Learnt some exciting news today even though I have no idea as yet how on earth we are going to get any benefit from it. There exists biographies written about brother and sister, Dr. Pedro Luis & Carmen Luisa de Montbrun, first son and second daughter of Dr Domingo & Emilia de Montbrun KNT of Trinidad. Dr. Pedro Luis de Montbrun would have been my Great Grandfather.

Carmen Luisa's Biography information is as follows:
