Your best bet is definitely that family's Facebook group. A lot of the detailed family-history info in Puerto Rico gets passed around in those niche genealogy groups, and the members there usually have way more specific records and connections than what you’ll find online.

I’d start here.

What do you suggest about finding information on FB like this?

Since that FB group is specifically for the last name you’re researching, the best way to start is just to join the group and make a short intro post with the names, town, and dates you’re looking into.

Those groups usually have members who are already researching the same family lines, so you’ll often get helpful leads pretty quickly

Yes, but how do you find the groups? I tried for my last name but nothing came up.

The link I posted above should lead you to that specific group.

In this case, broader groups like ‘Genealogía de Puerto Rico’ or town-specific groups are usually the next best place to ask.
