I have a book all about the Paniaguas that I bougth a few years back. I love my last name because a lot of people have strange names too such as baca(cow).

Hi Mandy !!! And a HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!

Just one Question ¿¿??
Where can I get the Book ???
Who wrote it ???
Im really willing to buy the book; where can I find It ???
... I have headr this Historys about the LastName :
1.- From my understanding the name was derived from Spain. Supposedly there was a group of people who where nomadic and would go from town to town asking for bread and water, hence the name Paniagua. It doesn't sound too cool I know, but that what I know.
2.- There used to be a noble family that were the favorites to the king of Spain the other royalties were very jelous of them and so they nicknamed "los paniaguados" meaning they were given everthing, bread and water
This next one is why thay are in America....
3.- I heard about the last name, that came from spain and then that all the paniaguas were sailors, so spanded to america

Im Trying to build a Family Tree ... I have one branch from an ant "de los Santos" Branch all the way up to 1400 .. not quite sure she told me so... I have to build it in the computer... but Hey I was looking for the Paniagua Branch and history and got the other one....

Anyways I would aprechiate all the Information I can get from the Paniagua's ... Thanx...

I no longer have the book because i give it to a cousin for his project. he was so happy to get it. I only remember a book about history sent me a letter about the book but that was like 10 years ago. all i wrote is all i remenber. i am sorry about getting your hopes up. when i was in orlando fl a lady said she could look up any family name. but that was a few years back too. once more i am sorr but i hope your search will do good. it's good you have pide of your name. when i was little i was teased about my name. well i am sorry. good luck on your search!!!!!
