A NEW GENERATION IN MY FAMILY TREE

Hello everybody. It's been a long time since I posted a message on the group. It's been extremely busy. Anyways, I'm just writing to announce (y presumir) that I just added a new generation to my family tree. My daughter Natalie Itzel Apodaca was born on October 11, 2007 in Winston-Salem, NC. She weighed 7 lbs and 1.6 ounces, and measured 20 inches. My wife and I are so happy! Well, I just thought about writing it in this forum, even though there are lots of new members since the last time I posted a message and most haven't read me before.

Hello, I am Hope Gonzalez Martin. I am first generation Mexican American, my parents were both born on the Rancho Buena Vista, Jalisco, as were many of my grandparents and relatives. I am concentrating on my Father's family. I have been able to trace my grandparents back to my gggg grandfather Jose Gertrudis Gonzales. I have used the local library of the LDS to obtain copies of birth,christening and marriage recordings. I think my gggg grandfather Jose Gertrudis was from Spain, the earliest recording I have of him is that he was a witness at my ggggg grandparent marriage in 1802 in the town of Tacotlan, Jal.

Informacion Matrimonial records

Regarding the use of informacion matrimonial records: I feel obligated to point out to new researchers that occasionally these may contain questionable or inaccurate information. In other words, don’t believe everything you read. Ages are not always accurate, people are not necessarily born in the place stated, and a “parent” may actually be a stepparent, or the groom (or bride) is someone’s hijo/a natural, raised in ignorance of this fact.

Any technologically saavy volunteers out there?

I know I have gone out there with this question before but our membership has grown quite a bit over the last year and so I will ask once again to see if I get any takers...

Are there any members out there who have programming experience, particularly PHP/MySQL that would like to participate in the technical maintenance of the site?
