Surname: gurrola
-------------------------

Hey, all you wonderful Gurrola's, my family is from Jerez, Zacatecas. My
father's name was Antonio Gurrola and my mother's name is Maria Benuelos
Gurrola.Gurrola is a very unique name. If you want to research the family
history, it would be helpful to know that it is Basque. Our ancestors come
from the northern part of Spain.The name was originally "Gurri" and ola
is added at the end which means "house of" Gurri. Apparently the i was
dropped and thats how we got our name.

My newphew just came from Spain and did some research, so, this is legitimate
infomation. If you want more info, e-mail me @ .

Hey, hope this helps.

Margaret Gurrola Hernandez, Chino, CA.
