The City of Colotlan was segregated Spanish/Native
Indians, when did the segregation end?  I noticed our
family started to mix with the Indios in the early to
mid-1800's.  

What small battles took place near and around the
city?

What type of life did women have to endure during the
late 1700's, early 1800's in regards to family,
survival, work?

What type of education was provided during the 1800's?

What is the most significant tragedy that stands out
in Colotlan's history as well as a joyous occasion
that that will always be remembered or stand out in
history?

Well I could keep going with many questions but then
the interview would go on for two days!

These are great questions!  Some of my questions are:

1) She lived in El Paso and I believe was born
in
Chihuahua!
2) The Moors were in Spain for over 700 years and
I
suppose that many Spaniards, including us, have their
blood in our
veins.  My brother-in-law and his wife
(both born in Los Altos, Jalisco)
just returned from
Spain and told me that the people in southern
Spain
look just like the people from Los Altos, Jalisco.
Also, many of
the north Africans (Moroccans) look like
us; he said he could not tell the
difference.

Arturo,

I appreciate the vote of confidence but I must respectfully decline.
I'm sure other members are better qualified to occupy a place in this
new commitee.

We have the De La Torre connection but I don't recognize Rancho los 
Cuervos. What are a few De La Torre names in you family? I have 
Sostenes, Pedro, Jesus, Pascual.
That is Great-Great grandfather, Great grandfather, Grandfather and 
Father (Pascual De La Torre). Let me know if any of these names 
sound familiar to you. they were from La Laguna Grande in Zacatecas
