I ran across this article on how some person name Joel Poinsett, French or English trying to push out Spanish from Mexico for access to the mines.
http://mexfiles.net/2007/03/29/buried-treasure/
My ancestors were the Spanish from the colonial days, we own large acres of property and one of my relatives has a property with a hand dug mine on it.
Dear Group,
Since there appears to be members with the surname of de Alba, I thought I'd pose the question again.
Has anyone seen these surnames used interchangably in their research? Or are they distinctly different?
Any help or opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Alice

Does anyone know if the surname de Ysalba or de Esalba is a variation of de Alba?
I've got marriage entries for Maria de Ysalba with Joseph Feliz de Arrambide 02/20/1724 and 03/19/1720 in Mexico, DF. Yet I can't find any de Ysalba's anywhere. Both entries from two different churches in DF couldn't be wrong? Your help would be greatly appreciated. Alice Blake
Thank you all who contributed information on these families. I seem to have the good luck to also be working on these lines, including also Amaya and Rosales, clustered in the area of Tecolotlan, Autlan, and Ejutla in Jalisco. My question is for Marta Haros and the post dated 1/8/2012, in which you listed the son of Antonio Santa Ana and Feliciana Gomez Garcia-Contreras as Antonio: Baptized 24 May, 1723.
Was that in Tecolotlan? I actually have 9 other children for this couple--but can't locate that particular record. The other children I have are: Thomas: 27 March, 1731; Maria Theresa Januaria: 11 Oct, 1728; Francisca Ylaria 9 Feb, 1726; Joseph Maria: 14 Oct, 1718; Augustina 18 Sep 1715; Catarina 13 Dec, 1711; Pedro 12 July, 1713; Maria 15 Jan, 1721, and Cayetano: 21 Sept. 1723
Thank you for your help.

Hi,
Today I decided to reseach the paternal line of a distant cousin and thanks to Familysearch I was able to find records on 11 couples going back up to 5 generations. They all are from the La Laguna region (Coahuila-Durango, just North of Zacatecas). One of the couples is the one of Jose Maria Gonzalez de Hermosillo & Trinidad Montes de Oca, who had several children in Viesca, Coahuila around the 1840's.
According to the book -La hacienda de "La Concha": Una empresa algodonera de La Laguna, 1883-1917- this González de Hermosillo family was from Jalisco and they would carry merchandise from Guadalajara to San Antonio, TX in the early 1800's.
If anybody has any information on the Jalisco branch of this family please let me know. It is the direct paternal line of my cousin.
Best regards,
Victoriano Navarro, Torreón, Coah.
Amigos del foro, se que muchos de ustedes basan sus investigaciones en el área de Aguascalientes por lo que creí conveniente dar a conocer el siguiente registro que encontré hoy. Buscando el matrimonio de Desiderio Martín Gallardo y Jerónima de la Torre me encontré con el matrimonio de Juan Carrión y María López de Oropeza, y creo será de interés para mucho si es que aún no tienen el dato. Yo no desciendo de la pareja mencionada pero tiene mucha relación con los Muñoz de Hermosillo y González de Hermosillo.

Melchor Reynoso is probably in the old microfisches of the LDS church, if you can find a Family History Center which still has them. They are the Catholic parish records, filmed and extracted in the 1950's. Some of the original parish records are now filmed and online at Wikki. I'm not sure of the link....

