Can someone point me in the right direction?
I'm helping a friend research his family. However, he seem to find no records for the following cathedral in Mexico City...The Cathedral del Senor del Santo Sepulcro. Is there a way to search Familysearch.org by church? Is there another resource I can utilize? Thankyou in advance.

Do we have a list of all the films that Jaime Holcombe contributed to familysearch.org? I have come across some, but I don't know if I've seen a comprehensive list.

Hello everyone,
I would like to hear your thoughts from those of you whose research has taken them beyond Zacatecas and Jalisco and into Spain. I am currently researching a couple of ancestor families, Velasco and Alvarez de Asturias, and exhausted PARES research. I came across what appear to be old manuscripts written from 1695 to late 1700’s. These books have a wealth of information in regards to family trees, but they sometimes contradict each other. For example, there may be entire generations mentioned in one book and not the other. Or the parent of the same individual is completely different from one text to the other. I don’t expect you guys to read the entire chapters because there is just too much info and difficult to follow without putting in time.
I guess my only question, how reliable are these old manuscripts as a source of information and research?
Here are some of the links to these books.

Could a forum member please help me read the parents names of Francisco Suarez de Ibarra. The names are about halfway down the first page. I can make out the mother "Juana Suarez" but I cannot read the father's name. Thank you!

In my research, I have encountered a baptism record that indicates a child (possibly my 3rd G-grandfather) was abandoned at the house of a woman in Guadalajara in 1781. The record provides the child's first and middle names but omits any mention of parents or even godparents. At some later time, the child would have been given a surname. Was this name assigned by the Church? Or, if the child's father eventually stepped up and acknowledged the child as his, how would the family name be established: by Church action or by civil action? Where (if anywhere) would such action be recorded? Thanks for any assistance you can provide with my request.
Hola prim@s,
Here’s my work on another family who used the Alcocer surname, appearing in Mexico near the end of the 16th century.
Brothers Alonso de Alcocer Belfelt and Juan de Colonia Belfelt were from Sevilla, Spain; from them would descend families who used the surnames Alcocer and Colonia, who lived in Mexico City, Penjamo Gto and in Patzcuaro Mich.
Alonso de Alcocer and Juan de Colonia were sons of Conrado Belfelt de Colonia and Leonor de Alcocer, of Sevilla. Leonor de Alcocer was said to descend from the “illustrious and noble house of Alcocer of Spain”; she was daughter of Alonso Sanchez de Jerez and Beatriz de Toledo, merchants, who lived on Calle de Catalanes in Sevilla. I don’t know which of them descends from the Alcocer, since I’ve done no work on that line. Maybe one of you has a lead?
Conrado Belfelt de Colonia was born in Cologne, Germany, so “Colonia” is a toponym (during his lifetime, native sevillanos would call him “el Flamenco,” thinking he was from Flanders). He was said to descend from the illustrious and noble house of “Belfelt” (also spelled “Berfelt” in some documents). I consulted with a Spanish cousin of mine, who lives in Germany, and who translates and transcribes texts and books between German and Spanish, and we think that “Belfelt” is an hispanization of “Welser” (usually spelt and pronounced “Belzer” and “Belzar,” in old Castilian texts). The Welser were a powerful family of bankers and merchants from Germany, active in Spain and its territories during the Hapsburg era. This would make sense, as Conrado Belfelt was a merchant - he sold nails and mercantile in his shop, located on Calle de Carpinteria, parish of San Salvador, in Sevilla. He was highly regarded in his community, lived in a very prominent house (with several servants), and was apparently the head of a German merchants guild; members used to “take off their hats,” when in his presence, underlining his noble pedigree. He was murdered while returning from a farm that he owned, his body found by the city walls of Sevilla. He might have died intestate, since their two sons migrated to Mexico. They also had a daughter named Beatriz or Ynes, who remained in Sevilla and who was married to a “fulano” Martinez.
