Maria Marquez of Mezquitic, Jalisco

Hi everyone, my name is Ruben Marquez and I am currently researching my grandma. I am an amateur I assure you, I seriously cant find any information about her, her kids and where they where at at the turn of the 20th century. The only thing I have found was a birth/death certificate from my Uncle where it states her name and her first husbands name Jesus Montes. The bad part is that it only states 1924 and the birth place of Mezquital, Jalisco, Mexico. The information that I have is bellow. If anyone has found any information during your research and would like to share it would be deeply appreciated! Thanks

Ruben Marquez

El Morisco (a)

Today I was researching my Lizarraga line, and I discovered an interesting entry for my paternal 4th Great Grandfather, Salvador de Lizarraga, married to Maria Rosa de Herrera Anzaldo, on 20 Oct 1748

Hello Paul,

In this case El Morisco is the name of ranch. It isn't a classification.

Thank you, Armando. Can you direct me to literature that will tell me more
about this particular ranch? It sounds intriguing.

Hello Paul, I don't have knowledge of the ranch I was going by what you told
us was on the marriage record and what is common on them. I did try and
search for it but I never found anything about it. Many ranches have changed
names over the years so that may be the reason.

Gutierrada

Hola Mike, los felicito por la reunion familiar, nunca pense que se juntaran tantos, 1500 personas es un record.

Ruben, gracias

Para las personas de Nuestros Ranchos.

La Reunion de "La Gutierrada" son los descendientes de Jose Sotero Gutierrez Perez nacido Abril 22, 1853 en Los Portales y Maria de Jesus Romo Perez nacida cerca de 1864 . Ellos vivieron en el rancho de "La Escondida", cercas de Jalos, Jalisco. Ellos fueron casados Octubre 27, 1880 en Jalos. Sus 11 hijos nacieron entre 1883 a 1911.

Esta fue la tercer reunion normalmente hecha en el primer o segundo Sabado de Agosto
.
La reunion fue en Aguascalientes en el rancho "El Chaparral" La reunion fue muy bien organizada por la familia del sexto hijo de Sotero (Enrique de San Buenaventura Gutierrez Romo) nota. Los descendientes de cada hijo se turnean a patrocinar la fiesta cada año.
Cada año parece mejorar el numero de personas. Este fue mi primer año y quede impresionado de ver cercas de 1500 personas, y todas parientes.
El amor de nuestra cultura por diversa y rica de historia es la razon que personas como tu y yo, y pienso que todas las personas que usan Nuestros Ranchos nos motivamos a querer saber un poquito mas.

Me gustaria saber cuantos otros apellidos se juntan y donde.

Feligrecía de Villita

Has anyone heard of this place - Feligresía de Villita? (Ags marriage
record dated 1874, birthplace of spouse). From context I presume it
was in Aguascalientes, Zacatecas, or Jalisco.

Comments

Comment

(sorry for my poor english)

Since the 19th century to mid 20th century La Villa de Nuestra Senora de la Encarnacion, now called City of Encarnacion de Diaz, was popularly named La Villita, nickname changed to "La Chona" used today.

Encarnacion de Diaz, is located about 40 km (25 milles) south of Aguascalientes, centered between San Juan de los Lagos, Lagos de Moreno and Aguascalientes

This "Villita" has been parish, since 1778, therefore has had own parishioners
"feligresía". I Think the others "Villitas" belong, or are part of other parishioners, don`t have a own.

There is a villita en the jursidicton between Calvillo, Ags and
Tabasco, Zac all pueblos close to each other, thats the famous
Villita. The other villitas I havent heard of much.

Strategy

Group Help on Methodology Required,
I need to know the correct methodology because for the first time I'm researching surnames that are plentiful:  Sepulveda and Morales.  And to complicate thing

Comments

Comment

I failed to mention this other good suspect and why I think his full name could have been Joseph Gregorio:
 a Josef Gregorio Sepulbeda and Manuela Morales had two children in 1774 and 1776 in Texmelucan, Puebla.  I checked the batch number there, and they are the only Sepubeda's that come up.  Thanks again,  Alice

A quick look at the batch numbers for Hidalgo during the period in question
does not show any other Sepulvedas (Morales, yes, but not Ma Manuela), but
I'm not clear if I'm looking at records for Indios or Castas, as they seem
to be distinct records.  I think it would be worth taking a look at the
"Informacion Matrimonial" records, not just the matrimonial ones, to search
for more information.  Do you know whether they would have been classifies
as Indios or Castas?
Good luck.