Based on the information Esther provided I figured she got that from the
old familysearch site which still has data submitted by the researcher
Jaime Holcombe Isunza. I searched it and found two records
http://www.familysearch.org/eng/search/IGI/individual_record.asp?recid=…®ion=10®ionfriendly=Mexico&frompage=99and
http://www.familysearch.org/eng/search/IGI/individual_record.asp?recid=…®ion=10®ionfriendly=Mexico&frompage=99
Those records were likely submitted by Jaime Holcombe. If you order copies
of the sheets submitted you should see annotations of the source of
information that will include the name of the records such as Bautismo,
Matrimonio, Informaci?n Matrimonial, or Dispensa, the record numbers which
I still haven't figured out, and the year of the record. That way you can
try and hunt down everything Jaime Holcombe had when he submitted the
sheets. You can order copies of the records through mail or go online to
have the microfilm sent to your local family history center.
If anyone can tell me what those numbers in parentheses mean I would
appreciate it. Here is an example for a sheet Jaime submitted for the
family of Tomas Villalobos and Catarina Macias Valadez -
Sagrada Mitra de Guadalajara, Jalisco: Dispensas Matrimoniales (6118) 1749;
(6123) 1734; (6135) 1756; (6155) 1693; (6485) 1709; ........
Aguascalientes, Aguascalientes: Bautismos (17,062) 1635; 1637; 1641;
1643......Informacion Matrimonial (17,172) 1702..
Lagos de Moreno, Jalisco: Matrimonios (3670) 1656...........

Melchor Reynoso (b. ca. 1695) is the earliest documented Reynoso in the line I am researching in Jalostotitlán. I know it is widely assumed that he is the son of Sebastián Reynoso y Renteria and María Francisca Ramires de Hermosillo, who are documented many times over through the baptisms ((Mariana, Manuel, Francisco, and Juan Toribio) and marriages (Mariana, Miguel Geronimo, and Juan Toribio) of several of their children.
Melchor Reynoso married María de San Juan Gonsales Rubio ca. 1724. I have searched, frame-by-frame, the marriages from Jalostotitlán (FHL Film 279295) between 1720 and 1725, but have been unable to locate the marriage. The marriage is proved by statements in the subsequent marriage records of several of their children (Vicente Ceferino, Joseph Antonio, María Manuela, and Anna Francisca), but I have been unable to locate the 1724 marriage of Melchor.
If anyone has proof of either the marriage of Melchor Reynoso and María de San Juan Gonsales Rubio or the birth of Melchor (which should provide the names of his parents), I should be most grateful.
I have been deeply involved in the online Jalisco records at FamilySearch.org for about seven months and have made spectacular progress on many lines. I hope eventually to be able to provide assistance to others whose lines may cross the ones I am researching; but, in the meantime, I am deeply impressed by the level of research and documentation that is being done by members of this forum (to which, I am new).
Thank you, and good hunting,

Hace días leí en un mensaje del señor Guillermo Tovar de Teresa que se detenía en publicar algunos datos genealógicos en nuestro foro porque existen varias personas que se "piratean" los datos obtenidos por los demás con mucho trabajo y esfuerzo. Estoy totalmente de acuerdo con el señor Tovar porque a mi me pasó en una ocasión, la verdad es que yo no tengo mucho tiempo para dedicar a mi hobbie que es la genealogía y por tanto a lo mejor no aporto muchos datos de interés para el grupo, pero recuerdo una ocasión haber dado a conocer los datos de que el genearca de los Vázquez de Lara y Vázquez Zermeño de los Altos de Jalisco se hacía llamar Juan Vázquez de Perea y hasta les di la fuente de mi hallazgo y me ha tocado ver en algunas páginas y genealogías de algunos que ya tienen ese dato que yo di y además tienen hasta mi genealogía en sus páginas y no me dan el reconocimiento debido ni a mi, ni mucho menos citan la fuente de donde se tomó el dato. Creo que si es un poco desanimador el ver estos casos para poder ayudarnos unos a otros. Debemos dar el mérito a quien se merece darle el reconocimiento.
Debemos "educarnos" para así poder aportar los datos que creemos puedan servir a los demás, pero eso si, recibiendo el mérito debido. Espero no caer mal con este mensaje, pero estoy en total acuerdo con el señor Tovar. Apoyémonos unos a otros, dando a cada quien lo que se merece.

