del Junco is a Spanish surname meaning “from the reeds”. The most notable family with this name is the Rodrigo del Junco family which originally came from Oviedo, Asturias, Spain. In the second half of the 16th century, the family settled in St. Augustine, Florida before establishing in Matanzas, Cuba during the 17th century. The family’s residence in Matanzas was widely known as the Palacio Del Junco (the Del Junco Palace). The house is no longer used as a private residence but it hosts a state-owned Museum. In Matanzas, the family also owned the Palmar del Junco stadium. There, in 1874, the first game of baseball was played in Cuba. The Matanzas’ Del Junco family still owns one of the largest crypt in the Necropolis de San Carlos Borromeo Most members of the family emigrated to Florida, Asturias, Panama, and Mexico following the establishment of a communist system in Cuba.