The earliest documentation I’ve found for this family is Juan de Colonia’s 1578 petition to travel to Mexico (PARES/AGIS). His brother Alonso was already living there. In his petition, Juan includes a letter that his brother had written him, dated 10 Dec 1577; Alonso describes his arrival, and contracting “a chapetonada, which kills 1/3 of all those who arrive here from Spain.” From the sound of it, Alonso likely arrived a couple of months before he wrote his brother. He encourages Juan to join him and to try his luck, since “you have no father nor mother, and they left us with no inheritance.” My favorite part, is where he quotes a popular refrain: “Quien adelante no mira, atrás se halla”: “he who does not look ahead, will be left behind.” That really captures the spirit of these brave men and women!
On a side note, I also noticed Juan de Colonia’s address on the letter, and on a whim, I checked it out, to see where he was living: “la calle del atocha, casa de los fucares en madrid.” I absolutely got goosebumps! The Fucares - or “Fuggar,” “Fúcar” in Spanish - were another powerful family of bankers & merchants from Germany, with strong ties to the Emperor Carlos V. Their palace in Madrid no longer stands, but it was located on the corner of Calle Atocha and Calle de Fúcar (named for them) - just 2 blocks away from my current home in Madrid!!! I got chills, thinking that a possible ancestor of mine lived so near to me, 4 centuries ago!!!
Alonso de Alcocer and Juan de Colonia managed to establish themselves in Mexico; they had connections with viceroys Luis de Velasco, Gaspar de Zuñiga, and Diego Fernandez de Cordoba, all who awarded them land grants, governmental posts, and other favors. Alonso also received letters of recommendation from the Marquesa de Guadalcazar (Mariana Riederer von Paar, wife of Viceroy Diego Fernandez de Cordoba), her sister, la Condesa de Barajas (Maria Sidonia Riederer von Paar, Lady in Waiting for Queen Margarita de Austria) and la Duquesa de Valhermosa (Maria Luisa de Aragon y Wernstein), revealing strong ties with the Royal Court in Madrid - “la Madrid de las Austrias.” Notable is the fact that all three women were of German nobility - like Alonso & Juan.
Both Alonso de Alcocer and Juan de Colonia appear in Actos de Cabildo del Ayuntamiento de la Ciudad de Mexico in the early 1600’s; they were involved in tribute collection - Juan de Colonia served as “arrendatario de la sisa del vino” - the wine tax. This fits in with him living with and likely working for the Fucares in Madrid. Alonso was said to own some mills around Mexico City, as well as cattle haciendas in the province of Michoacan (likely, Penjamo, where his descendants would live. The Colonia’s of Patzuaro owned a hacienda in Valle de Taramequaro, Mich).
Here’s what I have on thee two branches:
ALCOCER - Mexico City & Penjamo
Alonso de Alcocer married Maria de Herrera Contreras on 29 Jan 1582; she was from Zacatecas, Zac; daughter of Gaspar Rodriguez de Contreras (of Pedroche, Cordoba) and Isabel Mendez de Herrera (of Zamora, Castilla y Leon). They had two children that I know of:
1. Juan de Alcocer, b. 10 Jul 1586, Mexico City.
2. Beatriz de Alcocer, b. 28 May 1590, Mexico City.
GENERATION II
Their son, Juan de Alcocer, was contador del Santo Oficio and later, tesorero de la Real Caja y de la Santa Cruzada. He married Guimar Davalos y Bocanegra, daughter of Diego de Bocanegra Cervantes y Villaseñor cc Maria de Verdugo y Avalos.
From them would descend the Alcocer y Bocanegra’s who lived in Penjamo:
1. Pedro de Alcocer y Bocanegra, b. 16 Jul 1637, Asuncion Sagrario Metropolitano, Central, DF, Mexico
2. Juan de Alcocer y Bocanegra, b. 16 Jul 1637, Asuncion Sagrario Metropolitano, Central, DF, Mexico
3. Teresa de Alcocer y Bocanegra, b. 23 Oct 1638, Asuncion Sagrario Metropolitano, Central, DF, Mexico