Dear Group,
I'd like to ask your experienced guidance in the research of my Arrambide branch that has apparently hit a brick wall.
Martin Arrambide died 11/16/1762 in Salinas Victoria, NL and his burial entry states he was Europeo. In my experience with family members that were born in Spain, the entries state he was from los Reinos de Espana/Castilla, or something to that effect. This led me to research the surname Arrambide a bit. It's probably Basque and possibly from France.
In Israel Cavazos Garza's, Breve historia de Nuevo Leon, he is briefly mentioned as such: Ya en 1741, el obispo de Guadalajara, don Juan Gomez de Parada, establecio una escuela formal y nombro como maestro a Martin de Arrambide, encargandole mucho la buena educacion de los ninos.
Does anyone know where to research this type of order or mandate made by the bishop of Guadalajara of that time? Would this be found in some place other than Diocesis de Guadalajara? Discovering this would probably yield more information on Martin's origins and possibly his age, either of which would be a great place from which to continue.
Thank you so much for all your help. Alice Blake

Happy New Year to all Nuestros Ranchos Researchers.
I am excited that I will be traveling to Mexico in March
and was hoping to do some research on the family of
Dr. Jesus Sanchez Guerrero, born in Guadalajara in 1874 and his son,
Dr. Francisco Sanchez Flores, who was born in Tlajomulco in 1910.
Unfortunately, my traveling companion now thinks it would
be too dangerous for two women to go to Tlajomulco alone, so I hope
NR members can let me know if this would be unsafe for us to do. Here
in the US we hear much about the drug cartel violence but I haven't
heard of problems in this particular area. If we stay in Guadalajara,
can anyone suggest which resources would be best to seek out in my
limited time of 5 days in Guadalajara. Also, Can you tell me what the
best way would be to travel from Guadalajara and how long it would take
to get to Tlajomulco?
I would appreciate any advice and/or guidance you can give me.
When things get hectic, I tend to let several days worth of postings go unread until I make the time to go back and read them. Consequently, I always seem to find many entries of great interest. I must admit, however, that I often only skim the postings that are in Spanish because of my impatience with my facility in the language.
I have been following some of the comments of new researchers, and I have a question for the new researchers:
Quick - HOW MANY great-great grandparents do you have? No counting on fingers. This is a number you should know in order to see the whole picture of your family. Understanding this number helps you plan how to proceed in your research.
I have yet to find all the great grand-parents of my father, Jose de Jesus Garcia/Castro (Garcia was surname at Baptism; Castro was surname at death. Surname changed at time of immigration to U.S.), who by the way, would have celebrated his 100th birthday on Jan 13.
Back to my stall in research - sometimes life gets in the way.
I am grateful for all the stalwart researchers who continue the hunt; your postings are inspiring, and I hope to be able to resume researching sometime this year.
One line I am researching is the DUENAS (tilde over the N) family, who lived in the Valparaiso district of Zacatecas (Hacienda del Astillero [1912], Hcda San Mateo [1887], Hcda San Miguel [1889] ), and also in Sombrete (marriage doc dated 1853).
Research records are in the "Files" section of NR. Does anyone else have a DUENAS connection?
Blessings to all in this new year.

Thank you so much to: Linda, Mickey, Angelina, Alicia, Raquel
& Veronica for your advice and recommendations for hotels
in the Guadalajara area. I am especially grateful to
Veronica who lives near Tlajomulco and volunteered guidance
in my search.
Dr. Francisco Sanchez Flores, born in Tlajomulco in 1910, was
known as "Pancho Panelas" in the mariachi & folkloric dance world.
He was also a noted painter of indigenous art and I believe has artwork
in exhibition in the Regional Museum in Guadalajara. I would love to
visit a cultural center named after him in Tlajomulco, as well as a
school. Maybe Veronica could find their locations for me as it would
be very exciting to see them. As mentioned, just walking the same
streets as did our ancestors is a very spiritual, special feeling, which
I experienced when I went to El Paso in search of my cousin. With the
help of this wonderful group, my trip should be very productive.
Thanks to you all - Nancy
Estimado Guillermo y Enrique
Hace días encontré que Diego de Acevedo Carvajal y Ulloa marido de Micaela de Cobián fue bautizado 1 de febrero de 1667 en Agnamacutiro de la Unión, Michoacán. Luego casó el 28 de mayo de 1711 con Micaela de Cobián y Villaseñor (Rincón). Su hermano, Joseph Miguel de Acevedo Carvajal y Ulloa casó Rosa de Villaseñor y Cervantes el 11 de septiembre de 1707 en Tamazula. Era hija de Juan Urbano de Villaseñor y Cervantes y Josefa Candelas y Cervantes. Esta Josefa fue bautizada en Agnamacutiro de la Unión el 6 de mayo de 1663 hija de Juan Candelas y Tomasina de Cervantes.
No tendrán idea el origen de los Acevedo Carvajal? El Diego quien casó a Francisca de Villaseñor era de la ciudad de México hijo de Diego de Acevedo Carvajal y María de Tovar y Ulloa. Estos bautizaron a otro hijo en Asunción, Ciudad de México, Luis de Acevedo Carvajal y Ulloa el 20 de septiembre de 1630. Este último Diego debería nacer ca. 1600 y tuvo un hermano llamado Luis de Acevedo Carvajal quien casó a María de Ledesma. Diego y Luis son nombre repetidos en las dos generaciones. No tengo la menor idea quien son sus padres, probable un Acevedo y una Carvajal.

Alguien sabe el origen de esta Josefa Ruíz de Esparza quien casó a Domingo Ruíz de la Fuente? Ella falleció el 22 de junio de 1668 en Aguascalientes. Calculé más o menos y sería una nieta de Lope Ruíz de Esparza o hija que no hemos comprobado?

Aver si alguien que ha investigado por ahí me puede ayudar en esta búsqueda. Hace días entronqué con estos López de Castro. Tienen ramas en Aguascalientes, Ciénega de Mata, Teocaltiche y Guadalajara. Busco datos adicionales sobre unas de mis líneas en Guadalajara. Resulta que mis noveno bisabuelos, Bartolomé López de Castro y Luisa Jácome de Tovar casaron el 23 de agosto de 1703 en Guadalajara. Este era hijo de Bartolomé López de Castro y Francisca Maldonado de Saavedra. Luisa era hija de Pedro Jácome de Tovar y Regina Ladrón de Guevara y López Portillo. La única pista de suerte es que el párroco menciona los apellidos maternos en la partida matrimonial.

Hola a todos:
Les quisiera pedir ayuda acerca de uno de mis antepasados de San Luis Potosí, sé que no es el área de estudio de este foro, pero espero alguien pueda de casualidad tener un dato o idea por ahí.
Hace días descubrí que uno de mis antepasados se llamaba Francisco de la Torre y Castilla, estaba casado con María de Castro, ellos tuvieron dos o hijos más de los cuales, Luis de la Torre y Castilla estuvo casado con María de San Juan de Rocha y otro Ignacio de la Torre y Castilla casado con Antonia Del Castillo y Quesada, el 15 de Febrero de 1706 en Armadillo de los Infante, SLP. en esta acta dice que su madre María de Castro reside en la Ciudad de San Luis Potosí y su padre ya estaba difunto.
¿Alguno de ustedes sabe de donde podría venir el apellido Castilla? Era un apellido de mucha importancia en aquellos tiempos, espero alguno pueda resolverme la duda.
Gracias de antemano,
Enrique Agraz
It sounds like he was the one who registered her as his daughter and gave him her last name. This often ocurrs when two people live together, though not marry still recognizes his natural child. Most times when this would not occur, it would list the mother and padre desconocido. I recently learned that another reason for marriages when mentioned was "de padres no conocidos" was because the person refused to identify their parents so they would not have to go through the dispensastion process, etc especially when consanguinity was obvious.
