The origin of the Sayo family can be traced back to Don Juan Sayo Hernández (June 16, 1694, Barrio Taal, Quingua (now separated as Pulilan), Bulacan - between 1764 and 1798, Salapungan, Quingua), son of José Hernández and Potenciana Jacobe. He passed his children his family name "Sayo", but without "Hernández", except for one of his sons, Juan Sayo Hernández y Lambot, who omitted "Hernández" later in his life. The Sayo family spread across Quingua (present-day Plaridel) and Pulilan, and even outside these towns.
This sub-project aims to organize genealogical data on the Sayo Family of the Philippines.
