Micheal!!!!!! I am so glad you found me!!! I have been trying to contact you for months now....I have managed to upload the majority of my known Orella history to a family tree at Ancestry.com....I lost contact with the Orella newsletter as well.

Any input on the Orella's would be MOST appreciated!

Stacy: What is your email address? You know Elizabeth Hvolboll in Santa Barbara, I think? She is our "matriarch"and has done an enormous amount of work on the Orellas. Do write me at my email address and tell me what in particular you'd like to know. Uncle Tony (Antonio) Orella was your great grandfather or gg grandfather, I believe? Michael
Hi all, Mark Tautrim here, owner of Orella Ranch in Santa Barbara. Bruno was my great-great grandfather. Elizabeth Hvolboll is my aunt (my mother, Luzena's) sister. And, hello there, Cousin Michael. It's been quite awhile.

Michael and Elizabeth are the two most likely to know the history of the family, along with Elizabeth's son, Eric.

I am fortunate to have been raised on Orella Ranch since a youngster and have raised both my kids, Kimberly and Guner here. Guner is living on the ranch now with his wife Heidi and two sons, Sequoia and Kai, and Kimberly is living in Spain near Rota with her husband and two kids, daughter Marley and son Zeppelin.

Good luck! (My email is dozer@silcom.com)
Hi Mark! Happy New Year to you and Suzy! I am looking forward to Elizabeth's BIG 80th Birthday April 2nd--and to reading her book of memoirs. See you then, if not before. Cheers, Michael
