Was Sifuentes changed to Sefonte in NZ?
I think it is likely and often wondered about this. My ex-husband's natural mother (he was adopted) was called Eileen Sefonte and I understand that she was from Chile. She is dead now but, having an avid interest in South American history and mother of her grandchildren, one of who looks decidedly Spanish, I am curious as she came to be in NZ. The Irish name used to puzzle me but that is not unknown in Chile and even in South America as Irish, like the Welsh were quite a presence.
Can anyone enlighten more on this family? I understand she had brothers as well.
