This has been a question to me for a while. Although we are Mormon we still carry the tradition of Padrinoship. for instance mine are my grandfather and his 2nd wife. I have a question. can Padrinos be a brother and sister? Im trying to connect my Angela de Oropesa.

Daniel:

In Mexican Catholic tradition, padrinos need not necessarily be a married couple. They were often, as you mention, siblings, mother and son, brother and sister-in-law, etc. I have run across all sorts of different combinations both in my personal experience and in reading filmed records from centuries ago. When padrinos' relationship is other than husband and wife and it is explained in the record, such information can be as valuable as the information on the person whose record one is reading.

Rancho Los Aros (Haros) ties

History, Culture and General Discussion

I looking for anyone with ties to Rancho Los Aros (Haros). My grandmother, Antonia De Haro, was from there and her family - De Haro - have been there since the 1700's. I have some informaiton abt the families from their but would like to find someone else researchin that area.

Comentarios

Linnie:

The Haros were perhaps the first Spanish (well really mestizo) family to permanently settle in Tlaltenango. I imagine that the majority of Haros are descendants of Juan de Miramontes and Maria de Haro y Saucedo who lived in Tlaltenango in the late 1500s and early 1600s. Some children took the name Miramontes, some Haro and some Saucedo so all of these families come from the same root.

Are you talking about el Rancho de los Haros that was part of Tlaltenango or is there a different rancho by the same name in Jerez? The two towns are close to each other and on opposite ends of the same valley and were historically administered as one entity so families moved back and forth, up and down the valley.

If you do a search for Miramontes or Haro on the site you will find lots of background information about the early origins of this family. There are a great number of people in the group researching some branch or other of this family as I imagine that 99% of people from the Tlaltenango area are descendants of the family.

However, genealogy is about working back one generation at a time and documenting each link, so you should begin by prociding the group with the detailed information about your grandmother's date of birth, name of parents, name of spouse, etc. I am sure there are members here who can help you research her ancestors. Tlaltenango records are very good and mostly indexed.

Comentario

Arturo,

Apparently there are two Los Haros/ Los Aros. I got to visit the one in the district of Jerez in 2003. We went to the cemetery looking for family plots. Many of the people from El Durazno were buried there since it was closer than Jerez. While at the panteon Los Aros I found a family grave. I saw what looked like a nob and bent down and picked it up, much to my dismay it was a leg bone! That's when I was told that the graves were used for more than one person over a course of time, the bones from the previous burial were put to the foot of the grave and newly deceased person put in it's place. I reburied the leg bone in the grave, said a prayer for the ancestors and was more careful!

Linnie did contact me since I do have her family in my records from the district of Jerez. I have updated my files and put them on Rootsweb.com. Arturo, to update them on this site do I have to delete the present file or do you do that?

thanks for all your help, Linda in B.C.

To All,

I have been following recent discussions--particularly those related to the Herrera surname in Tlatenango--and would like to know if there had been?much migration from Tlaltenango to?Momax. My paternal grandmother was a Herrera, and while I'm sure the surname is common in this particular region the possibility of a connection between my grandmother's family and the Herreras being discussed is intriguing to me.

There need not be migration from Tlaltenango to Momax since Momax was basically one of the pueblos or ranchos of the Tlaltenango jurisdiccion and parrish until the late 1700s, just like Atolinga and Tepechitlan. If you look at a map you will notice that Momax is basically a stone's throw away from the present day city of Tlaltenango... even closer to some of the ranchos we have been discussing. Nowadays it is perhaps a 10 or 15 minute drive... back then it was perhaps a few hours horse ride or a half day's walk...

You should definitely try to find your grandmother's connection to this line. Do you have her birthdate and/or names of her parents?

Comentario

Tony,

What other surnames are you researching from Momax?

From my research the Ranch is North of Jerez on the road towards Fresnillo from Jerez into the mountains. All civil documents that were filed for Bith, Death and Marriage were filed in Jerez. I have not been there. However from a book listing Ranches from that area I understand that it is a working farm with a population of abt 800 plus. Several of the De Luna family still farm there. They married into the De Haro's and now live in St. Helena CA. but go back to harvest each year.
My mom had gone there several times. However she passed away before I was able to go on a trip there with her. I hope to go one day.
At the Main Family History Center in Salt Lake City The civil and church records are on micro film from Jerez and that is where I have gleened most of my information.
I have uploaded a GEDCOM file but I need to make to corrections.

I replied to Linnie personally but wanted to add one of the features of Los Haros/Los Aros is the cemetery/panteon. It's centrally located for many rancho's such as El Durazno, Los Rodartes, Santa Rita and others so many of those families buried in Los Haros instead of Jerez as my family did. It's a small town on flat land as most of the ranchos are. They have fields and orchards around them. Some have cattle ranch's since they still raise bulls, I think for the bull fights since they seemed to be very agressive even when very young. Good roads much history still there.

I ran across an old posting (22 Feb 2006) regarding the search for the surname Boronda in Jerez. I lived in Monterey County for most of my life having been born in Salinas and am somewhat familiar with early California history there. The Boronda family were early California settlers from Jerez, Zacatecas. They are incorrectly listed by one local historical account as being from Jerez, Spain. There is a reasonably maintained adobe house called the Boronda Adobe once owned by the last family member Eusebio on the outskirts of Salinas, California aptly called the Boronda district. The family once owned a good sized land parcel there. You can find information online in the early California-Monterey County historical accounts.

The census does not record the castes of the people it lists. It does seperate out the "barrios y pueblos" de naturales or indios from the rest, however. So basically, it begins with a listing of the espanoles, mulatos, mestizos in the town of Tlaltenango itself, then goes through each of the non-indio ranchos and then begins with the barrios de indios in the town of Tlaltenango and finally goes into each of the pueblos de indios that were part of the jurisdiccion, such as Tocatic, Cicacalco, Teocaltiche, etc.

In the non-indio part of the census, there are a number of people described as "esclavos" which I am presuming were mulatos or negros, however for the remainder there is no way to tell whether they were espanoles, mestizos, lobos, etc. There are also no ages, but there is some letter coding system that I have yet to figure out. However, I am guessing that it shows those who are adults vs. those who aren't as some people are not included in the "count".

I have uploaded one of the Ranchos de las Ranas page to the Albums section of the site:

Thanks for the extracted information of the 1754 Census. Pedro Bugarin and Maria Josepha Gonsales are my fifth great-grandparents. I recently found that they had "cuates" or fraternal twins Joseph Dionisio and Francisco Dionisio both born in Las Ranas 8 Apr 1747 but baptized in Tepechitlan on 23 Apr 1747. I am related to Joseph Dionisio who married Maria Gavriela de Luna whose daughter Maria Antonia Marcial de Luna (born 30 Jun 1789 in Las Ranas) married Jose Luis Lufano Sandoval on 07 Jan 1804 in Atolinga. They had at least eight children one of them being Jose Teodoro Bugarin Sandoval (born in Las Ranas 03 Oct 1820) who married Juliana Miramontes Flores (from Rancho las Ranas) on 18 Sep 1844 in Atolinga. I actually have an old picture of Jose Teodoro given to me by my late cousin, Amador Rodriguez Sandoval who died last year and was a well known history buff in Tlaltenango.

What I can't figure out is why neither Joseph Dionisio or Francisco Dionisio appear on this census? Do you have any ideas?

Thanks again,

Gus Meza

Comentario

Gus:

If you are descended from Pedro Bugarin and Maria Josepha Gonzalez, that would make us cousins. You would also be cousin with a few other people in the group descended from the same couple.

As for the cuates not appearing on the census, I imagine that perhaps small children were not listed. It is a shame, because the reason why I took on the project was to try to locate Joseph Ramon Aranzazu, my direct paternal ancestor born around 1750 supposedly in Tlaltenango, but he does not appear in the census either.

Comentario

Gus & Arturo, Hello Distant Cousins, we certainly have common ancestors.
Gus, when I was in Tlaltenango, about two years ago, a cousin in town recommended that I visit with his friend, Professor Amador Rodriguez Sandoval, which I did. Professor Rodriguez was so delighted that we were there to see him, and happy to share some of his vast knowledge.

We were all spellbound by this extraordinary person, he did not want us to leave, but he was frail, and we did not want him to overextend himself. As I got up to leave, Professor Rodriguez held my hand, and had me promise that I would send him a hearing aid.

Shortly thereafter, Arturo so generously took the hearing device for me on his trip to Tlaltenango. Sadly, Professor Rodriguez had passed on between our trips.

Gus, hopefully, you will post the photo of Jose Teodoro. What is the Bugarin connection to Professor Rodriguez ?

I also noticed, that not all of Pedro Bugarin's children, born prior to 1754 were not listed in the census.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

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.

Comentario

Esperanza:

The two ranchos appear right after each other. Often times the definition of ranchos is fluid, in the sense that they would basically be a group of houses built by families who had farmland or grazing land nearby. The fact that Ranchos de la Ranas had such few inhabitants in this census and then became an important rancho in later years leads me to believe that it "absorbed" nearby ranchos... perhaps that of los Loera. I would suspect that the families that lived in the two Ranchos were related.

I am wondering if Pedro de Herrera, su hijo is the same Pedro Prudencio de
Herrera who married in 1757 to Nicolaza Paula de Estrada SanMartin....although,
I have down that he was previously married to Ana Arrellano...but all this
is still possible, in lieu of the dates (1754...1757)

Another tidbit that I picked up is that Pedro Prudencio de Marin de Errera's
father might have been "Luis Marin de Errera...who would have married Maria
Roza Serano around 1757 as well (probably one of the many wives).

Back to the drawing board....
Thanks Arturo.....

These sound like films I MUST order. I had never thought to order films
from Esparza. I found some family members in the Pamplona parish
registers when I researched at the Archbishop's archives in
Pamplona...not in the cathedral's books, but in a smaller parish further
out. But I never spent enough time there to actually find Lope. Perhaps
his baptismal is in these Esparza films.

