SMGF DNA

Hi,

I've taken the test and these are my pros and cons:

Pros
It's Free
I got 29 markers and you could get up to 40 something
Even though your haplotype is not published you can easily get it from the site itself by shuffling some numbers.

Cons
It takes forever to see your results published (in my case it took more than six months)
I have no results for some markers and there is no way to ask for them

Asunto: [Nuestros Ranchos] SMGF DNA

Hi,
I also sent them a sample for free DNA testing and am planning to send them more. I've heard that it usually takes them a very long time to post online your results for the free test, I don't know if the results for the paid test are faster.
For the paid test, they give you the results. For the free test they don't give you the results but they publish them online. The problem is that they don't exactly post your actual results, but a chart where they show which of your results match and don't match an standard they have. You can change the values of this standard on their webpage and figure out your results by trial and error, but you may need some patience.
Finally, as they mention in their website, they are not affiliated to any Church. However, in the release form you signed it says they may share all the information you send them (i.e., your family tree) with their sponsors, like the Sorenson family. And I can't help to wonder whether these third parties will or will not use this information for religious purposes within their faith.

SMGF DNA Participation

Hi, all. I don't know if this would interest anyone, but I sumbitted my DNA for the Sorenson Molecular Genealogy Project and they sent me a code for discounted DNA Analysis through Relative Genetics (see below for details) for participating (open to friends and family upon participation). If you've been thinking of getting your DNA tested for genealogical purposes, then maybe this is worth a look-see. If anyone has heard of this lab, will you be so kind as to give us your input and thoughts on this "deal?" Thanks!

Ruiz/Sedano - Typhoid Epidemic in Zacatecas

Hi, all. While attempting to obtain some oral history from my grandmother on my Ruiz and Sedano lines from Tlaltenango & Sedanos, Zacatecas, I found out that one of my Ruiz ancestors was born "in the year of the typhoid epidemic." Now, I imagine this was probably sometime after 1920, which is the approximate year of my great-great grandfather's, Felipe Ruiz Róbles, marriage to my great-grandmother. The reason I mention him is becuase he was one of those assigned to carry the catloads of typhoid victims to the "camposanto." My grandmother says that when the poor, homeless people who would go around asking for "un atolito," the cart carriers would say, "Atolito? ¡Cual! ¡Camposanto!" and then throw them in the cart and take them to the camposanto (Probably because they figured they were already carrying the disease.). Anyway, I know that is not relevant, but I thought it was an interesting anecdote. My real purpose for this post is to find out if anyone has come across any reference to this "year of the typhoid epidemic" that may help me to find the birth year for this ancestor and possible a lead to follow for my elusive paternal lines...

Thanks for reading this!

This is mainly directed at new members, who may not have yet downloaded and read the Nuestros Ranchos User Guide, but also a reminder to older members. Please remember that messages sent to the list become available to the general public and that there are about a dozen messages sent a day. So in order to maintain members' privacy and facilitate reading of messages, we ask you adhere to these rules:

1. No personal information on the forums or email lists. This includes phone numbers, addresses, birthdates, etc. If you need to communicate this information to another member, please do so privately via the contact form for that member.

2. Cut the trailing messages when you respond to a message. Often messages are sent out that include one short sentence and dozens upon dozens of lines of previous messages’ text to which the author is replying. While the text of previous messages is often important for the reader to correctly establish context of the response, too much extraneous text often causes the reader to be unable to find the relevant information being communicated. When replying to a message, make sure that only the minimum amount of previous message text necessary for context is included. Usually, a few lines of the message to which you are replying are sufficient to give the reader context. Certainly the previous three emails’ text is not necessary. Furthermore, on the website, all the previous messages will be displayed for a given thread so these previous emails’ text will simply be redundant. When responding to a message, remember to always clip your reply trail.

Frecuentemente se envían mensajes que incluyen una oración breve y docenas y docenas de renglones del texto de los mensajes previos a los cuales el autor esté respondiendo. Aunque el texto de los mensajes previos a veces es importante para que le lector establezca correctamente el contexto de la respuesta, a veces el excesivo texto hace que el lector no encuentre la información relevante que se está tratando de comunicar. Al responder a un mensaje asegúrese de incluir solamente la cantidad mínima de texto del mensaje previo que sea necesario. Regularmente es suficiente con unos cuantos renglones del mensaje al que se está respondiendo para darle el contexto al lector. Ciertamente no es necesario incluir el texto de los tres correos anteriores.

