The Sainz family from Barre, VT in 1924 |
Sainz Family
The picture to the left is of my Grandfather as a baby with his mother, Florinda "Lita" (Perez) and his father and namesake, Manuel Sainz. I have very little information on the Sainz side as they didn't come into the U.S. until the 20s and my Spanish isn't yet good enough to trace them through Spain. I am fortunate to have some very good early photographs from my Grandparents including pictures of my great, my great-great and my great-great-great grandmother, something which I don't have on my Garceau side.
