I've just updated my file on Rootsweb.com. I've been working on making corrections after I merged files incorrectly and it combined families that were not connected. I've been making corrections for 2 years now 1 surname at a time. My records are for Zacatecas, Jalisco and Michoacan. My file name is Mexico and my Father Aniceto (Chet) Castanon is my starting point for reference and Jerez, Zacatecas is our ancestral home for my paternal lines and Tamazula, Jalisco for my maternal lines.
I also want to thank members of Nuestrosranchos for sharing and opening their files to us all so we have been able to make connections and reclaim our history. The ancestors have smiled and had fun with us in our search for them. I hope I've pleased them and made them proud.
