What an excellent article! I read it from beginning to end at one sitting. Thank you so much for posting it, Esther. I particularly liked the fact that it explained the complexities of the relationships in the various families.

Thanks to Rich and Kitty Cortez who copied 8 records for me while they were in Salt Lake I have some major new discoveries. Talk about some eyeopeners !!!

I love this article. It tells about how so much of the cuisine we love today (albondigas, moles, aguas frescas, and so much more) was brought to Mexico by the Spaniards who had learned it from the Muslims, and the Muslims learned it from the ancient Persians.

While in Salt Lake City last weekend, I spent time going through the earliest Zacatecas, Zacatecas film of "Informacion Matrimonial." I have begun extracting all of the marriages from 1604 (beginning of the film) through 1628 (when the film lapses until about 1680).

Hi, Ricardo,

It is a great pleasure that you wrote to me and to know that we share the same interests in genealogy and in our dear Pueblo el Valle de Guadalupe, Jalisco.

I have discovered an easier way to search for things on LDS and would like to share.

go to www.familysearch.org

type in a name for example FName: Calixto LName: Alviso (but you may use any name)

Linda,

I think there are some services where you can copy and paste what you want translated, and they will have a trained translator do an exact translation in good proper English, but you have to wait for them to get back to you. Some of them also want to charge you for the service.

I have tried Babelfish translations and as an example I have come up
with the following translation of the message below. Does anyone
have a better method of translating? This loses me. I'm sure no one

Things continue to be busy. This group is like a democracy. . .of the

As I get busier and busier I see less time for me to function properly
