Tamargo/Artime

[j0ellen71]

Hello, all!

I'm new to this community, and I'm very excited to have found it.
I look forward to browsing the forums, learning more about my heritage, and interacting with other members.

My father (2nd generation Asturian-American) and I have been trying to put together a more detailed family tree to pass on, and I haven't been able to find any information prior to my Great-Grandparents' arrival in Moundsville, West Virginia from Spain.
I have hope that maybe someone here might be able to help guide me in the right direction, or better yet, have some answers!

Following a guideline (http://www.asturianus.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2409) from Art, the site Administrator, I have the following information to share:

*My Great Grandfather was Joseph (Jose) Tamargo, born approximately 1891 in Asturias, Spain, and died approximately 1931 in New York City.

*My Great Grandmother was Elvira Artime, born approximately 1890 in Asturias, Spain, and died approximately 1955 in New York City.

*They had seven children in all, but the first two were born in Spain, and came to the U.S. in approximately 1913. Their names were Joseph & Gladys Tamargo and were born in 1909 and 1911, respectively.

*They went on to have Helen, Elzise (Elvira), Enriquita (Harriet, my Grandmother), Celestino (Charles) and Gabino (Jobino) in West Virginia.

*At the time of the 1930 U.S. census, the lot of them resided in New York City.

Again, I am so happy to have found this community and look forward to continuing participation.
What a wonderful place you've created here!

Regards,
Jo

Hi, Jo,
I had a aunt who lived at Donora, PA:,Primitiva (Arrojo) Tamargo. She had one son, Joe, who also lived in Donora and operated Tamargo Pepsi (Mon Valley Pepsi Company). His father died before my time, so I never knew him. If you check out the Photo Album, I added a photo of my aunt standing beside his grave stone.
