Good morning, I am looking for my biological father. I believe you are closely related to him. Would you please contact me. XXXXXX
......
One more piece of information for you as I know you are taking a risk to reach out. I was adopted. My biological mother did not tell him that she was pregnant. They were both students at University of Arizona in Tucson. He was in the military. She described him as very intelligent, funny, serious and quiet. He loved sports and reading. He was 22, 5’6” and 150 pounds. Puerto Rican.
......
I don't have access to your dna profile. Have you looked at my family trees? I have two (screwup) Domingo Soto and Domingo Soto-Mendez. What year was it when he was 22? Was he in the military (branch?) while he was in college? I am not aware of any of my family members having lived in Arizona.
......
I will try to forward my DNA, not sure how to do that but will try. He was 22 in 1969. 5’6”, 150 lbs, blue eyes, dark brown hair. He was in the Air Force at Davis Monthan Air Force base in Tucson,AZ My closest match is Porfiria XXXXXX (managed by XXXXXX), however I don’t think she’s active on Ancestry
......
That sounds like my cousin Noel Rios Acevedo. Died in Viet Nam.
......
Oh my goodness, thank you!!!! I have a close dna match with XXXXXX on Ancestry. I noticed the name Narda in the pictures. Is that Noel’s sister? Thank you so much for sharing this. I really appreciate you.
......
Not Nardi, Narda
......
Good morning Domingo, it looks like (from the family tree) that I have a brother or a sister? Did Noel have a child before he went to Vietnam?
......
Narda, Porfiria, Peter (Pedro), and Sixto were raised together with (I think first Cousins) Noel and Iraida. Judging from their last names they were probably Chela's (Angelina) sibling's kids and went to live with Sixto and Chela while still in PR. Noel was MIA for a pretty long time. I will try to find some of the things I've written about it. I had a personal website and through it two of Noels kids showed up. I will try to find that out for you. Narda XXXXXX lives in Tampa. Porfiria just died.
Tio Sixto was, I think, the oldest male of the 13 siblings.
Our grandparents came from Utuado, Puerto Rico
