Author Topic:   Help--Hoocoma in Spain BoDogWorld Member posted 06-10-2001 10:06 AM             Help please. I am trying to find information about a castle in Spain. The only info that I currently have is that it is called Hoocoma and is located in the Catalogna region near Bacelona perhaps. The castle might have been associated with the family name of Russo. I am sure this is not a major site which is why I have found nothing about it on the web. Does anyone know about this place or could tell me where I could search for information about it...exact location, history, and picture? Thanks...I will be greatful indeed.

It doesn't look very spanish to me, I don't recall them using "oo" at all. Erik BoDogWorld Member posted 06-11-2001 03:12 AM             I will check into the spelling. I thought the spelling was a little strange for Spainish too. I got this information from a friend who says it belonged to his family a long time ago...could it be possible that it is really just a large villa that the family has called castle over the years? Well, it is named none the less so I would think that there would be record of it someplace. I will double check the spelling and get back...Thanks!!

It does have remains of its walls, and is well known for its Pacace\House rather than a castle.