I don't know if an index exists for "informacion matrimonial" films. Maybe
someone else does? I'm surprised that the mg film does not indicate where
she or her parents originated. If you are stuck, you may want to request
the one for that period and take a look, just in case there is something
there. Remember to look at the period before the mg occurred. I haven't
successfully accessed one but you may have more luck.

Thanks, Raquel.  I've found what I needed--the Family History Library Catalog and an informaciones matrimonial film for 1792-1794 Dolores Hidalgo, GTO.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Ma Luisa's father is referred to as Joseph Gregorio Sepulbeda.  Thanks again,  Alice

Hello Raquel,
The marriage entry of the daughter Maria Luisa Sepulbeda indicates she's an espanola and the groom, Juan Fermin Santelices, is an espanol from Santander, Spain.  So, I can only guess that her parents were espanoles.  
There's a Ma Manuela Morales married Joseph Sepulveda
            12/07/1774 Snta Barbara, Snta Barbara,Chihuahua
It's tempting, because the time is right, and his full name could have been Joseph Gregorio Sepulveda.  But that marriage entry says Joseph Sepulbeda and there is no "informacion matrimonial" listed for that time period.  So again, only speculation. 
 
Where can I find an index to check if "informacion matrimonial" exists for the daughter, Ma Luisa's, marriage for 1793 Dolores Hidalgo, GTO?  Maybe there her father is entered as Joseph or Joseph Gregorio.
That's the only thing I can come up with at this time.   Thanks again for your help,   Alice

Alice, I am unclear as whether you have looked at the film to see the mg
data. Names are too similar and too often repeated within families to make
any assumptions. But the entry may tell you where each was from and
sometimes notes the ages of the marrying individuals. I would begin there.

In reply to by RaquelRuiz

Comment

Raquel,
You're right about too many exact names at the same time. 
The other problem is that the same names are not used consistently.
My 5grandmother Ma Luisa Sepulbeda's marriage entry of 02/27/1793, Hidalgo, GTO, names her parents as Gregorio Sepulbeda and Maria Manuela Morales.
I can't find her parents' marriage entry under those exact names, and I can't find Ma Luisa's baptismal entry to check for another name variation for Gregorio.  So if I start searching the Juan, Jose, or Manuel Gregorio Sepulbeda's, how will I if I've got the right one?
What strategy would you advise?   Thanks for your help,   Alice

Haciendas of Zacatecas

Off the top of my head, I am looking for the parents of my ggggrandmother,
Urzina Hernandez.

Hi Christopher, what areas of Zacatecas are we dealing with here?
My family los Perez de Camino owned about 7 haciendas in Zacatecas, mostly
the northern part, according to research Im getting through now. Though
they did not reside there, they mostly lived in Mexico city. This was in
the 1700s and early 1800s for these haciendas. They held lands n Puebla,
Mexico City, Jalisco, Aguascalientes, San Luis Potosi and Guanajuato.

I just checked our records and it appears my family did own
El Maguey, one of the many haciendas owned in Zacatecas.
I believe we then sold it to los Sanchez de Tagle, close relatives
of ours. I never got to know how they acquired all this land but
I figure the marriages were key. Manuel Silvestre PErez de Camino,
was Governor of Nueva Vizcaya, he had land in Northern MExico,
Puebla, Guanajuato and Mexico City, Zacatecas
Chihuahua, other parts, he married Josepha de Arguelles y Miranda
sole heir to the mayorazgo of her father Juan de Arguelles he held
many lands in Queretaro, San Luis Potosi some in Mexico City. He had married
Antonia Sanchez de Tagle who was given land for her dowry and had also
purchased and inherited some land when her parents died, Marqueses
de Altamira. Also Manuel Silvestre Perez de Camino was given many mercedes
by the king and viceroy for his service. He was later given land in Puebla
he later purchased several haciendas in Jalisco. He owned an extensive hacienda
de Cienega, not to be confused with our relatves' Cienega de MAta of the Rincon
Gallardo family.

Daniel

Thanks for sending that Saldivar report. I will let you know what I find, once I get in touch with my aunt.

As for Camino or Perez del Camino, how are these the same? Where/when did they drop the Perez part of del Camino if they are the same families?

