| I am BOB M YU ASENSI, Webmaster of this site. The surname YU ASENSI has its beginning in Hinunangan Southern Leyte, Philippines with MARIANO YU, a Chinese from Amoy, Fukien China. He was baptized as MARIANO ASENSI by an Italian Priest named ASENSI; Mariano accepted the name but retained the YU, thus YU ASENSI. He married ESCOLASTICA LIGUID and had 13 children. To date, only 10 are confirmed: Eusebia, Paula, Esteban, Narcisa, Prospero, Pedro, Buenaventurada, Deming, Ponciano and Lucio. Through the years the family name "evolved" into several variations, such as Yu-Asensi, YuAsensi, Yuasensi, or simply Asensi; some female descendants dropped ASENSI and use just YU as their maiden name. If you think MARIANO YU ASENSI is your ancestor and not an heir of any of the 10 brothers and sisters listed above, or if you have any comments about this site, please click here to contact me.
