| I would be interested in corresponding with the person who made this post in 2006 as to the Malaxetxebarria genealogy. My maternal grandfather is a Malaxetxebarria. He emigrated from Amoroto, Bizkai to Humboldt County, Nevada in 1896. |

"Malax" in old basque means "fertile" (referred also to a person), "robust".It may also mean "mill". So, typical of the Basque toponomy, "Malaxetxebarria" means "the mill of the new hose" or "the fertile of the new house". The origin of the name is traced to a placed near Markina in the Basque territory of Bizkaia, close to the village of Cenarruza-Bolibar. Still there is a beatifull "casherio" (basque rural house) with that name over there, whose current owners wouldŽnt sell it at any price.
I have a certified genealogical tree of Malaxetxebarria going back to the XVI century. |