We know they didn't own La Hacienda de La Luz and surrounding Haciendas right? One of my aunts still have "escrituras" where it says the original owner of her home was (wich is one part of La Hacienda when they split it up) Manuel Escobedo. This was confirmed by the current owner(owns La Casa Grande part)

If recall correctly, I think he said they sold it to "Diaz de Leon" family in the early 1900's. A few years back one of their descendants came down to see if he could purchase the whole Hacienda or at least "La Casa Grande"...obviously they refused.

The family there now bought the whole Hacienda after the Diaz de Leon had to leave for almost nothing, but made sure their most important people had a place to stay. My Great Grandparents (Maternal/Paternal) Manuel Camino de Soto (Capataz/Carpenter)and Romulo Renteria Garcia (Capataz)were too loyal to them that they refused to accept any part of the Hacienda. In a way they got forced to accept because the Hacendado had to sell or give up the Hacienda, and basically told them to take advantage or the locals were. I'm assuming it was in The Revolution years. My great grandfather Manuel Camino de Soto already had a home in Tabasco, so he didn't care much if he stayed or not.

Have you researched the Escobedo and the Diaz de Leon families and their ties to these Haciendas? I would love to be linked to Caminos that owned the 7 Haciendas don't get me wrong, but let's find that link so we can all benefit from bragging about it...LOL!

Thanks,

Victor Renteria

Comment

Yes! They are the same, Perez de Camino and Camino, apprarently the history of the family is
very interesting. I can send the stuff I have on them. But we come from Manuel Silvestre Perez
de Camino who married into the House of Altamira. These early Caminos didnt really have a
"home", per se they did live in Mexico City in the 1700s but they had haciendas everywhere.
Their estates ranged from Queretaro, Mexico, Puebla, Jalisco, Guanajuato, Zacatecas,
Chihuahua, Nuevo Leon. Several books, articles and reports have been published on
don Manuel Silvestre, its funny Manuel is totally a family name that repeats almost every generation.
Im surprised no one has really wrote an extensive book on the mayorazgo of the Caminos, I know
this topic always sparks the Rincon Gallardo and their massive estate but the Camino also had a huge one.
He was a caballero de la Orden de Santiago, Governor of la Nueva Vizcaya, Royal Tresurer of New Spain,
he did had a coat of arms and did have a "probanza de nobleza" I have copies of all this stuff that I can
send. We need to meet one day and just sit down there is so much info. I havent really tallied the number
of haciendas, estancias, puestos etc they owned I so far have reasearched the "big" 7 ones that includes
the El Maguey in Zacatecas, someone in the group asked about it. It was given to the Caminos by real decrato.
I have a copy of that too.

Yup, we did not own La Luz, but as you said we did start purchasing parcels of lands, I know my
great grandparents and his father Celso Camino,Manuel's brother bought some, and also my great
grandma and her parents bought lots too. Her father Eugenio Camino de Soto, Celso and Manuel's
brother, (I am Camino twice, your like three
times I assume) worked in the mining operations and was a owner of something in Guadalajara,
he did strike plata and brought back some money, I assume this is how he bought the land in La Luz,
since it was around the same time. I am a descendant of the Diaz de Leon family, many of us on Ranchos
are, they were like many influential in Aguascalientes and Pinos, they eventually spilled into southern
Zacatecas and Jalisco. Thats funny you mentioned Tabasco, my Celso and Eugenio also had homes in
Tabasco, I wonder if it was a vacation home? Because otherwise why would they have all these homes?
my great grandma's parents had a house in Guadalajara, Tabasco and of course in La Luz.

In a way they got forced to accept because the Hacendado had to sell or give up the Hacienda, and basically told them to take advantage or the locals were. I'm assuming it was in The Revolution years. My great grandfather Manuel Camino de Soto already had a home in Tabasco, so he didn't care much if he stayed or not.

I think that is one other thing you promised to send about the Camino history. Please send it as soon as you can. I've seen alot of Perez del Camino in my searches than just Camino...can you also send me where we dropped off Perez?

What are the Diaz de Leon linked to all of Ranchos? Through the Garcias?

I don't know how many times I'm a Camino, but my parents are both Caminos how can I tell? I'm still new to this Daniel...lol.

Victor Renteria

Comment

Oh thats right we also connect on our Garcia de Leon sides they our Garcia descended from the Diaz de Leon, several times.
Perez, not all dropped it but members of the family started to drop it around the time of the independence. Some
used interchangeably Perez de Camino, Camino, Perez Camino, there were other Caminos, not sure if related but
there were Rodriguez Camino and Gonzalez Camino in the 1700s so who knows maybe down the line. Those names
were compounded so. Hmmm...I dont have to much time to gather all the Camino stuff, Id have to do piece by piece
at a time, even im still gathering stuff together. So I cant make promises as to the date Id send EVERYTHING in copy.
I think your Camino three times and your kids are like Camino 5 times, ha ha.

