My grandfather's name was Sterico and he was born in Gibraltar late 19th century. There is anothe family name of Pozo that may help me to link in with my grandfather. My mother was born in La Linea in 1929 and was evacuated with the whole family during the war. The family never returned to Gibraltar where they lived on Main Street. Is there anyone there who remembers the name Sterico or Pozo. Any information or where I can get details would be much appreciated. Thanks

I am also tracing my family. My father was named Augusto Gomez-Ruiz and lived at Gonzalez de la Vega No. 40, La Linea. From 1940-55. Does anyone know if this address still exists? He build this house with his father.
