Most Pinoys with Spanish ancestry are concentrated in Manila or Cebu...and Zamboanga to some extent.
And I think Northern Luzon too, like Illocos has a lot of Spanish ancestry.
Lol, I remember my mom told me that they had to change my grandma's family's
maiden name because it was so Spanish sounding and that it was during the time
when the Spanish was getting kicked out of the country.
I also met my grandma's sister years ago who lived in Pangasinan and she looked
more Spanish than Filipino cause she has a lighter skin color and had more Spanish
features.
