John, approximately 12 years ago I met a gentleman
from the Somos Primos genealogical group at the
Westwood Latter Day Saints library.  I don't remember
his name but he was a distant relative of my wife
Rebeca Gutierrez Gonzalez; although she did not
remember him.  He told me he also was from the same
Gonzales-Casillas family branch from Los Altos, like
my wife.  

He helped me to interpret a 1797 Jerez marriage
document written in Spanish.  Anyway, this gentleman
had genealogical charts of over 2200 past relatives
that started in Los Altos and went all the way back to
to the year 1200 in Spain. 

If you are able contact him, I'm sure he would be more
that happy to share his findings with you.  Also, the
gentlemen looked like an Anglo (typical of many of
those from Los Altos, fair, tall, blue eyes); his
English and Spanish were excellent and he seemed very
well educated, and friendly.  He told me that he lived
in San Fernando Valley and was a software programmer. 

If you contact the

John:
I've seen Jerez baptism records from the late 1800s to
the early 1900s.  I requested these records
(microfiche) a couple of years ago from our local LSD
library.  So they do exist.

Is anyone on this list familiar enough with Guadalajara to have
information on this chocolateria?

La Sultana Gran Chocolateria, Molino y Tostador De
Cafe.  It was located Av. Alvaro Obregon 295 in Guadalajara.  Aurelio

Reyes, Villasenor is also on the letterhead. It was established in
1900. My parents were there in 1941. I believe it was owned by
members of the de la Torre family.

Adolfo de la Torre owned several ranches around Guadalajara and
Tepatitlan de Morelos. His sister, Sophia de la Torre married
Castulo Romero, a tailor from Guadalajara. They lived in Tepatitlan
de Morelos ca. 1890-1910.

Thank you.
