First of all let me apologize for writing in English. I do not speak
Spanish. I also do not know what you wrote to Nuestros Ranchos, but
the names are familiar.

My father was Jose Ramon Romero de la Torre, son of Castulo Romero
and Sofia de la Torre. He was born in Tepatitlan de Morelos in 1907.

Meliton Gonzalez and Maria Navarro had a daughter named Maria
Gonzalez who married Miguel Barba. Miguel Barba's parents were Jose
Wenceslas Barba and Maria Mersedes (Brigida) Jimenez. Miguel Barba's
sister, Maria Encarnacion Barba married Jose Romero who is brother to
my grandfather, Castulo Romero. Castulo and Jose are the sons of
Manuel Romero and Marcelina de la Torre.

Maria Refugio de la Torre married Jose Jesus Navarro and have
children named Fernando and Maria. Fernando married Maria Luisa
Romero, my grandfather Castulo Romero's sister.

Gil Navarro was mentioned in the marriage registration of Manuel
Romero and Marcelina de la Torre. I haven't been able to read
everyone's name because I have a poor copy and it is hard to read.

It looks like our families connect. Do you know anything about the
de la Torre and Romero families? Are we cousins? I have gotten most
of my information through the microfisch copies of the Baptismos of
Tepatitlan in Salt Lake City.

I have posted my gedcom at nuestrosranchos. The entry for Manuel
Romero has an incorrect birth date. His parents were Serapio Romero
and Petra Pena. I will be sending a corrected gedcom to nuestros
soon. I just deciphered Manuel's parents names from his marriage
registration and am trying to find more information about Serapio and
Petra.

I am very excited to finally find a connection through Ranchos. I
hope we can help each other out.

Your cousin (I think)
