ABOUT ME
I am RAY DUQUE III. I was born on October 16 in the Philippines in the province of Pangasinan, the hometown of my father and the largest DUQUE FAMILY CLAN. I'm now 75 plus years young. We migrated at Sampaloc, Manila when I was about two years old. We used to lived in Manila for about a little more than ten years and moved to Quezon City. This is a part of Metro Manila. We used to live in Quezon City until I migrated to the USA in July 1970.
While I was in Manila and Quezon City growing up in the elementary, I went to a public school and at San Beda College (now San Beda University) in Mendiola, Manila. When I was in high school, I went to University of Santo Tomas, National University and Arellano University all in Manila. In my college days, I went to University of the East in Recto Avenue, Manila. I took up Business Administration in Accounting. When I graduated from college, I migrated to the USA to work and live there until my retirement.
When I was in school in Manila, I used to appear in the Philippine Movies as Character Actor in the 1960s. I used to appear in many movies as a character actor. At the same time those years I was Dancing the Ballroom/Latin Dance. I also played Basketball in School Intramurals and tried out for the basketball varsity team but I was not able to play in the varsity.
When I migrated in the USA in 1970, I worked as a bookkeeper and accountant in a large and medium companies. I got married in March 1974 in the USA. We have two grown up children. They are both working. I have also grand children.
I'm now a retired Filipino-American living in the USA and enjoying my retirement. I want to be known. I want to go back to the Philippine movies if I have the opportunity to go back in the movies. I go to the Philippines almost every year for vacation and to visit.
Thank you all,
Ray Duque III (GMBD), USA

I am a duque. My uncles and dad are all duques sons of Mariano duque. Im not sure if we are of the same duques because we were brought up here in hawaii.. My grandpa came to hawaii to work in the cane fields and met my grandmother a hawaiian woman who then lived and raised their children here. My uncles do know the names of my dads brothers but i don't.
