The best historian of Tepa is still alive. His name is Paco Gallegos. He is still the director of the museum in Tepa.
 
He has written extensibly on the subject.
 
You can reach him at the museum at (378) 781-4277.
 
Sincerely
 
Juan Ramon Alvarez

I've be following the thread in regards to the books dealing Nuevo Galicia
with interest. I was wondering if anyone knows of any books dealing specifically
with the history of Tepatitlan \ Los Altos or San Jose de Bazarte. If not,
does anyone have any suggestions on how I can find out more on the historical
background of these places ? especially "La Villa"....Thanks in
advance , Robert Gonzalez ~
