Question for Daniel Mendez

Hello Daniel! I had been wondering about Quezada surname in your rootsweb database, what was your source? ´Cause it brings out my curiosity that in this, my era, I always knew my last name is Leon, then about three years ago I found out about the Cos or Coss from my research in films, and then and last I met the Quezada added to Coss Y Leon in your data. So, what is the source?

(yeah, remember "what is the matrix?" from the movie) Greetings from Leticia Leon

Fw: RE: The original GARCIA last name is "GARCIA DE ALBA"

Hi, All,
I've been having problems with my e-mail so I'm hoping this time I reach someone. 
 
A few days ago I sent the attached information to Gloria Fuentes and (I thought) to Nuestros Ranchos;  but I have not seen it posted with the rest of the correspondence, and I don't think Gloria got it either;  so I'm re-sending it.  Hopefully this time I have the right   address(es) and it gets posted in the general correspondence. 
 
Hope to hear from someone...

Hi, Gloria.
Thanks for inquiring about my Sandoval family....  I have had very little time to work on my genealogy, and when I have checked my e-mail, I haven't seen any of the name combinations below being discussed on NR forums, so I am really glad you contacted me.
 
Here's the Sandoval side of my family:
 
- Mother:  Maria Guadalupe SANDOVAL
- - Grandfather:    Jose Melquiades SANDOVAL
- - Grandmother:  Maria Isaac SANDOVAL (yes...!)
- - - PG Grandparents:   Nicolas de SANDOBAL
                                         Maria Ladislao SEPULVEDA
- - - MG Grandparents:  Jose Hilario SANDOVAL
                                         Maria Juana ORTIS
- - - - PGG Grandparents:  Jose Maria SANDOBAL
                                                 & Jasinta YNIGUES
                                              Guillermo SEPULVEDA
                                                 & ?Simona SANDOVAL?
- - - - MGG Grandparents:  Buenaventura SANDOVAL
                                                 & Higinia DELGADILLO
                                              Jose Carlos ORTIZ
                                                 & Agustina ANDRADE
 
As you can see, I'm finding out that I, too, come from that great legion of 'Jalisco-ites' who had to obtain the Church's dispensation just about every time there was a wedding!...
> Most of the relatives above were baptized and/or married in Teocaltiche and Ostotan, with a couple of events happening in Mexticacan and Nochistlan.
> I have a lot more details on most of the relatives listed above, but for now, I just wanted to see if you even recognize any of the names.
 
Last time I went to Jalisco was probably in the late '70's, and I wasn't at all interested in genealogy then. However, it really registered with me that when we went to Ostotan, a lot of the residents came out to greet us, and a lot of them were our relatives!   I've been wanting to go back ever since, but life got in the way...  
 
Let me know if any names look familiar.... I really hope we can make a connection!...

Macias in Jalpa

Amelia, I have the civil records from Jalpa from 1887 - 1895. I am almost
done with them. Where do you live? Perhaps instead of returning them, if you
live close by, LDS will allow me to forward them to a LDS center near you.
For some reason, from 1891 and forward, for the most part, it lists grandparents
names but from 1860 to 1890 it does not. Or, let me know what year you are
looking for and I'll try to find it and forward you a copy.

Mercedes.

What I said was, "I find some of those stories coming from Sombrerete, Zacatecas, and now Lester thinks it came from Coahuila. You say the story came from Lagos in Jalisco".

I didn't say you said Thomas was from Coahuila, just that the story also came from there. The Edison descendant said he wouldn't care if Thomas was born in Mexico if he was, but he knows he wasn't. Why should it be proved otherwise?

TRIPLE WHAMMY !! (Fun Fact)

FUN FACT

Ygnacia de Leon (b. Abt. 1702 in Tlaltenango, Zacatecas, Mexico)

Ygnacia de Leon is my 5th Great Grandaunt twice (both of her brothers, Francisco Xavier and Bartholome, are my 5th Great Grandfathers) and she is also my 6th Grandmother (equal to her father, Manuel de Leon, who is also my 6th Grandfather twice via Francisco Xavier and Bartholome, and who is also my 7th Great Grandfather via Ygnacia) !!

Both Francisco Xavier de Leon and his brother Bartholome are 2nd Great Grandfathers of my Grandfather Nicolas de Leon whose wife Refugio Covarrubias (my Grandmother) has Ygnacia de Leon as her 3rd Great Grandmother!

