Hi,
I need to download a Chromosome Browser file from www.dnagedcom.com through the Family Tree DNA link, for the Nueva Galicia DNA project, which I did.
However, when I open it, there's nothing there except some headers. I thought there would be other info.
What should I be seeing, and what am I doing wrong? FYI, I use Firefox on a MacBook Pro.
Thanks,
Laura Gonzalez
I by accident ran across pictures of the dwellings of "Great Zimbabwe" of Africa and was startled.
The architecture of using stone, towers and even dwellings is almost exactly similar to te "La Quemada" of Zacatecas and the house dwellings of walls made of slabs of stone stacked on top of each other and grass for roof. That is also similar to the Ancients Celts of Galician, Spain.
Could there be a three way conection? Great Zimbabwe of Africa, Ancient Celts of Galicia, Spain and Huichols of La Quemada of Zacatecas?

Hello All - my name is Mia Montemayor and I've only been doing research for a few weeks now. Using family search, I was able to locate several records of my ancestors, including my great great grandparents Jose Aurelio Ponce born in Aguascalientes on March 26th 1886 and Valentina Ramirez born May 21st 1880. Jose Aurelio Ponce's parents were Francisco Ponce and Maria del Refugio Lopez from Aguascalientes. And, Francisco's parents were Nazario Ponce and Paula Castañeda. I recently located the birth of Nazario Ponce, so, I know his paternal grandparents are Gregorio Ponce and Gertrude Rangel and his maternal grandparents are Nepoceno Munoz and Guadalupe Diaz and I was hoping to find out as much as I can about those two couples. Thank you for allowing me to be part of the group.

Hola Armando y NuestrosRancheros,
I just got some FamilyFinder results and analyzed them using DIY Dodecad Wrapper / Globe13 as you suggested. Then I figured out the ethnic percentiles assuming Mexican and Spanish ancestry, but I wonder if the numbers I got would match your calculations. Could you please give me an ethnic percentile estimate based on the information below?
I have not traced back this line yet to the NR area, but other lines from my family tree do go back to Zacatecas (Mazapil and Gruñidora).
Thanks in advance.

Hola miembros de "Nuestros Ranchos"
He estado estudiando la familia Machain de Santa Maria de los Lagos y no

alrededor de 1745. Sospecho
que este Nicolas Machain era nieto del primer Ignacio Machain que vino
de España en 1688 acompañando a Felipe de Otaduy; este Felipe fue Alcalde de

Gracias por la orientacion que me puedan dar.

Dear Primos and friends:
If you missed the first four hours of Latino Americanos, please don't
miss the last two hours of the 6-hour documentary. It will air Tuesday,
October 1st. It is excellent.
Latino Americanos successfully gives a broad overview of our very
diverse population, sharing the emotional consequences experienced by
Latinos from different parts of the US. Important historic points were
made by the facts, which should help all Latinos/Hispanics to understand
one another better. To most non-Hispanics it will surely be an
eye-opener. A CD of Latino Americanos will be available, and materials
for the classroom have been developed.
Congratulations to John Valadez and the other documentarians. They
certainly did their homework!! They shared with us a more honest view of
the Latinos experience in the United States, showing us to be a part of
American history.
As more and more organizations, government and public agencies,
universities, libraries, museums, cultural groups, non-profits,
individuals, etc. etc. are informing the public of their activity and
services to the Latino community, I am feeling less and less the need to
include in Somos Primos some of the topics and areas which I have been
attempting to cover since January 2000. Thankfully, we now have an
abundance of outstanding informative websites, particularly on issues of
current events, and, even better, they are set up to get the information
out quickly, plus all the social networking is promoting wonderful
genealogical connections.
Consequently, Somos Primos will be concentrating:
(1) more and more on sharing your personal stories and little known
history.
(2) on including information about an event after it takes place, with
photos and comments. Your personal stories and special events, whether a
festival, an honoring event, or a family reunion, then become >
digitized archived history.
You have life incidences that shaped you, amused you, taught you.
Please write them down and share them. What you valued in your life is
valuable. Your life mattered, share it for the benefit of all of us.
Sincerely, Mimi

Does anyone know what books cover the colonial history of the municipalities of Jalisco that are near the southeast shoreline of Laguna Chapala? The municipalities that are of greatest interest to me are Mazamitla, Quitupan, and Valle de Juarez, Jalisco. Those municipalities are close to Sahuayo, and Cotija, Michoacan. My historical research of the area has come up dry. Not much more could be said for my genealogical research of the area, either. I also want to know what clans settled in those three Jalisco municipalities and how Valle de Juarez came to be. I have already read the Wikipedia article, but the level of detail was cursory at best. The links on the article were outdated.
If anyone knows of any resource that describes this area in detail, I would much appreciate it. Thanks!
Alguien tiene ancestros en es area de Jamay Jalisco y/o Ocotlan Jalisco??? con los apellidos de Jimenez, de la Rosa, Munguia, Estrada, Velasco???
I am interested in finding more information on the word "Vale" and its origin. I can remember hearing the word "vale" around the house. The word "vale" is used when referring to someone.
I do not want to confuse anyone with the way that the spanish use the word vale. Correct me if I'm wrong, for the spanish, it means something like "OK" or "de acuerdo". An example of its use in Jalisco would be: Qvo le Vale, Andale Vale, Mira Vale, Ese Vale. Some people use it more than others but I have noticed that people from Jalisco, Nayarit, Sinaloa seem to use it the most.
I also remember hearing the word used like the way we use it in Venezuelan Novelas. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070627102059AAseGtR
I can't imagine the word being a slang word. Your input greatly appreciated.
David here. I have a question about The LDS Family Tree online. Has anyone used this. Please post your experience with it please post your opinion. Does this have any thing to do with Family Tree Maker software.
In the 1500/1600/1700s in Zacatecas was ''the mines of Somberette''

