Try the various genealogy websites:
You should start by asking all your living relatives about family history!. Then, armed with that information, you can go to your public library and check to see if it has a genealogy department!. Most do nowadays; also, don't forget to check at community colleges, universities, etc!. Our public library has both www!.ancestry!.com and www!.heritagequest!.com free for anyone to use (no library card required)!.
Another place to check out is any of the Mormon's Family History Centers!. They allow people to search for their family history (and, NO, they don't try to convert you)!.
A third option is one of the following websites:

Cyndi's has the most links to genealogy websites, whether ship's passenger lists, ancestors from Africa, ancestors from the Philippines, where ever and whatever!.

Of course, you may be successful by googling: "john doe, born 1620, plimouth, massachusetts" as an example!.

Good luck and have fun!

Then there is the DNA test; if you decide you want to REALLY know where your ancestors came from opt for the DNA test!. Besides all the mistakes that officials commonly make, from 10% to 20% of birth certificates list the father wrong; that is, mama was doing the hanky-panky and someone else was the REAL father!. That won't show up on the internet or in books; it WILL show up in DNA!.
I used www!.familytreedna!.com which works with the National Geographics Genotype Program!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Go to www!.ancestry!.com it is free to register and they have a lot of records!. Which are also free!. I recently looked up my husbands name on that site (he's mexican) and had no problem finding his ancestors!. also a few of his aunt's and uncles had also registered on the sight so I was able to look at their family trees and also send them e mail's with any questions I had!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You're lucky!. I might be the right person you're looking for!. Try the links below:

www!.familysearch!.org has this listing from Spain--
Juan Rebeles - Gender: Male Marriage: 04 FEB 1640 Diocesis De Granada, Granada, Spain

Putting your name's spelling in the Search, it also came up with these spellings: RAIBLE ; REBEL ; RABEL ; RIBEL;
RIEBEL; RIBELL ; RABLE ; REVELES ; REEBEL; REBLE;&
WRABEL !.
Though it is found in hispanic countries, it is also found in Germany, Portugal, Canada, and the US!.

www!.ancestry!.com
Rebel--1!. German: from a Germanic personal name formed with (h)rab- ‘raven’!.
2!. French: from a variant of Old French rebelle ‘rebel’, hence a nickname for someone with little respect for authority or someone who had taken part in a rebellion!.

http://www!.wordreference!.com/es/en/trans!.!.!.
From a Spanish-English dictionary: it says "Del verbo rebelarse: (conjugar)
te rebeles es la:
2a persona singular (tú) presente subjuntivo
rebelarse verbo reflexivo to rebel, revolt [contra, against]"

(which if I can remember my Spanish classes from the Dark Ages of the 1970's says something to the effect of "the verb REBELARSE--to conjugate; the rebels = "2 singular persons, present subjunctive case"; reflexive verb "rebelarse" means "to rebel, revolt [against]"

So, the ancestry!.com entry pretty much hit the nail on the head!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
