============================================================

One evening I came from the school . my mother prepared a dinner for grandpa Amando and Tatay Cesar Penaso who just came from Davaohe will be travelling to Ubay tomorrow and he dropped at the house together with Amando Ursos 
After dinner Iwent inside my room the door of my room was just next to the place where they were having their dinner
  "Are you going to sleep na Rey? Tatay cesar inquired " Not yet i just read my booksmy short reply I can hear their conversation very well

Iti Amando?    yes? replied Amando   How is your leggal litigation in the court of Butuan for the claims of Inay Juana

     Well..... its very frustrating  said Amando
      Why?  asked TatayCesar
      Our Attorney Atty Sarabosing had hard enough to win the civil case   Manding Rosela Villareal is about to give up she was drained with her financial resources now the case is costly she is paying Atty Sarabosing during the court proceedings.. Its been a long time now I understand her
      How about you askAmando to Cesar
       With Gods blessing my children have completed their college
        Grace is now working with the government.
        What office? asked Amando
          Customs replied tatay Cesar


     How is she related to Itay Iyong? because the full name of Itay Iyong is IRENEO VILLAREAL URSOS tHE vILLAREAL We ll... The Villareal families and Villanueva families of Butuan are related..  I asked my friend Dado Villanuevaabout it..  he said  the Villareal families were originally from Mexico they came to Cebu during the Galleon Trade from Acapulco to Manila But they dont stay in Manila because there is no gold and spices in Manila - that is their mission why they came to the PhilippinesFrom Manila they moved to Maa Mindoro Mindoro has no gold too  until thy came to Toledo Cebu, the traditional source of Gold duringSpanish times
        Further they moved to Butuan because there is more gold in the towns along the Agusan River specially the Kasapa River rich in Spices if not Gold.  Back to your question...  The mother of Itay Iyong is a Villareal somewhere in Cebu.

  thats why his name is Ireneo Villareal Ursos . The original Ursos came from Antique of nearby Panay Island from Cebu

        When Itay Iyong joined the Prysbeterian missionaries of Alexander Graham ( the author of the Daily Bread) he was reported by the priest reading the bible It was a serious crime during those times to read the bible. It was during the Amarican Spanish War here in the Philippines. Thee americans supported the filipino revolution against Spain......  so they accused Itay Iyong helping the americans and so he became the enemy of the Spanish Audencia he became wanted  by the Guardia Civil( the Spanish Police force)  The Villareal family helped Itay Iyong escape from the Guardia Civil until he came to Butuan 
                In Butuan he saw Juana Dumaplin and he courted her. Well....... Juana was a mestiza Manobo Portuguese.....  her father was one of the datu of the Manobo tribe   her mother came from the Roca families of Ubay the family of ship builders in Sangley Point of Cavite they came to Ubay when one of the captain of the boat from the Roca family in Sangley came to the port of Ubayand bought a piece of land.

       Inay Juana is a Bae to the Manobo Tribe it means she was their beautiful princess

       When Juana was assigned by the Spanish priests to the church of Ubay . Ireneo was desperate

He wanted to go with Juana.   This coincides with the plans of the Prysbetrian Mission to educate the people of Bohol Island about the bible They offered Ireneo as a bible preacher for the island of Bohol  Ireneo accepted the offer

      One day Ireneo Villareal Ursos took a voyage from Butuan to Cebu his plan is to ride a boat from Cebu to Bohol later

       In the mids of the sea.... a storm occured. The catain of the boat decided to hide the boat in Pitogo Island near Ubay
        So they came to Pitogo Island.  Itay Iyong stayed there until the   storm had gone
         After the storm  Ireneo crossed the strait by a small boat to Ubay and he saw Juana again athe church of Ubay He continued his cortship to Juana unil it was developed into a true love

           TheRoca families of Ubay the relatives of her mother favored Ireneo to be her husband

         Peace at last came to the Philippines. the Spanish was defeated by the americans and Emelio Aguinaldo became the president of the Phillipine Republic    therefore  Ireneo now is free to roam around to teach he people of Bohol to read the bible. He went by foot house to house teaching of the biblethroug the road from Ubay to Tagbilaran

       Ireneo and Juana got marriedand they settled in Tagaluahan Basiao of Pitogo Island their first baby was born they called him Albino it means Mestizo baby like his motherthe second baby was born they called him Federico nicknamed Dikoy then a beautiful baby girl was born wit similar beauty with her mother they called her Perfcctua  nickname Manding Tua the third child was born they called her  Felomina nickname Minay
Then another son was born they called him Federico nickname Dikoy and another son was born they called him Doroteo nickname Dorot
Another son was born but he died he was called Sixto Again another son was born he was called Sergio the next son was called Ricardo   nickname Cadong   then anoter baby girl was born the called her Persida  then again another baby girl they called her Esperanza nicknameA boy was born they called him Benjamen  Peran  then another  baby boy was born thy called him Amando

Ireno continued his mission to teach all the people of Bohol   to read the bible  until their youngest child was born a baby girl they called her Rosita

When the kids had grown up    Ireneo divided the responsibilities for each of them

Albino's interest was buying and selling so he became a businessman of the family . Federico or Dikoy was interested in farming... so Dikoy provided the family with supply of food from the farm Dorot was interested in the sea He provided the family with food from his catch from his fishing

 Manding Tua and Minay were in charge in the preparation of the church before the Worship Service because Ireneo Ursos established a church to come for all the people that he converted in his bible preaching.   Benjamen was interested in carpentry he became a carpenter at the same time a bible preacher  Amando had a golden voice he became a vocalist inthe Ursos Rondalla the Ireneo Ursos had established  Rosita the youngest just assisted Manding Tua and Minay in arranging flowers in the church.