I have found that a lot of the tesoreros were conversos or descendent of conversos. Do you have any info on whether the perez del camino were descendents of conversos?
I have found other members of my family that were in the order of Santiago that had a great grandparent that was of Jewish origin (Ha Levi family)so that so you called de familias Cristianos viejos and be 1-8 jewish.

I have only gone back to about 1475 with the conquistadores on my direct line so I
would not know. They did have two sets of coat of arms. They came from Cantabria
and Asturias. I actually believe they are of italian descent prior to coming to spain
at least thats what my research is pointing towards. don Manuel Silvestre en his probanza
de nobleza list up to four generations of his family tree he was born 1697 so it took me
back to 1600 which was of big help. He was peninsular and became the governor of nueva vizacaya
in 1739. So these guys were constantly moving because of his jobs and haciendas. His gradkids
(my line) eventually settled near Pinos and Fresnillo eventuALLY MAKING THEIR WAY TO
aGUASCALIENTES.

I have actual pictures of the Jalos 1679 Padrón that I took while I was visiting the Guadalajara Arzobispado a few weeks ago. If you're interested please email me.

I also have other Padrones from 1650, 1670, 1672, 1679....al the way to 1846. Someday I will eventually upload them for all of nuestros ranchos to see. The files will be pdf but they are fairly large. I will need special permission to upload from the moderators.

Thanks Claudia, now if there was a census for 1920's Jalisco, I would be exuberant! Can't trace my genealogy line further than that!

But thank you again.

Hello Claudia,
Thanks for the census entry.  I'm sure many will find it useful, at the very least an interesting window into the past.
You're right about that's the way it was.  Still, I can't help but cringe when I realize how prevelant it was.   Recently I came across a defuncto entry where the priest entered "dominga, mi esclava".   I had no idea priests had slaves.  I saw many criada/o entries, so don't know why he didn't choose that route.   Thanks again,  Alice

Hi all -

I have adding the census taken in 1679 in Jalostotitlan & San Juan de los Lagos, Jalisco. It also contains records for families living in seven other pueblos in the surrounding area, most notable for their indigenous population.

LINK: http://www.nuestrosranchos.org/node/18950

I extracted the pages from the book titled "Historia de Nuestra Senora de San Juan de Los Lagos," which was published in Mexico in 1903 and is available at books.google.com. I though it would be convenient to post only the pages that contain the census.

It is hard to find ancestors unless you already have a substantial database of family groups with names from that period. I found it useful in confirming marriages and mother-father relationships that I had suspicions about, but had no concrete proof.

Please note that the letters "esc." after a name designates "slave/esclavo(a)" - kind of hard to take, but that's the way things were in those days. The census was finalized on May 6 of 1679.

Happy hunting.

Hi Pat:

I went to the Geneanet.org just to check it out. I tried the tab labeled
"origin of surname" I did a search for "Gonzalez"and it returned: "no
returns for your search".
I was surprised since Gonzalez is one the most popular Spanish surnames. I
was not trying to find out if there were any Gonzalez's in their database.
I was hoping to find the ORIGIN of the name, which I have already found in
more than one website.

I also visited the www.Genall.net page and you are right, there are a lot of
Gonzalez listed, but I couldn't find "Gonzalez de Hermosillo" This is in a
database that has 9990 surnames! Could be my eyesight.

Thank you Pat, I might go back to that site and check out some of its other
features.

The website that I mentioned (www.geneall.net) in my previous posting was another source site that may be helpful to those individuals that have linked their ancestry to other countries.

I personally have not used Geneanet.org, but will check it out. Thank you for sharing...

Linda, Esther has been a member for 7 years 10 weeks. It is not an ad. If
all of the NuetrosRanchos members had their tree on that site a lot of
people's missing info could be found much easier. I have mentioned the site
before and it is my preferred. I use Ancestry, Myheritage, rootsweb, and
Genoom. Nothing is better than Geneanet in my opinion.

I use Ancestry, WorldConnect (rootsweb), and a couple of others, but I haven't tried Geneanet. Some of my relatives are switching to MyHeritage from Ancestry and swear by that.

