Here is a very simple Caban family tree based on the work done by John, before he died. John did some pretty extensive research into the Caban family tree, even going around some of the parish churches looking near Barceloneta and La Florida, in Puerto Rico. He was looking for what ever family records he could find. From his work he compiled this information:

So, in actual fact, Grandpa & Grandma Caban were first cousins. Their children are -

a. Louis Caban
b. Germen de Luz, Jaime Caban
c. Eduviges Caban Jr.
d. Daisy Ann Caban

My research on the Caban lines is slowly making progress. I joined Ancestry.com and am coming across assorted census material, but other people who are descendants of Grandpa Caban's siblings have also gotten in touch with me. They've sent pictures and you can really see family features carried down through time, though we are all flung far and wide!
