just wanting to keep people in the loop for possible cooperation with
the Colotlan Yahoo Group. Boy does my Spanish leave a lot to be desired:

Respecto a tu pregunta…

La Radio Universidad de Colotlán retransmite (vía Internet) desde hace dos
años la programación de Radio Universidad de Guadalajara, es decir no
contaba con un equipo de trabajo que pudiera producir y transmitir programas
locales. Actualmente estamos (estudiantes del Cunorte y yo) produciendo el
primer programa local… es un programa cultural que arrancó ayer, 6 de
octubre, con un programa dedicado a la Peregrinación de la Virgen del
Rosario a Santiago. Todavía no contamos con un servidor que nos permita
retransmitir desde colotlán vía Internet (para que nos puedas escuchar en
Carolina) sin embargo es una prioridades en esta etapa de arranque. Con
decirte que la estación esta incomunicada y todavía no cuenta con teléfono

Just a reminder that when you send a message to the list that has nothing to
do with the purpose of the list, it's nice to precede the subject line with
OT (off topic).

Secondly, I usually check everything I receive before I forward it to see
whether is may be a hoax. Most of them usually are. The information about
cell phone telemarketers is somewhat mixed:

I'm passing this along, in the event you were unaware, as I was!


Subject: Cell Phone Telemarketers


FYI....

JUST A REMINDER... 31 days from today, cell phone numbers are being 
released to telemarketing companies and you will start to receive 
sales calls. YOU WILL BE CHARGED FOR THESE CALLS...

To prevent this, call the following number from your cell phone:
888-382-1222. It is the national DO NOT CALL list. It will only
take a minute of your time. It blocks your number for five (5) years.


OR you may go online to register your home and/or cell phone at: 
www.donotcall.gov .

Joseph,

Me puedes mandar los detailes, de lo que quieres.

Here are some podcast sites, that are about genealogy:

Dear Myrtle Family History Hour (posted every Tuesday):
http://dearmyrtle.com/

The Genealogy Guys Podcast (posted every Sunday):
http://www.genealogyguys.com/

Nuestra Familia Unida:
http://nuestrafamiliaunida.com/

For those of you, that are new to podcasting. A podcast is a audio
program, that is put on the internet, for people to download and
listen to, at their own leisure.

Also, for those of you, who are using a dialup internet connection.
Remember when you click on the podcst button, to listen to the
podcast. Remember, that podcast has to download. Usually, the
podcast are aleast 10 megabytes in size. So it will take time to
download.

I have listened to all the podcasts, that are on each of the above
site, and I have really enjoyed all of them, and I have learned
something new, from each podcast.

Jonathan

here is the new location and website for the Nuestra Familia Unida
podcast project:

http://NuestraFamiliaUnida.com
[it's a work in progress]

consider joining this group to be notified of new content:
NuestraFamiliaUnida-subscribe@yahoogroups.com

As an aside, I would like to say that the NARA Symposium was great, 
particularly the sessions with George Ryskamp.  I also enjoyed meeting 
you Joseph and Natalie.

There was not much of a turnout but I hope they continue to do these 
symposia...  Next year we have to help them publicize the event a bit 
more.

I've got a new podcast online from the Hispanic Family History Symposium
this past weekend at NARA in DC. It is not actually part of the
Symposium but a personal interview I conducted immediately after the
Symposium.

the location is: http://NuestrosRanchos.libsyn.com

I hope to have 5 more presentations from that Symposium online in the
next week or two.

And finally one more piece of information...

The church where your ancestors and relatives were baptized was 
probablt the Vicaria de Nuestra Senora de Dolores de Abrego, which is 
part of the parrish of Fresnillo...

I think this is your grandfather and your great-grandmother,

Jerez, Zacatecas.

Victor:

Was your grandfather's mother's last name Ayala?  If so this may be a 
good start for your search from the IGI database.  You can try 
looking up one of these baptismal records and see if the grandparent 
names match.  No luck on finding Rancho San Justo, but the resource 
you are referencing is available online:

Hi Ranchos Group Members,

I am Michael Gonzales and have a strong interest in the Gonzales, 
Ayala, Calleros and Lucero lines in Zacatecas, Mexico on my
father's side and the Ayala, Zamora, Ortiz and Moreno lines in 
Michoacan, Mexico on my mother's side.  I was born in California
and 
am a transplant to Texas.  Most of my family is still in California, 
up and down the coast.

I mainly use the LDS Family History Centers and the INS non-
statistical records for Mexican border crossings in the 1912-20 
timeframes.  I also us the US Census records for family 
identifications in the 1920-30 period.

I am trying to find my paternal grandfather's birth or baptismal 
records (Ramon Gonzales-31 August 1891).  I have birth registrations 
for two of his brothers (Francisco and Julian) who were born in 
Rancho San Justo, Zacatecas, Mex, but nothing yet on my Paternal 
grandfather, Ramon.  I have not yet tried to look up records on my 
great grandfather Victor Gonzales or my great grandmother

Hi Mickey,

There's a small river in Guachinango, Jalisco by that name:

local.gob.mx/work/templates/enciclo/jalisco/mpios/14038a.htm

There's also another river in Coahuila:

Emilie,

Thanks for your concern.  I do live in Mexico's east coast near the
Texas border but about 100 miles inland from the Gulf.  Although we're
not in Rita's direct path we're watching closely where it is going.  I
too have some relatives in Houston who have had to evacuate to safer
places.  Hopefully there won't be any loss of human lives this time.

Saludos!
Victor Villarreal
Reynosa, Mexico

library are out of harm's way.  I have a cousin in League City
(between Galveston and Houston) that has evacuated to either
Huntsville, Tx or Nacogdoches, TX.  We pray for them all, and hope
they can salvage something of their possessions if they get hit hard
by Rita.