Fw: To Juan Cristobal re Encarnacion Families

Juan Cristobal,

I meant to say that my husband's great-grandmother was Marciana Cervantes. I left out a generation there. My husband's grandfather, father of Enrique, was Primitivo Garcia, and his grandmother was Maria Hinojosa.

Juan Cristobal,

Above is a link to my husband's family tree that I have on WorldConnect. There is a Villalobos in there too.

My husband's name is Antonio Carlos Garcia Acosta. His father was Enrique Garcia Hinojosa, and his grandfather was Simon Garcia Ornelas. Simon was also descended from the Morones, Ornelas, Gonzalez, Calzada, Magdaleno, Perez, Villalobos on his father's side.

My husband's grandmother, wife of Simon, was Marciana Cervantes. Her father was Jose Ysac Cervantes, and her mother was Maria Castula Aguirre. Marciana was also descended from de Allon, Rubalcaba, Marin, Martin, Duron, Narvaes, Gonzales, and Chaves.

T. Alva Edison on 1860 census

I found Thomas Alva Edison on the 1860 census for Port Huron, St. Clair County, Michigan:

Samuel Edison age 55 farmer born in N.Scotia
Nancy age 51 born in N. Y.
Alvah age 13 newsboy born in Ohio

It doesn't seem he was known as Thomas Alva until later in life. Here he is listed only as "Alvah" the first name he used then he was a newsboy in Port Huron, Michigan.

saludos desde houston. estoy interesado de buscar datos de familiares en aguascalientes con apellido de medrano o delgadillo o prieto. He oido que antes de 1830 fueron de zacatecas y despues colocaron en aguascalientes. Los unicos nombres que tengo son Emeterio Delgadillo, Juana Prieto, Maria Delgadillo Prieto, Ignacio Medrano. Muchas gracias adelantadas en cualquier ayuda que pueden presentar.

Surname: Macias

My name is Amelia Macias. I'm trying to get information on relatives on my father's side of the family. At this time, I have very little information to go on, but hope that as I research chruch records, and known relatives that I may be able to supply information in more detail.

My father, Jose Jesus Tostado Macias was born in Jalpa, Zacatecas in 1923. He has siblings by the names of Antonio (died in Aguascalientes), Angel (no info but presume he was born in Jalpa), Socorro born in Jalpa and died there at age 32 or so. my father Jose Jesus and the youngest, Jovita born in Jalpa ( 10 April 1931 (married Andres Marin also from Jalpa, were married in Jalpa).

My grandfather was Jose Macias born about 1860 - 1880 in Jalpa. Grandmother's last name was Tostado, first name unknown also birthdate unknown, but believe she died in 1960 in Jalpa. May have been married between 1900 - 1910 and I assume in Jalpa as well.

My father believes that my Tio Antonio's family (wife Socorro he thinks) and their children still live in Jalpa.

If you have any information about the Macias' of Jalpa, Zacatecas, please feel free to contact me. I will post more info as I acquire it. If at all possible, please write in English, but Spanish is OK too.

Respectfully, Amelia Macias

Martha DuronJimenez Books

John Gonzalez,

A while ago you mentioned a book by Martha Duron Jimenez.

I am wondering if you know of a book of hers that lists her Duron ancestors.

One of my husband's lines are the Durons of Aguascalientes.

In his lines are also those surnames you mentioned were in her book "Familias Endogamicas en Saltillo y Los Altos de Jalisco", the Gonzalez, Martin, Munos, Perez, etc., but right now I would like to know more about the Durons of Aguascalientes.

Thanks,

"Calavera Highway" - on PBS

Just wondering if anyone else had seen the documentary, "Calavera Highway", a 'Point of View' (POV) documentary that aired on PBS (I saw it last night, Sep 16), but others may have seen it the night before last. This is not a genealogical story, but it is a family history story. The following is a brief description of the documentary:

"Brothers Armando and Carlos go on a road trip to reunite their siblings, and return their mother's ashes to South Texas. Their journey takes them across the American west and central past, and they probe not only Rosa's life, but their own struggles to find identities as men and as fathers."

You can read more at this PBS link:
http://www.pbs.org/pov/pov2008/calaverahighway/

(And take time to read some of the other links associated with this documentary, as well as comments that have been posted here): http://www.pbs.org/pov/blog/2008/09/whats_your_pov_about_calavera.html
