San Gabriel Valley Families of Nueva Galicia

Hello everyone,

I just wanted to let you know I have finally published my genealogical work on my father's family from Nueva Galicia.

The Gonzales, Calvillo, Ramos, Alva, Macias and Flores families immigrated to Azusa in the San Gabriel Valley of Los Angeles, California in the early 1900’s. These families and their descendants came from various towns in Nueva Galicia which covers the span of nearly 600 years.

The towns involved include Aguascalientes, Asientos, Calvillo, and Rincon de Romos in Aguascalientes; Teocaltiche, Santa Maria de los Lagos (Lagos de Moreno), San Juan de los Lagos, Ojuelos, and Jalostotitlan in Jalisco; Nochistlan, Sierra de Pinos and Villa del Refugio (Tabasco) in Zacatecas.

There are 246 surnames and these families are listed alphabetically. Common surnames include Alva, Calvillo, Carrillo, Chavez, Delgado, Delgadillo, Fernandez de Palos, Flores, Gonzales, Lozano, Macias, Oliva, Perez, Ramos, Romo de Vivar, Rubalcava, Ruiz de Esparza, Santos, Saucedo, Texeda, Tiscareno and Ximenes just to name a few.

This book can be purchased through this website:

I would like to thank you, Arturo for giving me your input regarding this online publisher. This is my second book and the results are wonderful.

Introduction

Hello,
My name is Tina Eley and new to the group. I have been doing family research for a few years but now since retirement am able to devote more time to it. I have found so much information on my family that it is difficult to comprehend how large the family was.
The names I am currently researching are Hernandez or es, Chaves, Murillo, Arias, De La Torre. This would be my Mothers side of the family.

I do read some spanish but this has forced me to study it a little be more. The writing on the baptism and marriage records is so difficult to read and then there are so many abreviations.

I am currently looking for Pedro hernandes Gonzales Baptism record which I can not find on family search. It must be there but several of us have tried finding with no luch. It would be in Tepatitlan De Morelos, Jalisco, Mexico. His father was Andres h
Hernandes and mother Floretina Gonzales. My genealogy report is in the following folder.

I look forward to working with the group

Abbreviation Question: "Esp" in 1756 Jerez Baptism Record

Hello!
I am reading and trying to understand what this abbreviation means in this baptism record. It looks like "Esp" and I am not sure what that is abbreviated for. I do see it in a few other records, but not a lot. Can anyone assist?

Here is the link to FamilySearch. It is on the bottom of the left side of the page for Joseph Bisente Roman, after it says his name "Joseph Bisente" and before the abbreviation for "son". I am thinking it is for illegitimate? But I am not sure.

Thank you all so very much!

Kristine

Dear Primos and Friends:

I mentioned in the May issue that in January 2014, Somos Primos will be moving towards sharing personal and family histories. With so many new Internet resources for genealogical research, I want to go beyond the dates and focus on giving readers the opportunity of sharing their personal and family histories on Somos Primos.

In support of that goal, I can recommend a very comfortable approach for everyone . First Writes, triggers memories and recall with a series of unfinished sentences. More than ten year ago, I participated in a class at our local senior citizen center. I really enjoyed it and ended up finishing the class for the teacher, who was not able to continue.
First Writes consists of 40 topics with about 20 questions in each unit.
The materials were developed as a method to gather oral histories among senior citizens in Wisconsin, but they are universal, and with some adaptation could be used with all ages. View the 40 topics and samples of four units which can be downloaded for free.
http://www.somosprimos.com/write.htm

Writing a personal history or family history is an adventure, insightful and healing for the soul. I hope you all check it out.

God bless, Mimi

Looking for Luna relatives

Hi
My genealogy research is at a stand still right now. In my family they never talked about there origins or family and so it is hard to find out where my family comes from. I just receintly found out from looking at a birth certificate that my grandfather Celso Lara Luna was born on aug. 6, 1896 in Logas de Moreno, jal. I do not know if he had any brothers or sisters, I don't even know his mother and father's names. He married his wife, Candelaria L. Martinez b. about 1906 in what I think is aguascalientes. (my dad said his mother didn't know her birthdate because her father never told his children when they were born, so I am assuming she has siblings.) Celso and Candelaria moved to the states, I am assuming around 1930 because their first child was born in El Paso, tx in 1932. If anything sounds familar to you please get in contact with me. Thank you for your time.

Apolonia de Mendoza

Hola miembros,

My name is Ashlynn Marie Castaneda. I joined a few weeks ago, but didn't
get a chance to introduce myself while finishing up classes. I just
graduated college last week and am taking a year off for an internship
before going to law school. I'm hoping to use this time to further my
ancestral search. I'm focusing on my female line right now since my dad is
not nearly as interested or as excited as my mom by searching for records.
I'm hoping to find the marriage record and parents of Apolonia de Mendoza
and Jose Ruvalcaba. I believe they're both from Encarnación de Díaz. They
would've been married somewhere between 1800 - 1820, I'm guessing. They
probably would've been born around 1800. I only know they're names from the
marriage record of their child that I descend from. Hopefully, someone will
be able to assist.

Have a great Memorial Day weekend,

Ashlynn

Zacoalco de Torres

My GgggggGrandpa Thomas Ramires and Maria de Guerta were married on Jan 29, 1749 in Zacoalco de Torres, Jalisco Mexico. I found this entry on Family Search https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/JCFC-RQV
but cannot find it on the microfiche rolls. I tried going to the following link
https://familysearch.org/search/image/index#uri=https%3A%2F%2Ffamilysea…
but had no luck. I feel like I'm looking in the wrong place. Please help.

Renteria

Looking for family information for Consuelo Renteria Fernandez. She was born about 1908 in Citala, Jalisco. She lived in Sayula with her son in 1930 census. She became a school teacher and later a headmistress in Guadalajara. She died after March 1988, likely in Guadalajara, as that was the last communication the family had with her youngest son Armando. Her older son Alejandro Renteria Becerra was a physician and immigrated to the US in 1954. She had traveled to Nw York in the 1960s and early 1970s to visit him so there should be some civil record of her.

Colonial Transportation and Lights for Night

I have been wondering alot about how it must have been like to travel on carriages pulled by horses when they travel to other towns. Also the methods for using lights at night during the colonial days.

If the Conde Fernando Campo de Cos of Hacienda San Mateo from Valparaiso, Zacatecas, Mexico had to travel to the city of Zacatecas. In today's methods of travel it would have been a 3 hour drive on car.

But in a colonial carriage it would have taken days. So what would have they done at night? I would think that they would have stopped at relief stations which are a number of villages that are along the highway. And those villages still exist to this day. That would have been more comfortable to travel during the day along the highway and stop at a village at night. The horse would have to be exchanged for fresh horses to travel on the next day.

Now regarding the lighting used for night time. Lots of candles and imagine the smell of candle wax inside the buildings and outside along the streets in the towns.

Atotonilco - Becerra Family

Looking for information on the family of Ramon Becerra F(Franco?) who was born in the early 1900s (1902-1908?) in Atotonilco, Jalisco. It's unclear "which" Atotonilco. The family of Ramon Becerra was said to be wealthy ranch owners in the area in the late 1920s. Does anyone has any record of such family/ranch?

Family Search

Is anyone else having difficulty getting onto Familysearch.com? For the past 2 days I get a blank white page when I try to download. Also the search page won't search. Am I doing something wrong?
Deedra Corona

For Deeda: Juan (not Francisco) Garcia de Alba

Hi Deedra (and others):

I believe I have solved out little mystery. Juan Garcia de Alba and Juan Francisco García de Alba are not the same person. They are brothers.

I finally found Juan García de Alba's death record in Autlan: He died 22 May 1779 in Autlan, and Rosa de la Cueva survived him. Here is the link:

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-18531-34799-55?cc=1874591&wc…

Since your earlier message indicated correctly that Francisco died 13 Feb 1773 in Ejutla they cannot be the same person.
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-18562-7901-48?cc=1874591&wc=…

So, to prove they are brothers, their respective marriages prove them to be sons of Manuel García de Alba and Nicolasa de Santana.

I know you have these (since you pointed them out to me), but just so all the info is in one place:

Juan García de Alba married Rosa de la Cueva 14 Apr 1738 in Tecolotlán.
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-18715-15394-58?cc=1874591&wc…

And Juan Francisco García de Alba married María Gertrudis Rosales on 19 Feb 1746 in Ejutla.
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-18567-3932-9?cc=1874591&wc=1…

It is so satisfying when we can figure these things out!

Cheers!
