I may not be of much help to you as I am looking my self.
My name is Darwin Plata my great great grand father Seledonio Plata and his brother(name unknown)came to Trinidad WI. to escape conscription in the Venezulian Army sometime around 1811.All I know is that they came from a town in Venezula called Maturin.I was told by an elderly relative that the family started in Spain and extended into such areas as Argentina, Purto Rico and some of the other caribbean islands.