4. Capitan Jose Tomas de Alcocer y Bocanegra, b. 12 Mar 1641, Asuncion Sagrario Metropolitano, Central, DF, Mexico; m1. Antonia Redondo Bracamonte y Sandoval, im. 16 Jul 1660, Puruandiro, Mich, Mexico; m2. Anna Zurita y Leiba, im. 12 Mar 1662, Penjamo, Gto, Mexico.
5. Alonso de Alcocer y Bocanegra, b. 21 May 1644, Asuncion Sagrario Metropolitano, Central, DF, Mexico; m. Juana de Espindola y Lopez de Baena, im. 14 May 1671, Valladolid, Mich, Mexico.
COLONIA Y ALCOCER - Mexico City
Juan de Colonia was married to Mariana Muñoz de Herrera. I don’t know if she’s related to Maria de Herrera Contreras. They had five children that I know of:
1. Maria de Colonia Munoz, b. 25 Aug 1597, Asuncion Sagrario Metropolitano, Central, DF, Mexico.
2. Beatriz de Colonia Herrera, b. 22 Sep 1604, Asuncion Sagrario Metropolitano, Central, DF, Mexico.
3. Juan de Colonia Herrera, b. 04 Jun 1609, Asuncion Sagrario Metropolitano, Central, DF, Mexico.
4. Licenciado Fray Tomas de Alcocer, b. 13 Jan 1611, Asuncion Sagrario Metropolitano, Central, DF, Mexico.
5. Leonor de Alcocer, m. Francisco de Rebolledo Alfaro, Feb 1632, Asuncion Sagrario Metropolitano, Central, DF, Mexico.
FRANCISCO DE COLONIA - Patzcuaro, Mich.
Francisco de Colonia married Floriana de Velasco on 13 Jan 1624 in Patzcuaro, Mich. His parents aren’t named on the partida, but hers were Francisco de Ayala and Leonor Carvajal de Velasco; I’m brick-walled on Francisco de Ayala, but Leonor Carvajal de Velasco was daughter of Hernando Alexandre and Leonor Carvajal; Hernando Alexandre was son of Pedro Alexandre cc Ana Perez Navarro (early settlers in Michoacan), and Leonor Carvajal was daughter of Hernan Sanchez cc Maria Diaz. Like the Colonia Alcocer’s, the Alexandre were from the parish of San Salvador in Sevilla, Spain.
I still haven’t figured out whether Francisco de Colonia was son of Alonso de Alcocer or Juan de Colonia, but I’m confident that he is the son of one or the other. Juan de Colonia had a son named Licenciado Fray Tomas de Alcocer, who was racionero de la Catedral de Michoacan, and then vicar of Patzcuaro, where he died. A grandson of Francisco de Colonia, Bachiller Gaspar Rangel Peguero (son of Gaspar Peguero cc Josepha de Colonia), lived in the home of Fray Tomas, who he said was the uncle of his mother. On this basis, Ber Gaspar Rangel became capellan proprietario of the capellania founded by Fray Tomas. In another document, Leonor de Colonia, another daughter of Francisco de Colonia, identified Fray Tomas as her uncle. Both of these documents would imply that Francisco de Colonia was the brother of Fray Tomas de Alcocer, and therefore, a son of Juan de Colonia cc Mariana de Herrera, but the terms “uncle” & “nephew/niece” were used loosely during that era, and could also mean “offspring of a 1st-cousin,” so Francisco de Colonia could be a son of Alonso de Alcocer. I’m left with that quandary!
Francisco de Colonia and Floriana de Velasco had six children - one son, and five daughters. For the most part, their daughters used the maternal surname, Velasco. Their son, Juan de Colonia, had only one child - a daughter - so the Colonia surname became extinct in Michoacan. Floriana de Velasco died a widow and was buried 21 May 1674, in Patzcuaro.
The children of Francisco de Colonia and Floriana de Velasco are:
a) Beatríz de Velasco, m. Juan de Valladares. No known issue.
b) Nicolasa de Velasco. Doncella (Spinster). No known issue.
c) Josefa de Colonia y Velasco, d. 10 Sep 1682, Pátzcuaro, Mich; m. Gaspar Rangel Peguero y Perez de Gardea (of Aguascalientes), im. 04 Feb 1651, Pátzcuaro, Mich.
d) Juan de Colonia, m. Luisa Quintanilla de Velasco aka Luisa de Rangel, 16 Oct 1665, Chilchota, Mich. She was hija de la yglesia.
e) Leonor de Velasco, m. Capitán Antonio Romero Pisa y Pareja, 11 Mar 1669, Pátzcuaro, Mich.
f) María de Velasco y Colonia, m. Juan de Aguilera, 30 Sep 1681, Pátzcuaro, Mich.
I descend from the one daughter of Juan de Colonia cc Luisa Quintanilla: Ana de Colonia, who married Juan de Machuca Villareal (of San Felipe Gto), 26 Apr 1688, in Patzcuaro. They would migrate to Villa de Lagos, then to Ocotlan, and finally to Tala, Jalisco, where they probably died. They left offspring throughout Los Altos.
I hope some of you found this helpful!

Hello,
I'm looking for any information about Pedro Alvarez de Navia. He was a resident of Tlaltenango about 1640-1650. The only thing that I know is that he was the "nephew" of Francisca de Molina "su tia" (Tapia or Bobadillo) wife of Antonio Vela. Both were godparents in a baptism in Tlaltenango where the relationship was stated. I want to understand how he was related to Francisca
Thank you in advance

Hello,
Does anyone know where to find baptism records for San Matias, Pinos, Zacatecas between 1647-1680?.
Thanks
Happy hunting in 2020!

Hello everyone!
I am wondering what age range were the term parvulo in the XVII century? I thought it was toddlers but I've read on different books that it would include children as old as 7....
What do you think?
Hello,
New theory about the parents of Juan de la Torre (married to Juana de Gamboa)
I'm still working with land records. I'm submitting the following information:
This is the history of EL MESQUITE in Jerez Zacatecas. (documented)
1. Initially the land was purchased by Miguel Caldera 1592
2. Miguel Caldera trades the land with his son in law Juan de la Torre Valdes (married to Ysabel Caldera) 1596
3. Juan de la torre takes posession in 1630
4. Heirs of Juan de la torre take posession in 1644 (Sebastian, Pedro, Diego and Juana de Gamboa)
EXPLANATION:
It is clear that the first Juan de la Torre Valdes is the one married to Ysabel Caldera. In the document Juan de la Torre Valdes is refered as the "yerno" of Miguel Caldera.
Now the problem is the 34 years between the second document and the third document. It is clear that the one that takes posession in 1630 is Juan de la Torre Valdes (married to Juana de Gamboa), because on document fourth the heirs are the sons and wife of Juan de la Torre Valdes (married to Juana de Gamboa). The document doesnt explain why (or how) it took posession, but it was clearly a transfer. I believe that the reason is that JUAN DE LA TORRE VALDES (MARRIED TO JUANA DE GAMBOA) IS THE SON OF JUAN DE LA TORRE VALDES (MARRIED TO YSABEL CALDERA). This theory will explain the 34 years between the land exchange and when the second Juan de la Torre took possession. Another clue to me is that clearly the transfer wasn't a purchased (in the first purchased of the land by Miguel Caldera was even marked how much Caldera paid for the land)
SOURCES:
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSDL-69K6-B?i=110&cat=…
With this explanation my tree would look like (this is not my tree):

