The history of the last name Sabando

The surname SABANDO has its origins in the Spanish language and is believed to have originated in the region of Andalusia, Spain, during the medieval period. The name is thought to be derived from the Arabic word "sabanda," which means "fine linen" or "silk cloth." This suggests that the earliest bearers of this surname may have been involved in the textile trade or the production of high-quality fabrics.

One of the earliest recorded instances of the SABANDO surname can be found in the archives of the city of Seville, dated back to the 15th century. These records mention a certain Juan SABANDO, who was a prominent merchant and landowner in the region. Additionally, there are references to the SABANDO family in the historical documents of the city of Cordoba, indicating their presence and influence in this area as well.

During the 16th and 17th centuries, the SABANDO surname began to spread beyond the borders of Andalusia, as members of the family migrated to other parts of Spain and the Spanish colonies in the Americas. Notable individuals bearing this surname include Diego SABANDO, a military officer who fought in the Spanish conquest of Mexico in the early 1500s, and Alonso SABANDO, a Jesuit priest who established several missions in the region of present-day Colombia in the mid-1600s.

In the 18th century, the SABANDO surname found its way to the Philippines, which was then a Spanish colony. One of the earliest recorded instances of this name in the Philippines is that of Domingo SABANDO, a wealthy landowner and businessman who lived in the city of Manila in the late 1700s.
