Posted by msolis83  --  NAME: Maria Capistran-Solis on 05/16/03 at 8:06 AM Subject:   Capistrano ancestry My father's last name is Capistran. However, he says that his ancestors' last name used to be Capistrano; that somewhere along the way, the "o" was dropped accidently. My father was born in Matamoros, Tamaulipas, Mexico. He has mentioned that his ancestors are originally from Spain. What do you know about the origin of the Capistrano last name? Thanks, Mary Follow Ups:
