Nuestros Ranchos Site

I have a Sebastian de Luna married around 1680 to Josefa Lozano, from Aguascalientes. The only Sebastian de Luna I've found around that time and region is the son of Luis de Luna and Josefa de Haro, or Esquivelm christened in Tlaltenango on 10 February, 1659. Could anyone confirm if he is the one married to Josefa Lozano?

This has been a question to me for a while. Although we are Mormon we still carry the tradition of Padrinoship. for instance mine are my grandfather and his 2nd wife. I have a question. can Padrinos be a brother and sister? Im trying to connect my Angela de Oropesa.

is there a map that identifies all the ranchos in the Jalisco area here on file

Hello there Anna ,

My name is Welester G. Alvarado my Great great Grandfather (Candelario ) was born in Villa de Saltillo in the state of Coahuila his parents were Juan de Alvarado and Maria Pascuala de Luna , Jose Antonio Candelario Alvarado was thier son baptized the 10th of Feb. 1792 . My question is do you think that the Lunas from Tlatenango came up to Coahuila ?

FYI

For anyone interested I have in recent days updated my family history
file containing surnames: Miramontes, Sandoval, Samaniego,Llamas,
Bugarin, Luna,Bobadilla, Abila, Escovedo, Chias etc.

Wow, thanks for this information. Pedro Prudencio Marin de Herrera
originated in this little rancho and was married several times during the mid
1700's....one of his wives was a Bugarin and one was an Estrada. Who knows, we might

Arturo,

I wonder how close the two ranchos (de las Ranas and Loera)? It appears
that the two families had a connection....now to unravel the mystery....

Thanks for keeping me in mind Arturo.

Yep...this is where Helyn's Herrera's line and mine separate....Pedro was
married at least four times...and Bugarin was one of the wives....I am so happy
for you Helyn....Arturo helped you break the cycle....

I was recently surfing on Family Search and found the place where Lope Ruiz de Esparza originated from has several films from the 1500's. Ciudad Esparza, Pamplona, Navarre, Espana. Has anyone ever ordered this film. Its possible that Lope Sr. or his grandfather Martin Ruis de Esparza, or grt gf Simon Ruis de Esparza might be in this film

These are films for Ciudad Esparza, where the Ruiz de Esparzas were seated in acient times at the Palacios de Esparza. Hope thisis useful to other members! -Daniel Mendez del Camino

Arturo,
I can't be absolutely sure of course, but it looks like this may be a strong
connection to my family line. The "acta" that I have definitely states that
Pedro was from the Rancho de las Ranas, but I also have bumped into the fact

Hi, Everyone:

Well, I finally got it right. I updated my genealogy folder and uploaded
