Moderatorship in the nuestrosranchos.org group can be work and also a
thankless job. The work behind the scenes makes the group function
properly and as the originating moderator of the group I just wanted to
My name is Joseph de Leon. My ancestral roots come from both HUEJUCAR, JALISCO and JEREZ, ZACATECAS. Some of the surnames of my ancestors are: DE LEON, CARLOS, BANUELOS, FLORES, COVARRUBIAS, VILLANEDA, CAMPOS, BORREGO, and many others.
I'm new to this, and I need help connecting my GGG grandfather José de los Santos Romo de Vivar (b.1807) to what seems to be the original location of most of the Romo de Vivar family in the region of Aguascalientes. I have discovered through family records and FamilySearch transcribed christening records a lineage that takes me back to Bernabe ROMO, listed on a baptismal certificate as the father of Gregorio ROMO (b. abt 1780) of Encarnación (de Díaz), Jalisco. But I am having trouble pinning him down. I have found a Bernave ROMO DE VIVAR who married Anna Gertrudis FRANCO in 1761 in Tepatitlán, Jalisco--and those are the names of my ancestor's parents. But the trail goes cold in Tepatitlán, because I can't find out any more about Bernabe (Bernave) ROMO DE VIVAR, even though I am pretty sure that is his correct name.
Can anyone help me with the BANUELOS family tree? I have many Banuelos cousins that share a common GGF from the Huejucar and Zacatecas area. My mother's maternal grandmother was Maria Vicenta Banuelos born Abt. 1840 and reportedly lived to be 100+ years old.
I'm not familiar with the town of Huejucar Jalisco but my Aunt who's family is from there has asked if I could find anything on her families there.
Her parents were Salvador Banuelos and Emma Madrid no dates but approx. 1900 in Huejucar
Frecuentemente se menciona tanto gente de los altos como externa a ellos que los alteños se desciende de sangre sefardita y de igual manera se dice de familias francesas; bueno acudo a este grupo para hacerles a ustedes esta pregunta y saber que piensan ustedes al respecto. Espero sus comentarios, gracias. ATTE.: Gutiérrez de Mendoza y González de Hermosillo
Mary I'm waiting for a marriage film from Zapotiltic Jalisco Mexico (0225928, years 1800-1851) that has your ancestors, Urbano Sanchez and Dolores Ruis marriage record. Do you already have it or would you like me to make a copy of it for you? The history center reopens on Jan 7th. My ancestors are on that film too.
Tepatitlan is not that far from Aguascalientes........people traveled long distances all the time. It might take them days or weeks to get there but travel they did. Keep in mind that they did not go to work every day if they were agrarians, they grew their subsistence crops and in fallow times would travel from town to town to see family. Some were traveling merchants whose living it was to go from town to town selling their wares. In many instances these traveling merchants up and left their home town if they found another town more desirable with better prospects for making a living. Some males had families in more than one town, they might take up with someone in another town.
Well, I understand, but was furious when my husband decided not to teach my
children Spanish....I said he should speak to them in Spanish, and I would in
English...but he refused...and now both children regret not knowing the gift
I was surprised to find out that kidnappings were not that unusual. Our ggrandmother was supposedly "stolen" from her parents by a foreigner who was either an engineer or delivered the payroll to the "Mines"
I do have the marriage of Juana Regina de Mendoza and Domingo Lomelin in my
database and a few entries for their children (Jose and Manuel), but it may
not be as complete as what you have since they are not my direct lines.
Hola Maria Elena,My name is Ronnie Reynoso from Claremont,Calif. My Granndparents are from Los Altos de Jalisco(San Julian ,Jalisco) about 15 minutes from San Miguel el Alto.I checked your file and noticed you have alot of the same family lines> I was checking Prima Irma Gomez Lucero file on MANUEL GOMEZ-my question is is at the bottom letter to Irma . She wrote back recommended I ask you .Irma doesn't recall her source concerning Juana Mendoza 's children 's spouses. I was wondering what is correct.
Thank you so much for the information, my Juan Jose Acevedo was married to Manuela de la Vega; since the only records are their sons marriages, I think they must have married between 1750 and 1773, as their first son was born in 1773. His name was Jose Torribio. I appreciate your information is Tlatenango close to Tepetongo?
I'm not related either -- that I know of. But I'd love to hear how the
story pans out -- and I too live in the Inland Empire of southern California
in the city of Rancho Cucamonga.
Nicolas has just published his latest book "Historia de Teocaltiche Pueblo de La Region Caxcana Nueva Galicia-Zona de Los Altos de Jalisco". This book covers the history of area as well as naming well known families in the Teocaltiche area.
I am also looking for a history of San Martin, Zacatecas. I believe the colonists fought in the Chichimeca War. I am researching my Navarro Rodriguez family.
I am also researching Panuco before 1600. I am researching Sepulvedas and General Zavala family.
Does anyone know if the extracting process happens on a film for the IGI do they extract everything or certain records? or just some? My working on my camino line and it appears they come from Pinos, Zac.
Sounds like a report card, doesn't it.
I can't believe that it is the 2nd of December - already ... where has the time gone??
Well - this is a kind of report card on what I managed to get done in genealogy research. At the beginning of the year I set some goals for my Zacatecas research. I read many films, but the truth is that I didn't find all the information I had set as my goal. Anyway - here is a listing of the films I went through - most did not have indices, which means having to have read them page by page (zzzzz - my eyes got mighty heavy): (NOTE - all are films of Zacatecas)
I hope somebody can answer this for me. I remember that, a long time ago, on the Yahoo Ranchos group, I downloaded a file that had the results of the INEGI Mexican census for the states of Aguascalientes, Jalisco, and Zacatecas. Later on, I think it was on Jonathan Walker's cd, I saw the complete review for all the states. It included the reported population on every single municipio and every single city, town and rancho in the whole country. Does anybody know where can I find this file? It was in Adobe format.