I am currently using the MyHeritage software, but have not upgraded to the premium on-line service. I enjoy the fact that it automatically searches other users of the software for matches. I have actually found others with the same family lines. This part is nice, since you can take a "sneak peak" at the other tree, then make contact with the owner to confirm any data. The only down fall I am seeing is that many of the individuals that are using the software don't seem to be serious genealogists.

I still regularly upload my family tree updates to Ancestry.com and continue to receive inquiries from others through this route.

Comment

Esther,

I no longer share my trees with Ancestry and MyHeritage because, as you said, too many people are not serious genealogists, don't view microfilms, etc. all they do is copy over other people's trees when only the name and region might be the same, but it is definitely not their ancestors. Instant family trees, I call that. I made one of my trees "private" on Ancestry after I found that someone "stole" my grandfather and all his ancestors. I tried to contact that person, and they did not respond. She has a cousin who does have the right ancestor.

I still get inquiries even from my "private" trees, since people can use the Ancestry "contact the owner of this tree" feature. Usually I find that we have common ancestors eight generations back.

I have been doing some of the research from my resources (transciptions I have done) for my cousins who normally just depend on what they find online, though I have to say that some of them do come up with info I haven't found such as from library archives online. One feature my cousins like on MyHeritage is the relationship search. From that they found that their parents were distand cousins, and that some ancestors were close cousins.

Well, said. I, too, have encountered similar problems. When I have
contacted a Family Tree "owner", I have discovered too many times that no
sourcing has occurred; and by admission of the "owner" is a copy of
someone's non-sourced family tree. It is discouraging, so much so that I am
reluctant to share my trees on-line.

How long have you been using this site? Another member of Nuestros contacted me privately and informed me that one of the main contributors (via other genealogists) is a professor at UNAM, Professor Javier Sanchiz.

If this is as great as it's beginning to sound, I would have to agree with you......if we all submitted our work, we would cut our work in half! I have spent over 10 years compiling data only to find out that someone else was busily compiling the same information!

Thanks for your input, Armando. I am beginning to feel a little less skeptical.

I have only been here 1yr 19wks. Javier Sanchiz had begun his research on
Veracruz and it started to encompass other areas of Mexico. Therefore
whatever he has that includes our area ties into people or surnames of the
area of his study. His UNAM page can be found at One of the reasons I
like Geneanet so much is the popularity of it worldwide. I have found trees
from Spain and Mexico that aren't found on other sites. At the same time I
have found some trees on other sites not found on Geneanet. Using all free
sites would actually be the best way for all of us to help each other out.
Especially since all that has to be done is sign up and import and export
ged files.

I went to the website just for a quick check and tried to look up, under
origins of surnames, "Gonzalez"' and it came back with " no data
available"
Gonzalez, one of the most popular Spanish surnames and they don't have any
data???

I don't believe I'll be using this website.

John, that is because the source is : An etymological dictionary of family
and Christian names - By William Arthur - 1857. I did a search of Gonzalez
in Jalisco and there were 224 matches.

Hi Michael,

Where are you researching Huizar? I know that a lot of them are in the Huejuquilla El Alto, Jalisco, Mexico area.

Comment

Michael Huizar,

I am not presently focusing on deep research of my wife's ancestry; but,the parents of her grandfather --- Jocé Amado Acosta (1874-?)--- were Teodoro Acosta and Maria Jesus HUIZAR (1884-after 1930).

Since this is a relatively rare surname, I hope this is helpful to you.

Their names, names of their parents and children, their land of origen, what port they embarked at, their area of destination in the new world. Their profession, their relatives in the Indies, etc... I hope this helps.

Agon123,

Google "the Spanish in the New World", and it will bring up several articles to answer some of your questions.

I also found this link helpful: www.aasd.k12.wi.us/Staff/reedmarlyce/ChapterOutlines/Ch02.pdf
(Europeans encounter the New World).

Columbus landed in the Bahamas and it was decades later that Cortez made inroads into Mexico. The Spaniards were in competition also with the Portuguese mostly and other Europeans who were mainly motivated by greed and the desire to exploit the natural resources of the New World.

Probably the most numerous class of Europeans to journey to the new world were middle class, merchants and craftsmen and soldiers: Iron workers, mining engineers, cartographers, clergy, navigators, those who knew how to work with firearms, horses, wheeled vehicles, ships, etc.

I'm curious what books are available that talk about the process/journey that the Spanish immigrants took when they first arrived, then settled where they did? In others, where did they embark from Spain? Who were the people that immigrated (they weren't all Dukes and wealthy landowners!)? Where did they land in Mexico?

