Hello!
I am interested in the haciendas in Zacatecas, Particularly in hacienda del
Mezquite,(Fresnillo) and Hacienda de San Juan de Ahorcados, jurisdiccion de
Mazapil. I would appreciate any historical information such as living
conditions, life in general, social divisions, etc. you could share.
I want find out why my ancestors decided to bring colonos to Coahuila and
Durango from that area back in the heyday of both haciendas. Also anything
on Ssanta Maria de las Nieves and la Gruñidora (also in Nieves).

Hello Elvira:
Regarding your desire to learn about haciendas in Colonial Mexico. I don't
know if there is information specific to the haciendas you listed, but there
is an excellent book that gives an in-depth description of hacienda
organization and daily life. I believe that what is described was typical
for all haciendas during the Spanish Colonial period in Mexico. A Jesuit
Hacienda in Colonial Mexico by Herman W. Conrad is available from
Borderlands Bookstore in San Antonio, Texas. Their website is
www.borderlandsbooks.com. If you did not know about this bookstore, let me
tell you that it is an excellent source for hard-to-find resource materials
for historians and genealogists.

It's Konrad, with a K. Spell it that way or else you won't get a hit
on WorldCat if you want to borrow it via Interlibrary Loan (ILL). But
I agree about Borderlands Bookstore being an excellent source. George
Farias is a great person to deal with regarding acquistion of
materials, etc. I heartily endorse this resource. Marge:)