Jackson
Message-ID:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed
Hello Everyone ~?~ Let me first introduce myself. My name is Gloria (Tello) Jackson and I am brand new at this, having never been on Nuestros Ranchos before. However, as soon as I came across the Nuestros Ranchos Genealogy Group Website I saw that the research centered on Jalisco, Zacatecas and Aguascalientes. Oh my! I was instantly interested and filled with hope. What has been nagging me for about 30 years now is the fact I have wanted to know more about my grandfather?s lineage but didn?t know how to achieve the results I needed. My grandfather?s name was Luis Tello Martinez and he was born in San Pedro Ocampo in Zacatecas in 1883. Everything that lies beyond him is a total, complete mystery to us, his grandchildren, except knowing that his father?s name was Daniel Tello. That is as far as it goes because I still do not know when he was born nor do I know what his birthplace was. But I do know that he was a silver ore miner who
died of pneumonia
at Concepci?n del Oro, Zacatecas sometime before 1922. As a teenager young Luis Tello had worked in the mines with his father Daniel, but he found out that a miner?s work was not to his liking. Luis chose to finish school instead and did not become a miner like his father.
Now, I have observed that some families of Mexican descent openly share their roots, but ours simply did not. This is why it was necessary for me to join a group like this of like-minded people who are intent and serious about researching their roots in Mexico. And that?s where the hope comes in. I say that because there?s now a big chance for our family to know what?s back there past our paternal great-grandfather Daniel Tello. I might possibly even find the one Tello ancestor who was a pasajero (passenger) on one of Queen Isabella?s ships. Anything beyond that, of course, would be icing on the cake!
So, after receiving the Nuestros Ranchos Emails for some months now, I rest assured that you are a great group of people ?en busca de sus antepasados? (in search of your ancestors) as well. I believe you will be able to assist me in my own family research for our Tello Great-Grandfathers. I strongly suspect that our complete Tello line in New Spain were all involved in mining silver, gold, and mineral ores. They do appear to have kept themselves working in the highlands and mountainous mining areas of central Mexico. At least that?s what I?ve noticed from all that I am finding from FamilySearch.org (the LDS) and also from what was told to me by my Father and by my Paternal Grandmother.
My question to you will greatly help me in my research. Can anyone tell me please what the oldest most ancient mines in and around the state of Zacatecas are and what their names are? My grandmother mentioned Mazap?l, Zacatecas, Mezquital del Oro, San Luis Potos?, Parral, Matehuala, San Pedro de Ocampo, Melchor Ocampo and Concepci?n del Oro. These are second-nature to me now because I heard both my grandmother and my father mention them as to but a few places in central Mexico where our great-grandfather spent his time working. But perhaps there are others that I can quickly recall if I once again hear their names.
I thank you all for taking the time to read my very first Posting on Nuestros Ranchos and I look forward with anticipation to reading your responses. ~?~

Anybody know where I can find information about Juchipila, Zacatecas, in the late 1700s and early 1800s?

Hello,
my name is Roberto Rosales Villalpando, and I recently started doing genealogy
research. Growing up I was always curious about my family history. Sadly, I
wandered around with many questions, but no answers. Now, that I am going for a
biology major I have found a passion in genealogy, I do not know why, but
knowing who my ancestors were gives me a sense of belonging. Now I know more
about my family than my only great-grandmother still living.
My recent family ancestry was from the Huanusco,Zacatecas-Calvillo,Aguascalientes
region, and from Tlachichila,Nochistlan, Zacatecas. To be more exact my father’s family is from
La Palma, Huanusco, Zacatecas and my mother is from a single family ranch on
the division of Zacatecas and Aguascalientes called La Calera (near Arroyo
Soto). I can trace my paternal grandparents and maternal grandfather's lineage
to el Arroyo de Soto, Calvillo, Aguascalientes multiple times on my family tree,
since I have the Serna surname all over my family tree. My parents are even
third cousins through the Serna's. Thanks to my maternal grandmother who came
from Tlachichila, Zacatecas I have different surnames I can add to my family
tree.
I also recently had my DNA tested through 23andme.
I have an extensive family tree, with a few brick walls along
the way, which I hope to overcome with the help of Nuestros Ranchos, and I look
forward on working with all of you.
Thank You
