I have made numerous attempts to research this. I have not been very successful. What I do know is that my last name has appeared in literature written in Vietnamese as well as Korean. Specifically, my last name turned up as a possible town in Vietname. Thank you.
: Could you please elaborate on what you have found on-line in your research to give us a clue on where to start?
: : I am interested in finding out the origins of my last name. Both my parent's are Puerto Rican, however, my last name does not sound latin whatsoever. It is Tantao. I have researced on-line and have found it written in Chinese websites. Does it orginate from China?
