Boronda/Voronda

Message from Emilie Garcia auntyemfaustus@...

Kim,
 
I see that you were looking for any Borondas in Jerez, Zacatecas. 

 
Have you seen the one listed in the FamilySearch.com IGI?  Her name is
Maria Josefa de la Santisima Trinidad Voronda, and she was baptized in Jerez on
May 9, 1784.  There is no father listed for her, only a mother by the name
of Maria Jasinta Voronda.  The film # is 0439846. 
 
The only other Vorondas listed in the IGI were two that were baptized in
Santiago, Bilbao, Vizcaya (Spain) in the 1500's.  I find that this name is
usually spelled Borunda in Mexico.  The records of the Spanish Archives for
passengers to the new world show only one person by that name, Gonzalo Borunda,
who came to the Dominican Republic in the 1500s.

Prudencio Herrera

In a message dated 8/15/2007 10:32:37 A.M. Central Daylight Time,
arturo.ramos2@gmail.com writes:

There is a Prudencio Herrera, soltero who appears in the census under Rancho
de Michaela Ponce, but just squeezed in at the end and the next rancho is
none other than Rancho de las Ranas, where there appear two sets of Herrera
brothers: Juan Antonio Herrera married to Lugarda de los Santos Orozco and Juan
Pedro Herrera; and Luis Florencio Herrera married to Maria Tiburcia Perez de
Texeda and Cayetano Valerio.

I am pretty certain that the two sets of brothers are all siblings and they
are listed with their grandmother Petra Roldana, viuda. I know that the
father of this second set of brothers was Cayetano Marin de Herrera and their
mother was Ana Santiago de Llamas.

I know that Petra Roldana was mother of Cayetano Marin de Herrera through a
marriage dispensation from Luz Montejano's book. I also know that Juan Pedro
Herrera and Cayetano Valerio were brothers because their baptism records
show the same parents, see IGI 12 Sep 1738 and 1 Mar 1736 baptisms or in my
Tlaltenango families database.

I have down the parents of Prudencio Marin Herrera were Luis Marin Herrera
and Maria Soza Serrano. I have a strong feeling that Luis Marin Herrera and
Luis Florencio Herrera are related...if the parents of Luis Florencio was
Cayetano Marin Herrera...it could mean that my Prudencio and Cayetano were half
siblings (with different mothers). I am thinking (if I am right) that he was
living in his own household...and about to get married to his first wife.

For a woman, it is beginning to sound like a death sentence to marry back in
those days.

Again, thanks for keeping me in mind and sharing...I soo appreciate it.
After growing up with no family, it is very cool to know that I had/have tons of
family.

In the census that you are extracting from that time frame, does it record
the "ethnicity", as in Espanol, mulatto, mestizo, etc??

Abrazo Fuerte

Rancho las Ranas

Wow, thanks for this information. Pedro Prudencio Marin de Herrera
originated in this little rancho and was married several times during the mid
1700's....one of his wives was a Bugarin and one was an Estrada. Who knows, we might
be very distantly related!

Rancho de las Ranas - Marin de Herrera

Arturo,

I wonder how close the two ranchos (de las Ranas and Loera)? It appears
that the two families had a connection....now to unravel the mystery....

Thanks for keeping me in mind Arturo.

Ruiz de Esparza Family 1500's

I was recently surfing on Family Search and found the place where Lope Ruiz de Esparza originated from has several films from the 1500's. Ciudad Esparza, Pamplona, Navarre, Espana. Has anyone ever ordered this film. Its possible that Lope Sr. or his grandfather Martin Ruis de Esparza, or grt gf Simon Ruis de Esparza might be in this film

Bautismos 1535-1698 Matrimonios 1564-1698 Defunciones 1569-1698 - FHL INTL Film [ 1361494 Item 5 ]

These are the ones that might be use to us. There are about 5 others that might help track down other relatives.

Im thinking of ordering them myself sometime in the future to find Lope Ruiz de Esparza's Baptism. and His parents, Marriage.

Calvillo, Aguas.
#0635767 - Baptisms 1839-1847

(I would be glad to look up something if you need. If you don't have the
film yet on Nicolas's reported baptismal (I saw the IGI), I'd be glad to
look it up. I didn't even realize I had #0299424.)

---------------------------------------
These might be related: 3 Tiscareno women (Beatris, Ysabel & Juana)...2 of
whom married Dias men...and one (Juana) who didn't marry a Diaz man, but
whose 3 daughters married Dias men. This one is a stretch.....probably not
related, but....I offer the following:

Beatris Tiscareno (daughter of Luis Tiscareno & Lorenza Ruis De Esparsa)
baptised 22 March 1639 Aguas., Aguas., Godmother: Beatris de Retamosa
IGI Film #0299421, p. 86

married

Baltasar Dias
died 6 April 1677 Aguas., Aguas., IGI Film #0299856, p. 73
(He left Nicolas de Aguilera, a local merchant, as his executor,
and mentions nothing of children)

Their son: Joseph bap. 24 May 1663, Aguas., Aguas. (with the note:
instante periculo mortis)
Godparents: Pedro Romo de Rivar & Lorenza Ruis de
Esparza(married couple) IGI Film #0299422, p.4

NOTE: I have looked for other children of this marriage and can't seem to
locate more...not sure why,
because neither appear in the burials until 1677. Nor do I have any info on
Joseph's marriage, children, etc.

