Cordona, Rosita Maria

A couple of things. It is not a good idea to put your private information
(address or phone numbers) in emails to the group because the message forums
are public. Do you want me to delete your message?

With regards to your statements below:

1) Make a freedom of information act request for EVERYTHING available for
your relative
2) Seems that the closest mainland point to Bannacca (on an island right?)
is Trujillo and that is where I would start by ordering some film:

Good luck,
