📚 Genealogy Book Recommendation

Many people have asked me about this book, so I wanted to share it here for anyone researching Puerto Rican genealogy.

“Antonio de los Reyes Correa: El Capitán – Breve Estudio Biográfico y Genealógico” by Dennis de Jesús Rodríguez explores the life and genealogy of Antonio de los Reyes Correa, a key historical figure in Puerto Rico.

If you're interested in Puerto Rican history, colonial-era families, or deeper genealogical research, this may be a valuable addition to your library.

📖 To inquire about available copies, you can contact the author directly:

Have you read this book or used it in your research? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

“Every woman who heals herself heals all the women who came before her — and all the women who come after her.”

Healing is not selfish.
It is generational work.

When a woman breaks patterns, sets boundaries, seeks truth, or chooses growth, she doesn’t just change her own life — she shifts the legacy of her family line.

In genealogy, I see it all the time. Generations of resilience. Silence. Strength. Survival.

Healing honors them. And it frees those who follow.

Your growth matters more than you realize. 🌿✨

Meet my 3rd great-grandmother, Juana Lugo Collado.

She was born around 1865 in San Germán, Puerto Rico, and passed away on 13 June 1957 in Cabo Rojo.

When I first discovered this photograph, I can’t even describe the excitement I felt. Finding images of our ancestors from the 1800s is rare—but what made it even more special was being able to show it to my grandfather.

He had never seen a picture of his great-grandmother before. Being able to place her face in his hands and say “This is her” is one of those genealogy moments that makes all the research worth it.

Those are the moments I live for.

If your family is from Cabo Rojo or San Germán, take a look at her family tree. You might find a connection or a clue for your own research.

✨ Speaking Engagement Testimonials ✨

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of speaking with organizations, genealogy groups, and community audiences about the power of discovering our family history.

Genealogy is more than names and dates — it’s about identity, connection, and healing. When we uncover the stories of our ancestors, we begin to understand our own place in history.

I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity to share this work and for the wonderful feedback from those who have attended my talks.

Here are a few reflections from past speaking engagements. 🌿

If your organization is interested in a 2026 program on genealogy, heritage, and family history, I’d love to connect.

Roots + Resilience = Community 🌳✨

Our roots ground us.
Our resilience carries us forward.
And together, they create something stronger than any one story — community.

In genealogy, we don’t just uncover names and dates.
We uncover strength. Survival. Migration. Faith. Sacrifice.

Every ancestor who endured hardship helped build the community we stand in today.

When we know where we come from, we understand how strong we truly are.

If you’re ready to explore your family’s story, I offer a free 30-minute consultation to help you begin.

Let’s discover your history — together. 🌿

Sometimes the journey to healing begins with a simple question:
Who were the women who came before me?

Through genealogy, we reconnect with the strength, resilience, and love of our ancestral mothers. Their stories still guide us today. ✨

This Women’s History Month, I’m honoring the women who held our families together — the matriarchs whose strength carried generations forward. 💜

They may not always be centered in the records, but they are the backbone of our family stories.

In my new blog post, “The Women Who Held the Family Together: Honoring Our Matriarchs,” I share reflections on tracing maternal lines in Puerto Rico, across the Caribbean, and throughout Latin America — and why this work is about more than documents.

It’s about remembrance.
It’s about healing.
It’s about saying their names.

That moment when your family tree starts looking more like a family wreath. 😅🌳

If you’ve researched Hispanic genealogy for more than five minutes, you’ve probably met the word: endogamy.

Small towns. The same surnames. Generations marrying within the same close-knit community.

And then one day… you discover your parents share a common ancestor.

Before anyone gasps — this was incredibly common in colonial and rural communities where populations were small and families stayed local. It’s not scandalous. It’s history. And honestly? It’s fascinating.

If your tree keeps looping back on itself, you’re not alone — and yes, I help untangle those branches.

Curious about your own family connections? I offer a free 30-minute consultation to talk through your goals and see how I can help.
