THE REGALAS OF SASMUAN, PAMPANGA


The first contact I received from a Regala from Sasmuan, Pampanga was from Wilhelmina (Wilma) Regala, who is a daughter of the late General Jose Dizon Regala. Wilma and another sister resides in London, England. She provided me with a partial family tree of their branch of the Regalas of Sasmuan, beginning with her grandfather, Isaac Regala. I initially named this the "Isaac Regala Branch".  Recently, I received some data from Tomas Bacala about the Regalas of Lubao, which indicated that Isaac Regala, along with a sister, Simeona, were born in Lubao and their parents were Timoteo Regala and Gregoria Alfonso; their grandfather, Timoteo Regala was a son of Luis Regala and Leoncia Garcia of Lubao. I also received a partial family tree from another branch of Regalas of Sasmuan provided by Allan Regala, who is from a Regala branch from Floridablanca. This was obtained by Allan's brother from Ben Regala Mallari, grandson of Daniel Regala.  The next contact was with Ben Regala Mallari himself.  In January and February 2000 I was in contact with Marichie Banting-Leavitt and her mom, Teresita Regala-Laxa.  Again, in January 2002 Maria Banting-Leavitt provided updates and corrections to the Fabian Regala Branch.  In February 2002 Marianne L. Banting provided some corrections and updates to the Fabian Regala Branch.  The latest contacts were in August and September 2003 from Leo Baltazar, Ciel Cena Luy, and Risza Bernardo, who are direct descendants of Francisco Baltazar and Benigna Regala.  Leo, Risza, and Ciel provided several updates on the descendants of Benigna Regala.
