I would like to know if someone is doing resarch in Panuco, Zacatecas. I would also like a map of Zacatecas, can anyone help me with getting one??
I am doing resarch for my g--grandmother, her name is Manuela Mitre and her father is Maroial Mitre her mother is Juana Sandoval and they are from Panuco, Zacatecas. It seems that her father got married more than once and I am having a hard time to know which is which.
There is to many Manuel's in that area. I found a Manuel Garcia getting married to a Manuela Mitre, but I don't think that is the one. She is 15 years old when she married and if I am not mistaken she got married in 1869. My Manuela Mitre had a child in 1861.
I also ran into a Robert Mite from Colorado.and his g--grandfather's name is Tiburcio Mitre and his wife was Refo Diaz. This was the begning of my confusion. When I did a resarch I found out that both g-g-grandfathers have the same name, but different wifes.
Monday I will be ordering 2 film from the LDS. One for Birth and one for Marriages. Maybe I can solve this problem.

Map of Zacatecas
Mary,
If you want a old map of Zacatecas, I suggest going to www.davidrumsey.com .
They have 2 Maps of Zacatecas , One from 1827 and the other from 1858. Also, I can email you a map of Zacatecas (but it is 5 meg in size).

Map of Zacatecas
Jonathan,
I would like to have a Map of Zacatecas. The old maps don't show Rancho
where my Husbands family came from.
Thank You in advance,
Dorothy
Panuco, Zacatecas

What type of a map, are you looking for?
Jonathan

Mary,
Mary,
Via personal email, you asked me more about Pánuco and I must comment on the Oñate family.
The Oñate family has everything to do with Pánuco, originally a great silver-producing pueblo. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crist%C3%B3bal_de_O%C3%B1ate for a summary of the Oñate family activities in Pánuco. Don Juan de Oñate “discovered” and named El Paso, Texas. More Don Juan, see http://www.tsha.utexas.edu/handbook/online/articles/OO/upo2_print.html.
If you prefer Spanish, see http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juan_de_O%C3%B1ate for Don Juan de Oñate.
As is the case of many great mining cities, once the mines become depleted the inhabitants leave, hence a pueblo fantasma, which fairly much describes Pánuco today given descriptions I have had of the place presently and also conversations with people from Zacatecas.
I was in Zacatecas, Zacatecas two years ago and I unforgivably did not visit the town, or at least what is left of it. It is the part of the El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro, see http://www.americanheritage.com/articles/magazine/ah/2004/2/2004_2_44.s…, which starts off with a discussion of Pánuco. The latter link is a delightful story of a journey on the El Camino Real.
I will also post this on the Ranchos site. For what it is worth, many of the Cerros (or Cerro or de Cerro or de Serro) are originally from Pánuco, or so it is said. There is a part of Páncuo called Casa de Cerro. I have not made any connections with my family and anybody in Pánuco, as of yet.

Mary,
Ed, thanks so much for the article about the Camino Real. My mother was a Native of New Mexico, and I have driven that stretch from Northern New Mexico down to Las Cruces, El Paso and Juarez many times. How I wish I could follow that trail into Mexico, but the American Heritage article you sent made me feel like I had been across the border. My mothers Spanish ancestors, the Marquez, were with Onate in 1598, as were my father's Olague ancestors. The Marquez stayed to settle in NM, but my father's high-tailed it back to Zacatecas as soon as they could get away from Onate. He was a ruthless man, but I guess they had to be.
The link for wikipedia you gave didn't work, but this one does;
