Can you tell me your father's name? Your grandfather was married to my father's sister. If you look in the photo album 1940-80 the last row of photos, the lady in the red sweater is my father's sister. Your grandfather is to the right of her.

yes, my father saw the picture and identified Angie and his father right away. My fathers name is Joe, and he was the oldest of Jose three sons. He had a younger brother named Richard, who died back around 1999. He also has a half brother, named Ray, who is a child of my grandfathers second marriage, which was to Angie. He also told me that he thinks he may remember you from childhood, but is unsure.

I remember him as Junie, and his brother Richie, and Raymond. I have a photo of your father around here some place. I'll look in my box of photos. I think everyone has a box of old photos.

Yes, that is him!! I believe he said that you were in Spelter? I met a man at my uncle Rich's funeral whose name is Caesar Bango(Bangs). Isnt he related to you also? Dad also wanted me to ask your fathers name. He says he thinks it is Helio?? Sorry for all the questions

Yes, Bangs is a half brother to my father . Helio was your grandmother's brother-in-law. His wife's name was Coca (sister to your grandmother). Of course all of the names are nicknames. They had a son, Sonny or Babe, both names are nicknames. His name is Angel and his dad's name was also Angel. His mother was Mary. My father's name was Edward, nicknamed Lalo. Hope you understand all of this. Sometimes it's hard for me to understand.

There was a Bango family that moved from West Virginia to Niagara Falls, too.
