"Jabaloyas is a small village located in the province of Teruel, Spain. .. The people of Jabaloyas, or Jabaloyanos, have long known that many of their relatives left the homes and moved to America at the beginning of the twentieth century. At least 125 men and women born in this village packed their bags to cross the ocean between 1907 and 1931; a great many of them came to the state of Utah. A few of these people settled down abroad, but most of them returned to Span. They came back not only with money but also with traditions that have kept alive till now. Their decedents, even today, treasure objects brought home as a remembrance of their stay in the United States." [Author]
