Philippine civil registration (Spanish Colonization Era)

Requested from NAP by L. Esteves at 03:41 PM on Jan 29, 2023.
Purpose: Research of Family Genealogy
Date of Coverage: 01/01/1760 - 01/01/1870
Tracking no: #NAP-176210198504

Esteves 03:41 PM, Jan 29, 2023 

Hi!

My name is Leinard Esteves, I am trying to trace down my genealogy since most of the records have been lost. Our family has a deep history rooted in Bicol and I am so close to figuring out my first ancestor who settled in Gubat which was founded in 1760. Unfortunately my research got halted at around 1800-1850 since this information is no longer available online.

I'm requesting for a copy of Philippine Civil Registration, to look for any record of my great, great, great grandfather named Eustaquio Esteves.

I hope that you can help me out! Thank you!

Best Regards,
Leinard Esteves
