Mi Abuelita!!! 💝 My Grandmother! 💝 She was a SAINT!!!! 😇 "MAMA ELÉNA", to all!

My Adopted Mother- Jean D´Arcy Maculaitis, informed me, whilst visiting, "The Morro"/ "The Fort: in San Juan, Puerto Rico, on 22 Dec., 2013, that our Grandmother Ana Elena Tossas (Correa) used to play there, in her childhood, as any child would play in a playhouse. And that her Uncle was a caretaker, there and had even, set up a room for her to nap in, should she get tired, during her visits. Adopted Mom said, ""She grew up here" and "Mama Elena was so proud of her Uncle and would describe him, with his "White Mane" on his "white horse", riding here."" Mama Elena also, had a shock white mane, at a very young age (in her 20´s). Another story, I was told by Adopted Mom was, how my Grandparents met, at a hotel nearer to towards town, from "The Morro", Puerto Rico. She said, "Papa Tossas (our Grandfather) was down on the street and saw and heard Mama Eléna playing guitar and singing, with a flower in her hair, from a 2nd story window in a Hotel. He was so compelled to meet her and therefore, ran in and up, to locate this vision and proceeded to court her, immediately!"

The Correa Family (Rodriguez-Ocasio)

Updated May 7, 2002

About Our Family Research

Research has been able to place my family ancestry as follow's:

CORREA-The Royal House of Castile and Leon in Spain, The Royal House of England, The Holy Roman Empire, The Royal House of Portugal and Iberian Peninsula.

CORREA IN PUERTO RICO The Correa Family Surname research has indicated that they first settled in Arecibo, Puerto Rico. The Villa of Captain Correa ( La Villa del Capitan Correa )speaks of a Spanish Military Captain that fought and defeated a British invasion in Arecibo, Puerto Rico. He is my 8th Generation Great Grandfather on my Mothers Side. Details indicate that the family quickly spread to Isabela, PR and other surrounding towns. Details also indicate that the Correa family ties into the Colon family by way of Christopher Columbus.

CORREA IN THE ROYAL HOUSES OF SPAIN The lineage of Antonio El Capitan Correa on his mothers side (Francisca Menendez DeValdes), follows into The Royal Houses of Castile, Aragon, and Leon by way of his grandmother Isabel de Castro Hinestrosa, ( my 10th Generation Great Grandmother) to De La Cerda y Mendoza, down to King Alfonso X of Castile and Yolanda Aragon (my 15th Generation Great Grandfather and Grandmother), then to King Ferdinand III and Beatriz Von Hohenstaufen( my 16th Generation Great Grandfather and Grandmother), James I of Aragon , to Alfonso IX and Beregaria of Castile.

CORREA IN THE HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE Beatriz Von Hohenstaufen's ( my 16th generation great grandmother) father was The Holy Roman Emperor Philip of Swabia who married Irene of Byzantium ( my 17th Generation Great Grandfather and Grandmother). Philip of Swabia's father was Frederick I Barbarossa also Holy Roman Emperor and my 18th Generation Great Grandfather. Irene of Byzantium's father was Angelus Isaac II Emperor of Byzantium ( my 18th Generation Great Grandfather also). Frederick I married Beatrix of Burgundy.

CORREA IN THE ROYAL HOUSE OF ENGLAND Several members of the Royal Houses of Castile and Leon in Spain, married into the Royal Houses of England and Portugal. King Ferdinand III's (my 16th generation great Grandfather) father was Alfonso IX King of Castile and Leon whom married Berengaria of Castile (my 17th generation great grandfather and great grandmother under the Royal House of Castile). Berengaria's mother and father where King Alfonso VIII of Castile and Eleanor Plantagenet of the Plantagenets of the Royal House of England. They united the Royal House of Spain and The Royal House of England and numbered (my 18th Generation Great Grandmother and Great Grandfather). Eleanor Plantagenet's father was Fitz Empress King Henry II Curtmantle and her mother was Eleanor The Duchess of Aquitaine( my 19th generation Great Grandfather and great Grandmother under the Royal House of England).

CORREA IN THE ROYAL HOUSE OF PORTUGAL In regards to the Royal House of Portugal, King Alfonso IX ( whom, I mentioned previously as my 17th generation great grandfather) mother and father where, Ferdinand II King of Leon and Urraca of Portugal. This bought the Royal House of Leon to unite with the Royal House of Portugal. Urraca's father was Henriquez, Alfonso I King of Portugal. He married DeMaurienne Matilda of Savoy.
