Los Batiz: from Peñuelas?
For the first time this year, we have confirmed that the ancestors of the Batiz family came from Peñuelas before settling in Ponce, Puerto Rico.
As Kamey and I have discovered, our common ancestor, Antonio Batiz Oliveras, lived in the Puerto Rican town of Peñuelas before settling, establishing a plantation, and owning many acres of land and several large houses all over town.
.
.
Antonio's elder sons, Joaquin, Jacinto Roque and Efrain were all born from his relationship with Aracelia Olivera, in the rural barrio of Peñuelas called Rucio. Documented as illegitmate, Antonio later marries Aracelia, legitimizing the boys.
Years later, Aracelia passes away and Antonio remarries in Ponce with Hortencia Mas Toro, also from Peñuelas. Together, they have Rigoberto, Julio Enrique, Pedro Juan, Eva who died very young), Ada, Jose (Pepe), Amparo and Aida. They all lived in a large house, in "La Quinta", in the rural barrio of Marueño, and in their large multi-floor home on Calle Villa in the heart of Ponce.
