The Longman name’s been around for very long time it used to own the largest publishing company in the world of England very well-to-do family that as my great great grandfather was kicked out of England and came to America doing this research I’ve learned a lot about my family on my father’s side for some other side I’ve had a dead-end but we will look at the Longman side on my wife’s we can go back to the Cortez but we will stay with the Longman’s

What I have learned
As I’ve done research on my family I have learned that my grandfather was a milkman.

What is next?
My plan is to keep researching. Learning more and more about my family’s history. Where we came why we did what we did. And whom we did it for. I have got back all the way to 1706 my research. There is no plan to stop. I want to leave a legacy that was inherited from the Longman family and pass it to mine in the future Longman’s

Uncle John Garcia and brother-in-law we have found roots back to Cortez
