i believe you are talking about the de larrinaga family who owned a shipping company, possibly teodoro larrinaga

Hi, my mother’s grandparents - Leon Uribe Aberasturi and Maria de la Incarnacion Torcuato - came from the Basque region in Spain.

Leon, my great grandfather, was a sailor with the Larrinaga shipping line based in Liverpool. Maria was working for a Galician family called Garcia in one of the large boarding houses at 19 Hurst St in 1901.

The book “Liverpool Basque” by Helen Forrester is about the Basque families in Liverpool, one of which is mine.

Cheers,
Chris

Thanks Garstonite,

Yes, I’m sure that’s the Larrinagas.

If you carry on down the bay (Mundakako Itsasadarra) from Mundaka you will reach Gautegiz Arteagako, which is where my great grandfather’s family was from, just above Kortezubi.

I met a Larrinaga who descends from the shipping family in Cornwall last year. Small world!

Cheers,
Chris

Btw, I’m also a “Garstonite”, from the west end of Garston park near Whitehedge Road….