Hi,
I found a padron from 1861 when the municipal of Degollado was created.
I'm not sure how to attached a pdf file to this site. If someone can tell me how to attach it I can share it.
Thank you,
Esther
Sometimes in old documents when people referred to certain family relations, they didn’t meant them to be as present day.
Example: my son could be the son-in-law
Brother was used also for brother-in-law
Nieto or nieta could be used for grandchild or great-grandchild.
Several genealogies and researchers have had headaches when Encountering some of this terms.
Best regards

I believe that there is at least one Informaciones Matrimoniales that state that Petronila was Moctezuma?s granddaughter ? at least that is what memory serves. The million dollar question is who her parents were. Supposedly, Guillermo Tovar de Teresa had located proof of her parentage and supporting the theory that she was daughter of Diego Sotelo; unfortunately, he died before he was able to publish his findings. However, he did share his information with Mariano Gonz?lez-Leal so there is hope to getting our questions answered.

Hola todos, quisiera saber si alguien en el grupo esta haciendo genealogia de las familias Valdivia y Navarro de los Altos de Jalisco. Estoy un poco atorado y necesito saber si alguien puede ayudarme. La pareja que busco es Joseph Eleuterio Valdivia casado con Francisca Navarro. Tengo la fecha de su matrimonio y ya revise el documento, pero lamentablemente no mencionan a los padres de ninguno. No he podido encontrar al Inf Mat para ver si ahi los mencionan.
Seria posible que alguien me pueda dar una pista o informacion adicional? Se los agradeceria mucho.
Tambien, me gustaria saber si alguien pudo conseguir o tiene los libreo del Sr Mariano Gonzalez Leal (Retoños de España en Nueva Galicia Tomo 6 Vol 1, y Tomo 7 de la mas reciente edición)?
Saludos y gracias de antemano por cualquier información proporcionada.
FERNANDO OSÓREZ Maestro De Santiago
I had stopped at Fernando Osórez when posting this line:
1). Alfonso Fernandez Villaseñor and Elvira Osórez (daughter of Fernando Osórez maestro de Santiago)
2). Fernan A. Villaseñor and Aldonza Gutierrez de Tapia
3). Diego Villaseñor alcaide de Segovía married to Maria Serones (Seron)(Seronis)
4). Juan Villaseñor Serones and Elvira de Tovar y Enriquez de Castilla
5). Diego de Villaseñor-Tovar and Isabel Alfonso de Villaseñor
6). Diego Villaseñor-Tovar"de Burgos" (b.1442 and d.1520) and Guiomar de Orosco y Sandoval
7). Juan de Villaseñor-Tovar y Orosco (b.1500) and Catalina Cervantes y Lara de Andrada
But I now have more information from papal records. Fernando Osórez “fue hijo de un “caballero profeso de la dicha Orden y de una mujer suelta” they never married. It seems that Fernando Osórez spent much of his youth living with a maternal uncle, Gonzalo Mexia (Messia) Mexia and Messia were used interchangeably by this Family, Guillermo Tovar De Teresa was mistaken when he said that they did not use both spellings.) From other pieces of the puzzle the maternal grandfather is positively identified. The “mujer suelta was “Beatriz?” Mexia, daughter of Fernán Rodríguez Mexía (Messia)
Here are some of my notes on his parents and grandparents:
Fernando Osórez fue hijo de don “Osorio Perez, caballero desta Orden”
While researching the ancestors to my Nueva Galicia Villaseñor line I came across some interesting information that connects it to the ancestors of other founding families of Nueva Galicia.
31º. Maestro De Santiago Fernando Osórez is the illegitimate son of Osorio Perez and “Beatriz?” Mexia. Osorio refused to marry even though he was free to do so. Papal records allow Fernando Osórez the right to inherit since there was nothing blocking Osorio from getting married to Fernando’s mother. Fernando Osórez succeeded his uncle, 30th maestro De Santiago Gonzalo Mexia. It looks as Fernando Osórez is raised by the Mexia Family as he follows his maternal uncle as maestro De Santiago.
Paternal grandfather 22º maestre de Santiago Juan Ozores (u Osórez)
The maternal grandfather is comendador mayor de Leon Fernán Rodríguez Mexía.
An interesting fact is that both Pedro Fernandez De Hijar and comendador Sancho Sanchez are in records pertaining to Fernando Osorez. Pedro Fernandez De Hijar is named as a nephew to Fernando Osórez.
I have stories to go with the names in my book. I also provide more information regarding Diego Velasco De Temino’s ancestry. I have interesting pieces that when put together leads me to believe that there is a strong probability that I have discovered Alfonso Ruiz De Temino’s “Velasco” ancestry. I will present this information when I have more conclusive evidence.
The line with additions looks like this:
1). Juan Osórez
2). Osorio Perez and (Beatriz?) Mexia (daughter of Fernan Rodriguez Mexia ( also identified by other genealogist as also using the name Fernan Gonzalez Mexia) Fernan Rodriguez Mexia [Mesia] was comendador mayor de Leon.
3). Alfonso Fernandez Villaseñor and Elvira Osórez (daughter of Fernando Osórez maestro de Santiago)
4). Fernan A. Villaseñor and Aldonza Gutierrez de Tapia
5). Diego Villaseñor alcaide de Segovía married to Maria Serones (Seron)(Seronis)
6). Juan Villaseñor Serones and Elvira de Tovar y Enriquez de Castilla
7). Diego de Villaseñor-Tovar and Isabel Alfonso de Villaseñor
8). Diego Villaseñor-Tovar"de Burgos" (b.1442 and d.1520) and Guiomar de Orosco y Sandoval
9). Juan de Villaseñor-Tovar y Orosco (b.1500) and Catalina Cervantes y Lara de Andrada

