Sandra Vergara is a Colombian actress and model. She was adopted by her maternal aunt, Margarita Sofía Vergara Davila, and Margarita’s husband, Julio Enrique Vergara Robayo.
Sandra is the biological cousin, and adoptive sister, of actress Sofía Vergara. Her nephew is Sofía’s son, internet personality Manolo González.
Sandra’s maternal grandfather was Hernando Vergara Galvis (the son of Alfredo Máximo Vergara Forno and Ana María Victoria Galvis Matamoros). Alfredo was the son of Jorge Vergara Párraga and Mercedes Forno León. Mercedes was of Italian or part Italian descent. Ana María was the daughter of José Benedicto Galvis and Victoria Matamoros.
Sandra’s maternal grandmother was Rosa Lila Dávila Barreneche (the daughter of Pedro Manuel Agustín Dávila Balti and Rosa Lila Barreneche Olaciregui). Pedro was the son of Juan Manuel Dávila Pumarejo, and of Venezuelan emigrant, Auristela Balti, of Maracaibo. The surname Balti is of Italian origin. Sandra’s great-grandmother Rosa was the daughter of Camilo Ernesto Mario Barreneche Díaz Granados and María del Rosario Olaciregui y Capella.

When I looked deeper into her ancestry, she has the following ancestries: Colombian and at least 1/16 Venezuelan [Spanish (Andalusian, Asturian, Canary Islander, Cantabrian, Castilian, Extremaduran, Leonese), Basque, Galician, possibly Catalan, remote Indigenous], small amounts of French, Italian (including Venetian), Indigenous Ecuadorian (Quechua), and Portuguese (including Azorean)
The surname Balti is of Italian origin.
Rosario’s first name is “María del”.
Same applies to Sofía Vergara and Manolo González
I’ll look into Manolo’s father’s side later.
I forgot to add Muisca as part of her indigenous Colombian ancestry; Valencian as part of her Spanish ancestry; and Indigenous Peruvian (also Quechua).
