived they didn't know how to pronounce his name and told him ′′ no Verdichevsky, I'm going to give you Verduzco. Take it or leave it?!" He accepted the surname , and so the Verduzco de Zamora Michoacán, were born.
