Great finding, Art! The Victoria cigarette machine was invented precisely by the Victorero brothers from Lastres, who became wealthy in Mexico and had to go into exile after Pancho Villa took over. See my initial post about the Victorero documentary on TV.

Qué gran hallazgo, Art. La máquina de cigarrillos Victoria la inventaron precisamente los hermanos Victorero de Lastres, que se hicieron ricos en México y se tuviero que exiliar cuando llegó al poder Pancho Villa. Ver mi post inicial sobre el documental de televisión sobre los Victorero.

Actually, Terechu, I think it was your message that got Harvey's attention. If you have any more information on the Victorero brothers or the invention, I'm sure Harvey would be interested.

En realidad, Terechu, creo que era tu mensaje que llamó al attención de Harvey. Si tienes otra información más sobre los hermanos Victoreros o la invención, estoy seguro que le interesaría mucho a Harvey.

Hello, I am a descendant of the Victorero last name. My Grandfather on my mom's side of the family was a Victorero. He was born, raised and lived in Camaguey, Cuba, until He along with my Mom, Aunt, Uncle and Grandmother moved to America. Unfortunately my grandfather passed away before being able to gather much information on the name from him. So I have been looking on the net for any information and am glad to have stumbled upon this site.

Hello,
My name is Elodie Victorero. I've been researching on my grandfather and his family for a little bit, but I'm new at this and I don't really know where to look. His name was Manuel Victorero, he escaped Spain and went to France because of the civil war. I know for a fact that his step-brother told on him and that his own father was shot because he woudn't give his son. My grandfather died 10 years ago and I was too young to ask him questions, and on the other hand, he never spoke about it, because it was too painful.
Anyway, I'm hoping someone could help on my research.
Thank you.

Bienvenida, Elodie:

En la guía telefónica hay unos cuantos Victorero en Luces, Lastres. Te envío el link, por si quieres ponerte en contacto con alguno. Teniendo en cuenta que la generación de tus padres está desapareciendo, no pierdas tiempo y ven a Asturias en persona. Estoy segura que encontrarás más parientes de lo que pensabas.

Welcome Elodie!

There are several VIctoreros in Luces, Lastres, in the phone book. Here's the link, in case you want to contact any of them. Considering the fact that your parents' generation is disappearing, don't waste time and come to Asturias in person. I'm sure you'll find more relatives than you imagined.

Il y a plusieurs Victoreros dans les Luces, Lastres, dans le livre de téléphone. Voici le lien, si vous voudriez les contacter. En vue du fait que la génération de vos parents disparaît, ne perdez pas le temps. Venez vous-même en Asturias. Je suis sûr de que vous trouverez plus de parents que vous avez imaginé.

One possible source of information can be found at http://www.ldelpino.com/hidalg.html Keep in mind that many surnames have multiple origins. You might want to explore the rest of Luis del Pino's site as well.

Bob bonjour,

je suis allée voir le lien mais il ne fonctionne plus. N'en as tu un autre SVP?

Merci par avance.
