This website was created to join everyone interested in the history and genealogy of Centeno Families and to encourage contacts between its members. We provide a wide genealogical database and seek to collect all the information on the various family branches.

It is unlikely that today living Centenos all have a common ancestry. This is an ancian surname and it may have been taken at different times, by people with no direct family links. In any case, the total amount of Centenos in the world is relatively small, wherever the countries they living in. In Spain, where Centenos flourished, according to 2008 sensus, there are 12,689 people using this family name.

On this site you can find information on various branches of Centenos found in Spain, Portugal and several Latin American countries like Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, Peru, Puerto Rico, and others. Collected genealogical data are the result of researches carried out in historical archives and publications or the contributions received by members. The knowledge about the Centeno diaspora will be much better if you participate and send us the information you have.
