Toward the year 1,080, times of the Cid Campeador, two brothers were found here and a sister. They went for the edict of Mrs Magpie of Castile that was in war with the king of Aragon.
María Perez, like the sister was called, he was impelled in continuing his brothers to the fight, so he dressed the armor and he responded next to them to defend his banner.

After the fight certain dispersion between the troops was produced and María, sóla, in the half-light in the afternoon, came upon another confused: Alfonso the Fighter.
 

María carried the covered face with the ambush, as the heraldic statue shows him then that still can be observed in his possession of Villanañe, and thus fought against the aragonese one, leaving the sword, despite which, was so large its value, that conquered its opponent and did prisoner.

 

It admired, the king, he told him: "You have done, not as weak woman, but like hardly male and should call you Varona, vos and yours descending and in memory of this feat will use the weapons of Aragon".

It is discussed if the origin of the bars that appear in the shield of the Varonas is this or more well these bars would appear by to have been subsequently María Perez, woman of Gift Watches. The bars appear in diagonal, which he implies that have been cattle like trophy, this reinforces the first theory.

The name of Ruy remained in Rodrigo, and thus the first-born one of the family along generations has called itself.

The Perez was lost and step to be Varona, that has been maintained along the centuries.
 

María Pérez, of Villanañe, was a widow of the infant gift Watches (brother of three kings of Aragon: Pedro I, Alfonso I and Ramiro The Monk), being her third woman, and was sister of Alvar Pérez and Gómez Pérez. Of his wedding with Candle he was born Rodrigo Varona, the first one of the lineage.

 

The Cuban branch of the family is especially extensive, excelling the polygraph Enrique José of Varona and Pérez, born in Port Prince in 1849 and that touched a variety of overwhelming themes along its life, including philosophy, psychology, etc. Also participated in politics.
