- Details
- Written by: Bernard Punzalan
Help us help you and your family remember YOUR NAMES and honor YOUR stories!
We are still collecting stories from Chamorro's living abroad to incorporate into the Chamorro Diaspora seminar that I will facilitate during the Festival of Pacific Arts (FestPac) May 22, 2016 - June 4, 2016.
Here are some ideas we suggest to help you put together your story :
• Name and family name (clan name if known too)
• Which village and island the person/family originates
• Accomplishments while at home
• When did the person/family emigrate?
• What was the impetus for leaving?
• Accomplishments while away from home?
• How many generations/descendants since the person/family’s arrival?
• Name, phone number and email of person submitting the biographical information
• Include family photos
Please email your story and photos to:
Please send as soon as possible to ensure we incorporate and memorialize your story! Si Yu'os Ma'ase.
...or let us help you write your story with any of our Chamorro Diaspora Project Team members:
Bernard Punzalan
Mario Borja
Trish Shook
Vince Diaz
Here's a simple sample two-page story:

Håfa Adei!

At FoCHA, I will be conducting a Chamorro Roots Genealogy Project Workshop that promptly starts at 3:30pm! So please if can, come by and learn to navigate the Chamorro Roots website as well as experiencing the demonstration of these cool genealogy E-Books!
I will be offering this FoCHA Tengguang Special at a deeply discounted price. Hope to see you there!

This is just a sample screenshot of what you can expect when selecting the option, “Dates and Anniversaries.” Typically you will see tables of births, deaths, marriage and other recorded events.