"my account" and click on "edit" then to "my mailing lists" and then
change your email delivery from "all mail" to "digest" which will mean
that instead of getting many individual emails everyday you'll get one
large email with all that days activity within. If you really have to
you can also choose "no mail" which means you'll have to go to the site

Zacatecas, Coahuila - connection researching Gutierrez line

Hi - I have been trying to research the Gutierrez line in both Zacatecas and in Sierra Mojada Coahuila. I ordered some civil records for the area of Sierra Mojada in Coahuila hoping to find my grandather's civil record. I looked through the microfilm the other day and he did not appear in these records. His parents were from Zacatecas but in order for me to find out more about them, I have to start with my grandfather first. The problem is that I have a name of a church (not listed in LDS records) but not sure where this churches parish records would be located.
Sierra Mojada is bordered by Durango, Chihuahua, the U.S. Sierra Mojada was a district of Monclava at one time (I was told). Do I look for the archdiocese of Monclava for Sierra Mojada parish records? also -- On one of the civil microfilm records, there were many parish records of families who originated in Zacatecas. They must have come to Sierra Mojada starting in 1879 when silver and copper were discovered there. Thanks for any hints from anyone who may know about Coahuila and links to Zacatecas.

Many of the Alviso men I am researching married in their 20's, but then after their first wife passed away, would marry again in their 40's to women in their early 20's. It may have been your gg's second marriage and usually the second marriage document will list the first wife and how long ago she had passed. This is how I found one ancestor. I was looking at a microfilm for the marriage of a son and the father happened to get married again in the same year. It listed the father's first wife and when she had died, so I knew the approximate year of death for my ancestor. Neat hah!

Santelices and Valderramas

Good Evening Arturo,
Thanks so much for the film numbers. I can't believe I missed them in the LDS catalog. My FHC is open tomorrow evening, so I'll order them right away. I'm afraid I don't have a scanner, but maybe the people at the FHC can upload it for me. Where do you want it uploaded to? I'm sure they will know how to accomplish this, but please let me know where. I'll follow as many leads as possible. Many thanks. Alice

I see that you have one date for a marriage in Panuco but I cannot estimate dates for other events because I cannot tell whether 1st generation is older or younger than 2nd generation, etc., i.e. is Jose Maria Santelices Francisco Santelices father or son or neither?

Genealogy Software Assurance

This is to Juanita and anyone else who believes they can't learn to download and operate the free PAF Software.
Listen up.........if I can do it you can do it, for this 57 year old grandmother to do it, anyone can do it. First go to www.familysearch.org. On the top there will be a row of blue tabs and it says order/download products, click on that blue tab. Another screen comes up and in the middle of that page it will say software downloads/free, click on that. It will ask you what language you want and the english language is free as well as the multi-language. Those would be numbers 77062988-s english language or 77062000's multi-language. Once you've decided and clicked on your choice it will give you your system requirements and it will tell you how to proceed.

The software is very easy to operate and you can begin using it and typing in your information. You will say to yourself, why didn't I do this sooner it was so easy. This makes it easy to keep track of your data/history and share it with friends, family etc and for you to see your progress. It also encourages you to do lateral research because you have a place to put everyone. It's like running a home, once you have adequate storage you know where to find everything, a place for everything and everything in it's place.

Genealogy software works just like storage, it's storage for our ancestors, a place for everyone and everyone in their place, neatly availabe for us to find them and place them with their respective family members.

I hope this helps..........Alicia in San Jose, Calif

Thank You Alicia

Arturo,

You are welcome, it is always my pleasure to help out and because I am self taught on the computer, most everything I have learned is by trial and error and believe me there has been much error but every mistake I make allows me to learn something new. If I didn't take the risk and try something, I would not learn something new.

I receive so much from the wonderful people in this group that feels like family that I can't help but give something back whenever I have the opportunity.

Isn't it amazing how each one of us came to do our research. We collectively could probably write a book on how to do research in Mexico and each of us could include our personal experience and a little about our journey, our musings, how we listen to our ancestors as they try and guide us. Just another one of my crazy dreams.