Hello, Connie! Thanks for your Time. If you could look this up for the
Calvillo films, Id appreciate it alot! Although I dont think Mateo might be
there, but just to make sure. I think he might be on the next film after
yours since the year 1847 splits maybe?
Mateo Rodriguez de Velasco 22 Oct 1847
Petra Basquez de Esparza 2 Feb 1845

I would also like if you could look up Nicolas Diaz de Tiscareno from your
Aguas Film.

Thanks A Lot! -If you ever need anything let me know. P.S. The Tiscarenos
you sent me are related! -Daniel Mendez del Camino

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

Daniel,

I'm sorry I haven't written. I have looked for the Dias de Tiscareno
group and haven't found as much as I would've liked. However, I did
find a few items that I will try to send out tonight when I get home.
I can't remember what led me to think that someone else other than the
person you mentioned was the originator of that line, but there was
something, somewhere. I know that's silly, but I've got that gut
feeling that I once saw evidence leading me to someone else. It's
irritating, though, because I've been away from it so long that I
can't remember the lines clearly and I have so much data that's just
running around loose!

Regarding films... I've got 0299421, 0299422, 0299423, 02998??
(marriages), 0299856 (burials) and a few more I can't remember off
hand. I will also check when I get home and send the complete list to
all.

Connie

Arturo,

For Coahuila, please add the following municipalities- Saltillo, General Cepeda, Allende, Nava,
Ramos Arispe

For Nuevo Leon add Monterrey, Guadalupe, Villaldama, Lampazos, Vallecillo, Cadereyta

Esther:

I have added all of the municipalities that you requested. I added one film for Vallecillo in Nuevo Leon so that state will show up on the state listing. The other states were already there because there were films listed for them already.

Let me know if you have any further questions regarding this. Thank you for taking the time to add to the database.

Esther,

For Jalisco, Zacatecas and Aguascalientes, all of the municipalities are already in the database. If the municipality does not show up on the list when you click on a state that means that there are no films for that municipality in the database yet. If you want to add the first film for a municipality, select the name of the municipality from the menu on the bottom of the page (below the list of municipalities for which there are already films).

If you would like to add a municipality for a state not in our region, let me know which municipality and I can add it manually to the database.

Dear Lavaniya:
The LDS has some of its film records extracted and put into search capable databases. In other words, you can click on the links in the film section and be taken to the LDS database for this film. You can then put your ancestor's name in the search and hit enter or you can just hit enter and you will be able to scroll through the records to see if any of your ancestors are on this film (click the next button at the bottom of each page to get to the next page). Sometimes it is better to scroll through as various spellings sometimes makes it impossible to match a name. For instance I was putting in Geronima Ledesma and getting no results because within the LDS record the name was Jeronima DeLedesma.

Without this link you must use trial and error trying to figure out which of the microfilms for a particular area have been put into the online databases. The LDS has many records in their search databases, but not all of their microfilms have been completed. The films section lets us know exactly which ones are in the database. I actually did the trial and error method before I stumbled on this site! I would guess the next batch number by using consecutive numbers. This works sometimes, but other times there are gaps.

So with this in mind, do not think the LDS does not have records you are looking for if you do not find a match on their site. Only a small fraction of their information is on the database. It sometimes may be necessary to go to their library catalog and search on an area, for example San Miguel or Valle de Guadalupe to find out all the microfilms available.

Once again thank you and thank goodness for the films section on this site!!!

Well, that's sounds just great! If only I can figure out how to use it... So, how do I get into the database to search through the film? I clicked on films, then the region (Jalisco), then Mascota and 3 films showed up. I clicked on the film and it only gave me a choice to edit or submit a film. Maybe I'm in the wrong place? I really appreciate your help!

Do not click the actual film number, click the box next to the number called IGI.

I was mistaken though. It does not allow you to search by name, only to scroll through.

However if you know the film number and batch number, then you can go into a search, replace the film number and batch number to the one you want and be able to search by name.

> Could anyone please explain to me the purpose of the film info on the site?

Are you referring to the list which shows which list members have films on permanent loan at their local LDS Family History Centers?

I assumed it was so list members could ask someone to look up information. I'm certainly willing to do that with the films to which I have access. The extracted records do not include all the data found on the microfilmed records.

WorldCat and Interlibrary Loan

Has anyone used WorldCat (http://www.worldcat.org) to locate hard-to-find materials and then requested them by interlibrary loan?

Actually, I'm doing that right now. My Spanish governor wrote some letters that are on microfilm at UC Berkeley. It's in the queue, but I'm not sure how successful I'll be. On the other hand, years ago I needed a set of books that were in Virginia, and I had no problem with that request. On another occasion, I could only use the rare book in the library, and I do know that sometimes the lending institutions require payment for lending books and materials that are rare in nature.

Recently, someone from the Ranchos group, emailed asking about the group that I have for all of Mexico. I just wanted to let everyone know. that the group is Mexicanfhr and can be found at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mexicanfhr/ .
