Hello,
Could anyone please tell me if there is a professional genalogist that can help me with certificates in the concejos of Coana and Folgueras? I know the dates that my ancestors were born, married, and died.
Thank you very much!
Best regards,

I have been researching my family up in Tineo and Cangas and there is a genealogist (my mother used her originally) that is based here but has an associate out of Oviedo that does the leg work for her.

I can get you her website but fair warning; as I've discovered many church records and padrones prior to 1800 were destroyed by the French, depending on the concejo, paroquia and town.

Let me know.

Hello,
Thank you very much for your reply. I did find someone I am happy with. He has been very helpful and was able to find me a lot of information on my ancestors.
Yes, I do know the French when Napoleon's troops invaded Spain destroyed many church books. I ran into that researching in Cataluña.
Thank you again!