Hola Arturo,

I have found a couple of interesting volumes that add insight into the immigration process that some of our Spanish ancestors went through to get into Nueva España.

You're right, they had to land SOMEWHERE via boat - and Nueva Galicia is in the middle of the mainland! Here a couple of texts that bring to light the lives of these courageous immigrants, and the circumstances in which they traveled here:

1) La Vida Cotidiana en la America Española en Tiempos de Felipe II, Siglo XVI - by Georges Baudot (I only found it in Spanish, has a great chapter that describes the boat trip and travel conditions).

2) Cartas Privadas de Emigrantes a Indias, 1540-1616 - by Enrique Otte (there is an English language version, "Letters and People of the Spanish Indies, Sixteenth Century," also by Otte, but it only has 38 letters, vs. the 650 private correspondence exposed in the Spanish language version).

The above two works don't necessarily concentrate on Zacatecas personalities, but do give a realistic insight into the lives, thoughts, desires, hopes, and intentions of many Spanish immigrants. And you're right again! The vast majority of them were not Dukes or Hidalgos...most of them were poor and struggling back home. They were persuaded by their relatives who were already in the Indies to take the perilous trip. They did so with stories of land of milk-and-honey...

In addition to the "Land and Society" work by Chevalier, already mentioned here - there are the following texts, which give us insight into the lives of the folks living in Zacatecas:

3) Soldiers, Indians & Silver: The Northward Advance of New Spain, 1550-1600 - by Philip Wayne Powell

4) Silver Mining and Society in Colonial Mexico, Zacatecas, 1546-1700 - by P.J. Bakewell

5) Los Señores de Zacatecas: Una Aristocracia Minera del Siglo XVIII Novohispano - by Frederique Langue (again, I've only found this text in Spanish)

#4 and #5 above are heavy reads - they are academic texts, with lots of analytical data - but I have found a few invaluable nuggets of information that have been helpful in my searches.

---AND...naturally, your next step after the above, will be wanting to learn about the lives of your Spanish ancestors WHILE THEY LIVED IN SPAIN...if that's the case, then I recommend:

6) Spanish Society: 1400-1600 - by Teofilo F. Ruiz (a very insightful, easy read, that tells of the social, religious and political structures in Spain in the period of the migration to the Indies.

--Good luck, and happy searching!

Saldivar Ramirez

Wondering if anyone can help me tie in these people with Juan Silva Ramirez 1901 - 1994, hijo de Pedro Silva and Angela Ramirez.

Comments

Comment

According to family lore these Silvas are not related to the other Silvas of the HAcienda
whom came from Calvillo, Ags. These silvas Ive been told llegaron de otro pueblo,
by my grandfather he does not know. Nochistlan might explain a bit. In a matter of minutes
I was able to get Simon Saldivar's genealogy back to the 1700s. Family Search is incredible!
If this relation between Simon and Pedro is true then their father would be Rafael de Saldivar
and Francisca Olasaba married 7 may 1828 in Nochistlan. Simon's parents are Ambrosio Saldivar
and Maria de la Trinidad Perez. I can send a report if you want

Hey Daniel, I would appreciate a copy of that report you mentioned.

Some of us are aware of not being the same Silva's from La Hacienda De La Luz. Rumors are that Juan Silva or family came from Vallecitos, Nochistlan, Zacatecas. Also that supposedly he was an only child and other rumors that he had a sister too. Another rumor was that he had a stepfather and left at a young age after his mother died.

If I remember correctly I heard tha he didn't know if he was a Saldivar or a Silva because he was on his own from 6/7 years of age. He had family with both surnames and that he had many cousins.

The mother's name is right on the money Angela Ramirez...my aunt remembers conversations with Juan Silva about his mother. Also that his father could have been a Pedro Silva or a Romulo Silva or Saldivar.

Juan Silva had a nephew by the name of Maximiano Silva Olmos if that helps. He never had a Birth Certificate, nor any other document with him.

Comment

In my family archives we have Maximiano's birth record? But it does not mention his parents?
Even Im a bit confused Ill have to look for it. HE was born 13 Aug 1921 in La Luz. His death record
reads 27 March 2005 in La Luz. In the death record of Juan Silva Ramirez or Saldivar it reads
his parents were Pedro Silva and Angela Ramirez. He died 10 March 1994 in Calvillo. I will
send a report later today.
