So obviously these are really old photos. My Youngest sister is not even in the pictures and my younger brother Poy is always at home since he was pretty sickly as a baby.
MaEm (short for Mama Em, who is my auntie) lent me these pictures so i can have them scanned and printed out in Cagayan de Oro. I am so grateful she did because my biggest worry is that these would all be lost or damaged. Now i have them for posterity.
I am hoping that i will find more pictures from other family friends. I would want one of my father's dad, my Grandfather.
There used to be one of him but we could not find it now.
I will continue to get all these information together and maybe someday, one of the younger ones will be interested to know about our ancestors. Just like me.
In Manolo, you are looking for a Dumotan, you would be led to two people. My father, Carlito "Boy" and his brother who lives in Camp Phillips del Monte, Victor or "Vic".
The only other Dumotan family i know of is our relative in Dalirig, Uncle Rudy.
Where the Dumotan name comes from i am not really sure of. Recently though i have been told that the origin is Muslim. I still have yet to find out more about it.
