Forlongs in Argentina

Some Forlongs in Latin America have befriended New Zealand Forlongs on Facebook.

One in Argentina is Facundo Forlong. He was asked if he could clarify the relationship by giving the names of his father and father's father and so on. His first response included this:

Tengo 30 años y la abuela de mi papá vino de islanda
Crío solo sus hijos
Eso se del apellido
Que tengo

Web translation was:

I'm 30 years old and my dad's grandmother came from Iceland
I raise only your children
I know the last name
That I have