Aside from Mexican civil and church records, what type of medical records would have been kept that would document a persons death, particularly when an epidemic struck? Are there such records available online? Available if I write a letter to some office/department in Mexico?
Gracias
Hi
I have DNA from the British Isles and I can see through other relatives who have taken the test that it comes from my paternal grandmother's family. Her father was a Cavazos and her mother was a Gracia, they lived in (close to) Monterrey.
Anyone else out there unexpectedly have British/Irish/Scottish genes? . My percentage is very small (2%) so timewise it must go way back, but its also there in my siblings (1-2%) and another relative two generations above me (Ireland/Scotland 6% and England/Wales/Northwestern Europe 5%) so I dont think its a mistake. My best guess is the slave market of Sevilla, where white slaves (often fishermen taken captive in the North Sea isles) were sold along with slaves from Africa. But maybe someone researching Cavazos or Gracia has come across an Anglo name?
Regards
Denise
I found a map in one of the tierras y aguas books that are available from familysearch.org, but unfortunately, whoever made the film didn't unfold the map to take pictures of it. it's really important for me to see that map unfolded, I have relatives in Guadalajara that might be able to go to the Fondo de Tierras y Aguas of the Archivo Histórico del Estado de Jalisco,and unfold the map and take pictures of it.
Is it possible to go there and see the actual documents?
Has anybody been there?
Hi
Has anyone heard of Don Pedro Pablo de Gavai?
He turns up as padrino to a mulatto slave (possible ancestor of mine!) in this record of baptism 1713 for Juan Antonio Joseph Altamira
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:9392-KW9K-LT?i=528&cc=18745…
I found this info on a pedro de de arana y gavai (espanol) bapt 1690 in Aguascalientes:
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HY-64V7-773?i=195&cc=1502…
Same guy?
How does his mother Francisca Gabai tie in with the other Gabais of Aguascalientes?

