Hello all it's been awhile since I have been on here but I have uncovered another line in Jalisco. I'm looking for any information that would help me verify (citation wise) the line I have so far on the surname of de Hijar. My grandmothers paternal side. The Hijar name can be traced back to the conquistador Jaime I of Aragon. I just need to document a few generations in Mexico. This is my line...any help would would be greatly appreciated! thank you
