Joseph and Charles,

I know one of the major Estancias was La Estanica de los Delgadillos. I will look up some of the others and get back to you soon.

Hi All,

Charles asked me this question and since my research is not around
Nochistlan I thought I'd forward this on to the group. If any of you all
have this information maybe it would be good to make a file in the
reference area of the group for the Estancias.

thanks,

joseph

Joseph:

Do you have a list of the La Estancias ... in and around Nochistlan?

I have been looking for the complete name of the birth place of my
grandfather, Pedro Rodriguez born in 1883 in "La Estancia." He was
married to Maria Ulloa and they had many many common ancestors with many
of them listed in Jose Luis Vasquez y Rodriguez de Frias' book. That is
how the place was described by my mother and her sisters but I know
that that was only part of the name. I thought that the birth
certificate would give the full name except that it is too hard to read.
I recently saw pictures of it and it seemed a bit larger than I
expected. I also saw pictures of his house which I am told is over 300
years old.

As always, I appreciate any help you can give me.

Sincerely,

Charles Clark
