Retoños de España en la Nueva Galicia

Will you please check for my family names from Jalisco?? They are
Romero and de la Torre from the Guadalajara and Tepatitlan areas of
Jalisco. I'm not sure if they started there or moved there from
other areas. They were there at least from the mid to late 1800's.


Thank you for your help.

  The books cover the first Spanish settlers of Los Altos de Jalisco.
Some families do extend to other states, so you might find some of
your ancestry covered in one of the chapters.  I have a copy of Tomo
I which contains a "Plan general de la obra" for all the subsequent
Tomos (II - VI) and has all the surnames covered.  If anyone wants me
to check for any surnames send me an e-mail.

Each chapter begins with the first settlers and then traces their
male descendancy. Sources are cited for every bit of data.

Heavens! What a fascinating narrative...wish I could have gone with
you! I have Saldivar and de Llamas and Chavez blood from Jerez,
Zacatecas. Not your neck of the woods at all. A member of our family
in the 1700s married into the Isais family, which I think is a
beautiful name. Merry Christmas from Marge V.:)



successful trip

Hello!
 
I actually returned on December 8 from Mexico City and San Felipe "Torres Mochas", Guanajuato,  but I believe a large piece of my heart is still in Mexico. That trip has totally changed my life. Really. I don't really know where to begin because it was such an incredible experience. 
 
Much of the success of this trip I attribute to the kind help of many of you. There is Carol Turner who advised me about collecting "classic" photos, which I did.  I purchased a good digital camera just before I left and gave up trying to master the manual on the plane.  Luckily my new primo's son was into things electronic and taught me how to use it. Lucky me!  My 80-year-old primo Enrique Guzman Romero  has been into genealogy for decades and has written extensively about his town especially researching why it is called
"Torres Mochas".  He has  a magnificent collection of photos of several generations of the Romero family.  The most outstanding was his collection of wedding photos. 

Batch number searches.

Hi Jonathan:
 
What are you and Susan referring to when you talk about, "Batch Number searches"? You mentioned a CD as source of information, Are the contents of this CD, available at any web site on the INTERNET?
 
Thanks.

Yes, I am still going, to the FHL. I get done, there 2 to 3 times, a
month.  In fact, I am trying right now, to get approved, so that I can
teach classes at the FHL. And also, that the Library workers, can use
my disc, in helping the patrons.

When you come, in May.  Just let me when you are
coming, and I will
make arraangements, to be there.

Also, if anyone is interested in learning, about performing Batch
Number searchs,  I just uploaded Powerpoint presentation on Batch
Number searches, at the Mexican FHR group.

thanks,

Hi Alicia--
 
Would you look up one name for me in your book?  I have an ancestor, Maria Manuela Duran, who was married in 1732 in Tlaltenango, so I guess she was born around 1715 or so.  Her marriage record notes that she was born in Nochistlan, but it did not note  her parents' names.  She married Domingo Perez.
 
Rosalinda,
 
I took the time to do the lookup and I find that all of the Maria Duran's in this book were born prior to 1700. It may be that she's the daughter of one of these Duranes. The name Duran is very prominent in Nochistlan,
Teocaltiche and Xalostitlan.
 
Capitulo 2: Descendencia de Juan Ximon Duran y Regina de Aguayo, has many references to many given names for Duranes but mostly for the 17th century. They have baptisms, confirmations and marriages as well as death records, land grants or deeds, wills and partial testaments, also marriage investigations.
 
If you want more detailed information, don't hesitate to ask, I will be

Just a little note........when I was in Salt Lake City in
September with Mickey Garcia we met with Jonathan and he is the nicest
guy!  He was very helpful and courteous!  As usual, we did not have
enough time to spend with him,  only one day!   We told him of
our proposed trip to SLC next October for the Hispanic Conference and he agreed
to do a small presentation.  At that time we suggested he give a
presentation on batch numbers because that is what he was helping us with. 
Perhaps we can come up with some suggestions on topics he can help us
with.  When I spoke to the Sales Director of the Best Western Plaza Inn, he
said he could provide us with a meeting room if we had enough
attendees. 
 
 I know everyone is busy with the holidays right now
but maybe in January we can start working on this......

here is a message Jonathan sent to his Mexican FHR group. I've invited
him before to announce this on Ranchos so maybe I beat him to it. In
another email to his group he stated that the cost is $10.



good information here with many many hours of work done to put it
together. contact him directly if you want one.

ps: also for those that are researching outside of our target area this
group is a good one to join. Jonathan has been and continues to be very
helpful.

Irma, Ray and Jose Luis,
 
I'm afraid I was too hasty in saying that the Xauregui's were not to be found in Jose Luis' book. You know what they say, haste makes waste.
I found many chapters that reference Xauregui's. I did not find them initially because they fall under the descendants of families of different names. The book has 100 chapters but none of the chapters have titles with Xauregui's listed.
 
In order to find this surname you must go to the other index towards the back of the book

Definitely I will contact you when I know the date
of my trip to Utah. It will be nice to see you again. This time I want to take
some clases in the library, if possible.
I will also look at your power point
presentation.
 
Thank you so much for all your help
