So, I think this occurred on Mar. 28, 1906 in Totolan, Dauis, Bohol. I know his parents are Pio Hontanosas & Inocenta Lopena Yap. I think I can see other names: Mariano & Eusebia Sumodabila but I don't know their relation since I cannot speak Spanish. Any help is much needed. Thank you very much.

You're link to the photo is attached to a profile without  "green" or "white" privacy, so only a thumbnail can be seen, but the link to family search works, but I can't help with the language.
