Dear friends and family . . . As we start a new year, Somos Primos is
expanding its' international networking. Angel Custodio Rebollo, our
columnist from Spain, is coordinating a new _International Networking_
column.

Somos Primos contacted over thirty historical and genealogical societies
from Spanish/Portuguese speaking countries. Angel will compile the
information from the queries each month. This issue we have surname
contact requests from Venezuela, Peru, Mexico, and Brazil.

May 2007 be your best year for gathering family records and honoring the
lives of your grandparents.

Sincerely, Mimi
