Nueva Galicia

Hi Joseph:
 
Tough assignment, trying to determine which
states are covered on this  "Nueva Galicia" map.  The boundries are
not well defined.
 
I'll give it a try.  The map covers the area
of Mexico from about 23 degrees North latitude to about 18 degrees North
latitude. If you look at a modern map of Mexico, you'll see the following
States are inside this area: Nayarit, southern part of Sinaloa,  Jalisco,
Michoacan, Guerrero, Southern part of Zacatecas, Aguascalientes, Mexico,
Guanajuato, Veracruz, San Luis Potosí and I probably missed a
couple.
 
I have a book that shows a map of Nueva Galicia
in the XVI century. It defines the area sorrounded by these places: 
(Starting in the South and going clock-wise )  Queretaro, Guadalajara,
El Teúl, Colotlan, Durango, Cuencamé, Parras, Saltillo, Ciudad Valles. 
Inside the area are: Guanjuato, Jalostotitlan, Zacatecas, and San Luis
Potosi.  You got to remember that La Nueva Galicia  expanded from here
in later years.  I am

Dear Maria:  I would so appreciate knowing if the books cover the Romero or Garana families.  I have had no success in finding the Garana connection so far.  thanks in advance.  Mary Garana Allen

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.

I would love a meeting in Southern California/Los Angeles area.  I'm from
the San Gabriel Valley.
I'd love the opportunity to meet with anyone from this group.  I'm thinking
February would be good since
we all would need a month to "decompress" from the holidays......

  Hi all!  I just thought I'd write to ask who may be interested in a
  Southern California or maybe even a Central California meeting.
  Since I was so impressed with the

Nueva Galicia

Well thanks for asking. I did a quick search and came up with the
Benson Library collection of maps in Austin:

but specifically:

http://www.lib.utexas.edu/benson/historicmaps/index3.html



see here for a nice looking map from 1653 of Nueva Galicia. Basically
it was the area we are studying in Ranchos as well as parts of several
other states. Can someone explain a little better than me about what
those other states are?



thanks,



joseph

Empty Genealogy Folders


if anyone has some extra time I need a volunteer to go through the
genealogies and see if any of the folders are empty. I found one that
was empty and am now wondering if any of the others are empty. Email me
privately if you want to do this.


Also if anyone would care to go through the links and check to make sure
none of the links are broken that would be a great help. While you are
at it I would greatly appreciate it if you would "COPY" and paste into
an email what all the links are. that way if Yahoo ever has a
catastrophe we'll be in a little better situation in rebuilding. Again
email me privately


thanks,

Southern California meeting

Rosalinda,
I think this is a great idea.  Since I'm in the So. Cal-Los Angeles area I'd really like a meeting in So. Cal, however, depending on the timing I may be able to make it to a Central Cal meeting.

Since I was so impressed with the Sacramento meeting, I would like
to arrange something similar, since I'm sure there are many members
who would like to meet in the Southern California region.

Please tell me the following:

1.  Do you prefer a meeting in the Los Angeles area or Central
California, as
someone suggested in a previous message, so that
members in Northern California could meet us?

2.  Is January or February the best month for you?


If I can get ideas as to timing and interest, I can then offer
choices. 

Thanks!

Ray; I too am interested about the Iniguiz line. One of my ancestors is an Iniguiz and I know so little about them. Where is Nueva Galicia ? My ancestor (Macias) are said to be from Galicia, in Spain. I presume that Nueva Galicia is in the new world but don't know where.
