Hello Irma:

 

Nice to hear from you.  I am pretty ignorant of
Mexico and it's "towns", or "ranchos', as they call them?  But
the areas I know of are Momax, Tlaltenango, Totoletiche(sp?) in Zacatecas. 
In Jalisco, I am not sure, but have been told that the "ranchos"  border
the states of Zacatecas and Jalisco.  One of these is an area called "El
Refugio". 

Also, the "Alvarez" ancestors list is pretty
large and encompasses many surnames.  The strongest is "Campos". 
I will be posting my genealogy as it is to this group and hopefully will find
some connections.  The two names you mentioned are not familiar to me,
but I will check. 

Regards Carol

Hello to Everyone; 

I want to introduce myself; my name is Carol
Lester and I am researching my father's family from the Jalisco, Zacatecas,
Agualicentes areas. In particular, I am researching the "Alvares (z) line. 
I have not been able to locate any live relatives, or even anyone who knew the
family.  I am hoping I will find some connections through this
group.

Regards,

Carol Lester

Hola Jeannette:

 

I too have just joined this group and will be posting
my genealogy in the next day or so.  I am searching my line of Alvarez and
actually have apretty extensive paper trail for them.  However, I have not
been able to trace anyone who is living from that side.  I am sure they are
out there.  May I inquire the names of the Alvarez you are
researching?

Regards,

Carol

Ranchos Reunion photo

I hope this photograph comes through. If not let me know and I'll try and resend it.

On the left is Rich Cortez, right/back is his wife Kitty. The left /front is Helyn and right/front is yours truly, Alicia.

 

Yesterday in San Jose, Kitty and Rich Cortez, Helyn and myself met at Chevys for the first time. Kitty, Rich and Helyn the experienced genealogists shared many of their tips and secrets for researching while in Salt Lake. I discovered that one of the reasons I'm not moving as fast as most people are is that the area of Nochistlan does not have many records extracted or at least not as many as the other parts of Jalisco and Zacatecas.

 

Rich, Kitty and Helyn, thanks so much for your help and support, I came home yesterday evening and spent hours on the internet doing research and formatting my documents to take to Salt Lake in three weeks, according to Kitty's tried and tested methods.

Joseph,

 

I remember seeing a "Juliacan" sign while I was driving from Aguascalientes
to Encarnacion de Diaz, Jalisco many years ago.

 

Hope this helps,

Welcome to the group, Jeannette!  I have families from the Jerez area as well, but I definitely wanted to say hi to someone with family from my hometown, Ontario, CA.  I don't live there now, but many of my families moved from Jalisco and Zacatecas to Ontario in 1900--1920.  Many members of my families live in that area still.  I do not see any of my family names on your list, but it's nice to meet someone with connections to Ontario.

Hola!

I'm glad I stumbled onto this group because my mother and I just
started researching into our family's roots and we would love to learn
and contribute to this group.  My name is Jeannette Soriano Gonzalez
and most of my family on both sides lives in the Los Angeles/Ontario,
CA area.  However, my father's family is from La Ermita de Guadalupe,
a pueblo near Jerez, ZAC.  I am looking for the following surnames

I'm looking forward to reading through the list and putting our
geneology line up once we input into the Family Tree Maker software we
bought recently!  Would appreciate any

% of Films Transcribed to IGI

Published by Nuestros Ranchos – Published on

Well I'm thinking about it and I'm taking this discussion to the group.
. .



oh absolutely I understand what you are asking now. Yes yes it takes
volunteers to transscribe the info off of the films to then input into
the IGI and other databases. When it comes down to it I'm sure that
only a very small % of the films available are online. If you want
Valpariso maybe you should call SLC and ask them about it. . .hey maybe
you could be one of the volunteer transcribers though it would take an
enormous amount of time. I'm going to forward this conversation to
Jonathan Walker to see if he might care to comment.



Jonathan what % of the films would you guess are on the IGI? This
discussion started because we couldn't find any info on those PDF files
for Valparaiso.



Jonathan. . .Do you know if there is a list of films on microfiche
available for Mexico but not necessarily transcribed onto the IGI?



thanks,



joseph
