Hello everyone, my name is Alejandra Araujo. I have done a ton of research on most branches of my family history. Currently, I would like to ask if anyone has any further information on the Araujo family around southern Zacatecas in Griegos, Luis Moya, and Ojocaliente. They seemed to marry with the Oballe family which has all kinds of different spellings (Obaye/Ubaye/Ovalle/Uvalle). Here is the farthest back I've been able to go through the Araujo branch:

NARCISO ARAUJO born abt. 1800 married to CANDELARIA LOPEZ HERNANDEZ born abt. 1805

Children of NARCISO ARAUJO and CANDELARIA LOPEZ HERNANDEZ:

i. MARIA DOLORES ARAUJO born abt. 1825
ii. JOSE LEANDRO born in 1829
iii. MIGUEL ARAUJO born abt. 1835
iv. ROSALIO ARAUJO born abt. 1840

ROSALIO ARAUJO born abt. 1840 married to FRANCISCA OBALLE born abt. 1830

Children of ROSALIO ARAUJO and FRANCISCA OBALLE:

i. JUAN ARAUJO born abt. 1851
ii. CATARINO ARAUJO born abt. 1858
iii. HIPOLITA ARAUJO born abt. 1861

CATARINO ARAUJO born abt. 1858 in Griegos, Zacatecas married ROMULA MEZA on 3 June 1877 in Ojocalientes, Zacatecas. ROMULA MEZA was born abt. 1861.

Children of CATARINO ARAUJO and ROMULA MEZA:

i. JULIANA ARAUJO born on 20 December 1880 in Luis Moya, Zacatecas
ii. PLUTARCA ARAUJO born on 27 June 1882 in Ojocaliente, Zacatecas
iii. FRANCISCO ARAUJO born abt. 1885, died in 1888
iv. FERNANDO ARAUJO born on 30 May 1888 in Griegos, Zacatecas
v. FAUSTINO ARAUJO born and died in 1890
vi. AGAPITA ARAUJO born on 20 September 1891 in Luis Moya, Zacatecas

I hit a dead end once I get to Narciso and Candelaria. If anyone has any info on them, please do share. I look forward to working with you all on here.

Sincerely,

Alejandra Araujo

^Here is info I have of the Castros in Jalisco and Aguascalientes.

Hi Alejandra, Welcome to the Nuestrosranchos group. I have nosed around at a lot of familysearch records over the past 5 years or so, particularly Padrons and Dispensas. In the 1824 Ojocaliente (Zacatecas) padron (census), in the town of San Diego, there is a Narciso Gomes and Maria Candelaria Lopes listed in this padron, along with Rosalio Gomes, age 4 in 1824. Narciso is age 22 (born circa 1802), and Candelaria is age 25 (born circa 1799). Narciso Gomes is living in the household of Pedro Gomes (age 60), and Maria Yrinea Alvarado (age 55). Also living in this household is Alejo Gomes (age 13), and Maria Josefa Gomes (age 19), who are both likely siblings of Narciso. Alejo Gomes is later listed in a marriage record as Alejo Araujo, so I believe this is your family, and likely parents of your Narciso are Pedro Araujo (Gomes) and Maria Yrinea Alvarado.

The padron is located at:

Alejo Gomes is found later in a 23 April 1829 Ojocaliente (Zacatecas) informational marriage record as Alejo Aranjo, son of Pedro Aranjo and Yrinea Albarado. His birth year is listed 1811, which matches the Padron from 1824. This informational marriage record is located at.

Hope this might help you some.