Subject: [Nuestros Ranchos] Thank You Alicia

Alicia:

Thank you for sharing your experience with genealogy software and more importantly your analogy of such software and storage in one's home. It is a very vivid and valid analogy.

Just to share another story, this is how I got started with genealogy. My father asked me to help him organize information that he had so he could create a chart of some sort for a family reunion... if I had only known what I was getting into when I volunteered for the task and downloaded PAF...

My only mistake was to start entering names as quickly as possible without entering appropriate source information and details as to conjectures I was making along the way when the source documents did not explicitly state a relationship... Now it has become a real headache to fix what could have been done right from the onset with very little additional efforts. So my advice to anyone starting out is to document everything... PAF and other software has places to put notes and sources and these should be used extensively. You will thank yourself a few years down the line, not to mention that generations after you will thank you profusely as they review your work.

Delgados of Pinos, Zacatecas

Dear Grupo, You guys need to realize and appreciate how truly blessed you are! You have been able to make family connections and share information. Everyday I read every email, even the ones I struggle with in Spanish. Every week I go to my FHC and find absolutely nothing. If it weren't that the only documented family members are in Panuco, Zacatecas, I'd think I'm in the wrong group! I need to share my experience, because I don't want the group to think that I don't care to share or don't work on my genealogy. It's just not happening. If there are any Santelices, Valerramas, Candelas, or Onates from the 19th to 20th century that I could connect with; I'd love to hear from you. Take care and continued success. Alice

ACTUALLY, I WILL CONFESS THAT IT BRINGS TEARS TO MY EYES WHEN I DISCOVER SOMEONE NEW, I WISH I KNEW MORE ABOUT THEM, AND HAVE PICTURES, ETC.

Arturo,

Yes, you are so right about researching horizontally. I think I sort of
avoided that since I was working on three different lineages, and I thought
I couldn't afford to spend mroe time on any new people. I thought, "Now,
I'll never be finished".

I did just a couple of times: I found JUAN JOSEPH DELGADO in the 1780
census of REVILLA, TAMAULIPAS, who's wife was MARIA MARGARITA SANCHEZ DIAZ.
When I looked up more on her I found her father was JUAN BAUTISTA SANCHEZ,
brother of TOMAS SANCHEZ, the founder of LAREDO, MEXICO.Those censuses sure
do tell a lot.

And I really went back to the ancestry of MARIA JOSEFA GUTIERREZ de LARA,
who
married my ggggg grpa, JOSEPH MARIA TAMAYO y LUNA. I ran into a sonewall
with his ancestry, but found lots on her.

You are so right.

Thanks for listening.

Hi, Peggy Delgado

I tried getting to you through your e-mail, but couldn't.

I see where you have? birth records from a place in Zacatecas. Where were you able to obtain them? My interest is also in Zacatecas, in San Matias, Pinos, but looks like I have run into a stone wall. Haven't met anyone outhere with the same interest.

Do you have a genealogy on your DELGADOS?

Saving and storing records

Like many of you I wish I had known back then what I know now abt saving and citing records.. I am learning from my mistakes and only making new mistakes!

My husband had repeatedly told me to back my files up in a place other than my laptop but I didn't listen so when I turned off my virus scanner and got a worm that wiped out everthing I had entered in the last 6 months I was very depressed.. I had my records from previously backing up 6 months before on a different computer. I lost photo's that I'd taken 2 years collecting from relatives on visits to California and I lost almost 5,000 names. Luckily I did still have the film records so it's been a matter of re-entering them for the past 6 months, a very hard task since I'm not sure what I entered during that time making going over the film notes one by one..

I'm trying to focus on Jerez Zacatecas but the ancestors from Zapotlan El Grande and Tamazula Jalisco keep pulling me in that direction, in fact that's where I started my research on my mothers family. I"m finding so many errors I guess I was meant to go back and clean up the records, add citations and connect lines I didn't realize were related..

I hope sharing my mistakes and experiences will make some of the new members aware of some of the pitfalls of reclaming the ancestors..

On Sephardic . com the man who hosts the site has cumulated huge book of persons, He used to be very good about e-mailing names in certain locals if he found them in his research. Their are also lists of surnames and how many times in history and it is a good spring board.
