Sally, you're NOT going to believe this but I am looking right at a copy of a 1695 christening record of one of their kids (Teresa de Chaves). Agueda Olague was the daughter of Juana de la Torre and Miguel Olague, which I found at the familysearch.org--however, I'm not descended from Teresa, I'm directly descended from Agueda's and Pedro's son Francisco, who married Clara de los Reyes. (don't know when, had to be before 1726). Their daughter, Phelipa Gertrudis de Chaves(z) married her second cousin Cristobal Villavicencio (b. about 1732 in Jerez) at Los Chaves. Their apparent only child, Juliana del Carmen Villavicencio (isn't that a beautiful name?) was born in 1758 in Las Tetillas, Jerez.



Where did you get Agueda and Pedro's marriage info? I would love to get a copy. Marge:)

Dear Marge,
When I first came upon ranchos yahoo groups I
 read every message over a period of time. I remember your name and 
thought we could possibly make a connection. I never connected the 
Colmenero's from Jerez to my grandmothers Colmenero's In Teocaltiche.
I havn't seen to many files from the members yet. I do have a Pedro 
Chavez Banuelos married to Agueda Olague Del Rio Etulain on 8 Dec 1681 
and thier parents. My Zuniga married an Aro in 1793.

Podcast Interview Help

hmmm, I'm always wanting the best I can get. I'm not fluent in my
Spanish and believe that my stammering will distract from the quality
content that this interview can expose. I realize el Señor Gonzalez
Lopez is directing us to some other significant persons to interview
and possibly to interviewing someone in Public Relations at the AGN,
but he also seems to be quite knowledgeable and would be a good place
to start for an interview to get a researchers perspective.



I guess I'm wondering if anyone in Ranchos would like the first
opportunity to interview el Señor Gonzalez Lopez. . .yes I know this is
my project and I'm certainly not wanting to put any pressure on any of
you, but just in case someone might see the value of some inside
information, well who knows maybe someone might step forward. If I
can't find someone here or another couple of places I'll do it myself,
but I know that it could be done much better by someone that is much
more fluent than I.



If anyone is

Prima, wow. I'm not sure we'd have to check but there is a fair chance
that we are related via out Bañuelos lines. We'll see. Don't let this
get you off track though because I remember you said you wanted to
concentrate on your paternal grandmother's side first

introduction

Dear Sally,

Welcome! An ancestor of mine had a sister who married a Colmenero. I have Gonzalez, Ortiz, de la Torre, Chavez, and Olague in my family tree. I am descended from a Zuniga and an Haro, too. My Saldivars married into the Colmeneros and the Colmeneros married into the Berumen and Carlos families. They, in turn, married into the Banuelos. These are all Jerezanos. Marge V.:)

2006 Salt Lake City Trip/conference

Josie and Joseph,
 
Count me in, and of course it's subject to change depending on what else is going on in my life but for now I'm in. Hubby is not sure at the time whether he wants to come and if he doesn't go I'm up for sharing a room with one of the ladies of the Ranchos group. It would have to be a non-smoker as I don't smoke and can't tolerate smoke for health reasons.
 
I can't wait to see and meet some of these people who I feel I already know through this group. Yes I know that we're there to learn from the speakers but what I truly look forward to is meeting all or some of you. I know meeting Joseph, Kitty and Rich, Helyn and Jonathan was a real pleasure.
 
Thanks Josie for helping us put this together. When I went by myself last March I should have stayed at one of the hotels next to the temple. Walking by myself at night was a little scary and a little stupid on my part. The Greyhound Bus Depot is a block and a half away and there are some scary individuals. One night I was

Oral History



if anyone in the group wants to submit a short audio clip of some of
their families oral history for my podcast please send it to. I'm not
wanting just conversations but right to the point accounts of what
happened:



Joseph Puentes

PO Box 12123

Durham, NC 27709



the submissions should be in digital format but if they must I can
handle an audio cassette and no more than about 20-30 minutes long. the
following is for interviews if you are doing it over the phone, but
some would apply to a live recording:



hints---



1) if you are using a tape recorder you will get a better recording if
you use batteries rather than plug into the electricity which creates
additional background noise. But if you can find someone with a digital
recorder even if its just as a loan for a day that would be great. Let
me know about which type you will use because you will then need to
take it to your local electronics store: Frys, Radio Shack, other to
find the best way of hooking into your phone line for a

2006 Salt Lake City Trip/conference

I forwarded this to the group for Josie:


Joseph
asked me to bring this to the group every month or so until the
conference happens.  He said that way any new members that join in the
meantime will have the earliest notice available in case they might
want to go.
 
As
far as the proposed research trip to SLC for NEXT YEAR - 2006, I spoke to Ruth Gomez
Schirmacher (Librarian and Latin-American Consultant International
Reference) in SLC when Mickey Garcia
and I
 were there in September.  Ruth helps George Ryskamp put the
Hispanic conference together each year. I told her we (the Ranchos Group members) were
interested in attending next years
conference
and she liked the idea.  We also met with Jonathan
Walker at the library.  He is a very nice person and helped us
tremendously!   He had some very good tips that would be very helpful
to all of us when we do our research on "familysearch.org".........We
spoke to the Director of Sales and Marketing for the Best Western Salt
Lake Plaza