--------------------------------------

Ysabel Tiscareno (wife of Bernardo Dias)
buried 13 May 1720 IGI Film #0299856, p. 78

----------------------------------------
There appear to be 3 sisters, all daughters of Luis de los Reies and Juana
Tiscareno who each married 'Dias' men:

Luisa de los Reies m Antonio Dias - Aguas., Aguas., 1670
Isavel de los Reies m. Diego Dias - Aguas., Aguas., prior to 1675
Theresa de los Reies m. Francisco Dias - Aguas., Aguas., 1683

Although I have info on Diego's marriage, father's name isnot listed. But
both Antonio's and Francisco's parents are listed as Juan Diaz (Dias de
Lomas)and Angela de Merida (residents of the city of Zacatecas). Perhaps
these Dias men were related. I can't prove the link, but there might be one,
since several of this group's children were baptized by Pedro Romo de Vivar
and Lorenza Ruis de Esparsa.

I will continue working on this.

Thanks Helyn...I have seen the families you mentioned...and wondered what
the connection was...

I am thinking that Luis Herrera may still be connected....notice the family
names continue to be repeated...especially "Prudencia"..."Calletano",
"Luis"....through our lines....I am still hopeful we can confirm the suspected loop.
One thing I do know, they appeared to definitely come from the Rancho de las
Ranas...

Rancho de las Ranas

Arturo,
I can't be absolutely sure of course, but it looks like this may be a strong
connection to my family line. The "acta" that I have definitely states that
Pedro was from the Rancho de las Ranas, but I also have bumped into the fact
that he had been married at least (4) times. I am hoping that this is the
right tree line....

Isn't it amazing how small these ranchos were (based on the population)? I
bet these families were among the originals who settled in the area....

Speaking of ranchos, did you get the pictures I sent of an original rancho
from the Hernandez family whose origins were from Jalisco (El Nopal/Nopalito,
near Arandas)? I tried to upload them, but was not too successful, although
I was successful on uploading an old picture. The rancho was refurbished,
and is 150 years old. The man who refurbished it maintained the integrity of
it's original look. It really does prove a hint as to how people lived in
those days.

My New Genealogy File Uploaded

Hi, Everyone:

Well, I finally got it right. I updated my genealogy folder and uploaded
new files that contain descendancy charts for my Martin del Campo, Cabral,
and Robles ancestors in Jalisco. I have been making steady progress in
finding records for these families and finally got around to updating my
folder. Hope you have time to check it out.

[General] My Genealogy File

I have updated my genealogy file. However, I don't seem to be able to get
the new file into my file folder. I deleted the original one, then when I
tried to upload the new one, it would come out as a shortcut file, just
basically a little box with cryptic lettering in it. I don't know what I
did, but just to let you know I currently have no file in my folder, still
trying to figure out how to get the updated one on there.

WorldCat , and Sources for Interlibrary Loans and On-Line Research

Arturo,

Professionally, I have been doing technical, economic, and demographic
research for decades, - - - and genealogical for the last several years.

I am fortunate to be in Southern California, which has a multitude of
University libraries in the region, and have had access to all their
libraries, and also governmental (cities, counties, state and Federal
libraries), - - - and, over the years, have spent many, many hours per week
going from library to library hunting for and consulting those books that I
could find.

Now, a quick inquiry in www.worldcat.org lets me know which libraries
throughout the world have a book that I would wish to consult.

Already in my Internet "favorites" are the addresses of such places as the
central cataloguing for all the libraries in the University of California
System (10 campuses, plus its Digital Library, Bancroft, Melvyl, etc.) and,
similarly, State of California Universities, governmental libraries, etc.
Basically all of their holdings are available by interlibrary loans, by
"filling-in an order/request slip" and have them delivered to the closest
San Diego Library of my choice.

Additionally, in the County of San Diego we have a "San Diego Circuit"
consortium of 8 nearby University Libraries and 34 County Libraries whose
books can be ordered online and delivered for checkout at any nearby
Library of choice.

All of these are borrowings of the actual books but, as if this weren't
enough, the University of California has partnered since last year with
Google to digitize millions of its library books, and put them online (at
books.google.com ) for public use.

So, Arturo, are we living in bountiful times or not? We are becoming
capable of on-line tapping the "knowledge of the world." ... And then, we
add the gigantic digitizing (and indexing) project of the Mormon Church.

If I sound ecstatic, it is only because I am out of my mind !! And can you
imagine if these tools had been available when I was going through college,
or doing aerospace research some decades ago?

Best regards,

Efrain
San Diego, California

Help for areas of Mexico out of the Relm of Ranchos Group

I just wanted to let everyone know. that the group is Mexicanfhr and can be found at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mexicanfhr/ . So feel free to drop in and see there is anything that the group can offer, if you are researching outside of Jalisco, Zacatecas, or Aguascalientes.

Dear Primos, readers and friends:

Hope your summer is going well. It is wonderful to receive your
articles and hear of all your good community activities. Thank you for
sharing. Your stories inspire others.

Unfortunately, the issue of PBS documentary of WW II which excluded the
contributions of Latinos is not solved. Ken Burns attitude is reflected
in the fact that the DVD that he distributed to the media DID NOT
include the 2 Latino segments and one Native American segment that his
studio produced. For the latest update, go to www.DefendTheHonor.org.
Your comments and support are very welcomed.

Warm Regards, Mimi

Leonidas Pinedo

Hey Arturo!
I know you got help already on this, but i thought you might want to see the record, as well.

Let me know if you can view it (I hope)! I posted it here because I was thinking other people, like me, like to
look at old records, no matter who they belong to.

Is there anyone in the group who can do a Mexican Border Crossing record search for me and send me the underlying information and perhaps image for the following person:

LEONIDAS PINEDO

Thanks.
