Hello Maureen,

While researching microfilm for San Juan de los Lagos, Jalisco, I have
come across records from a Ranch called Ojo de Agua located in the
municipio of San Juan de los Lagos. I don't think that I have any
direct family from there, and being that I don't have any direct
Jaureguis in my family lines, I probably have not jotted down anything.
It wouldn't hurt to check out San Juan records.

Good luck.

There is an Ojo de Agua in the Santa Maria de Los Angeles area of
Jalisco but not so sure it doesn't show up in the Colotlan records. . .I
can't remember which of these two it was that the actual records showed
up in.

Dear Joseph:
I took another look at the records on the Valle de Guadalupe film and the scribe that wrote Catarina Jauregui's origin only wrote around 7 records on that film. All of the "A's" were the loopy kind and not the pointed Ojo de Agua.

However, I found a record in San Miguel from my early searches where the Ojo de Agua was written two different ways. Obviously a different person might have been writing in the margin than that of the baptismal document, but curiously the "m" in the margin matches the "m" in the document. The San Miguel document is the baptism of Miguel Gutierrez Martin 1895 son of Julian Gutierrez and Macaria? Martin if anyone is interested in it, it is entitled Ojo de Agua San Miguel.

The next document is a Valle de Guadalupe baptism of Maria Gavina Sanchez Vazquez 1912. Here it lists the padrinos being from the rancho of Ojo de Agua. If anyone is interested in viewing it is entitled Ojo de Agua Valle de Guadalupe.

Although there were probably many Ojo de Aguas, I feel that San Miguel El Alto, Valle de Guadalupe and San Juan Los Lagos, being in close together, this may be the same ranch. I am not sure how close Santo Maria de Los Angeles is as I have not located nearby on the map.

Here is the link for the new documents:
