No, I'm sorry I'm not, at least not as far as I know!! I know the Castro name
originated in Spain and of course the Spainards did plenty of conquering including old
world Mexico which is where my ancestors come from (presently Texas and Mexico)
My Grandfather Castro came from the Fort Worth, Texas area as did generations before him
as I'm told and my grandmother came from Mexico. I would suspect the Castro and
Locastro names are derived from one another somehow but at this time I don't know the
history. Maybe thats something I should try to look into. If you have any more info let me
know. My e-mail address will be changing to M.Castro(a)attbi.com very soon, if you would
like to communicate further please keep this address handy.