Hello fellow researchers
I'm waiting for my mtDNA results and while I wait I'm trying to see if I can get my maternal line back a little bit further.
The earliest mother's mother's mother I can document using Family Search films is Beatriz Delgado, Spanish, born about 1595. She's the mother of Francisca de Rodas and Catalina Ponce who married in Tlaltenango. Both daughters are in my direct line, but my maternal line goes back through Catalina.
1636 - Francisca de Rodas with Rodrigo de Castro (left side entry has the parents)
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:939N-BR9M-FN?i=47&wc=3PS7-7…
1648 - Catalina Ponce and Manuel de Viera
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:939N-BR1Y-P?i=101&cc=1804458
Apparently, Pedro Calderon Solano passed away and Beatriz remarried with Antonio de Castro. I've read the online Tlaltenango marriage film and found nothing else relating to them, unless I missed it due to the hard-to-read handwriting. I don't believe Beatriz and Antonio de Castro had children.
Before I knew she was my ancestor, and back when I had an Ancestry free trial, I saw several trees which had Antonio de Castro (father of Rodrigo) married to a BRIGIDA Delgado about 1624 or 1634. Her parents were said to be Luis Delgado and Ana Flores Rubin from Guadalajara. It's Ancestry, so all the info looked copied from other trees and there were no real sources that I remember. But I see in the gedcom Luis Delgado and JUANA Flroes from Guadalajara with a son Juan Delgado Flores married in the 1630s in Tlaltenango. I was wondering if the info about Brigida/Beatriz came from anyone here or if anyone knew anything about a Brigida or Beatriz or had any sources to point to about her parentage or anything else that might help.
I know there was a Beatriz Delgado married to Martin Gonzales a generation or so earlier, so this one probably fits in there somehow.
Thanks in advance for any help

I would like to verify with the group the different distinctions that come up when looking at a marriage dispensation.
Concerning the dispensation here:
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:9392-GR7B-JV?i=155&cc=18745…
It states: "El impedimento de afinidad licita en prmier grado igual"
I understand this to be a legal relationship in the first degree. Does this mean that the new bride is the sister of the deceased wife?
The charts here: https://ccoo1.webs.upv.es/Legislacion/Trabajo/Decreto_34_consanguinidad…, are mildly confusing and I would like to double check.
Based on other records, the deceased wife was 18 at the time of her death in 1886. The new wife is 32 in 1892, so there would have been an 8 year difference between the two women. Additionally, the old wife's parents are listed as Jesus Chavez and Antonia Ortega. The new wife's parents are Juan Jesus Chavez and Antonia Gutierrez. I don't want to jump to the conclusion just yet that Antonia is an Ortega Gutierrez/Gutierrez Ortega just yet, and I am looking for direction in the dispensation.
There appears to be a consensus that Luisa de Quesada y Mendoza and her sister Maria may be the legitimate daughters of Alonso de Quesada and Juana Bautista Hernandez de Arellano y Mendoza. That said, I've yet to locate one solid piece of evidence that confirms the relationship.
Given Luisa's surname it is easy to assume she is the daughter of Alonso and Juana. Although it certainly seems likely, I'm hoping someone has come across a new source document that confirms the relationship.
Thanks in advance to those that take time to look at this.
Hi All. I am wondering if any fellow member can help me with this. Looking at old Census (Padrones) of Juchipila and Moyahua, what do the following letters mean? They are placed after each ndividual's name. One or the other is placed, not all at once. It's my first time looking at these records. Thanks!

My 2nd Paternal Great Grandmother was Martina Huizar, who was married to Pascual Navarro, her parents I believe were Josef Anselmo Huizar and Dolores Perez. Anyone here have Huizar ancestors from La Venta Del Astillero, Zapopan, Tesistan, or Lagos De Moreno Jalisco? I'm having a hard time with finding more ancestors from side of my family.
I joined this group to find more information on the Macias family from Aguascalientes and Nochistlan. My Macias line starts with my Paternal Great Grandfather Higinio Zaldivar (Saldivar) Macias B: Jan 11, 1887 in Nochistlan Zacatecas and Died Feb 8, 1954 in D.F. His Mother was Maria Del Refugio Macias B: Abt 1863 in Nochistlan and she was married to my GG Grandfather Atanasio Saldivar Duran.
