I agree with you Alicia;

My father's cousin, and his wife, had a set of you
can't always tell by looking fraternal twins. The girl
grew up normal, tall, slim, brown eyes with long black
beatiful hair. The boy growth however was cut short,
height under four feet, green eyes, and  bright red
"carrot top" hair. They couldn't figure that one.

I feel some people do not understand what they are
really asking, assuming that it is just a matter of
having similar physical appearance. Sometimes physical
appearance is influenced by environmental factors and
not just genetics.

You're welcome, Alicia...and I don't know about the ancestors of the couple I mentioned.  I simply wondered whether or not you know them.

David,
 
Thanks for that information regarding the ''Ranchos Los Cuervos.'' That gives me something to go on until this Wednesday when I review the films that have just arrived at my Fremont FHC for the marriage of Prudencio de Olmos and Juana de Jauregui in Nochistlan Zac in the year 1857.
 
Unfortunately I don't know Bernie or Esther Olmos, do you know where their descendants came from?

Alicia,

I looked in Garcia Cubas' "Diccionario..." and found three ranchos named los Cuervos.  1. Rancho en la municipalidad de Huejúcar octavo cantón (Colotlán) estado de Jalisco.  2.  Rancho de municipalidad de Tepetongo

I don't see why not as the Cathedral is very close to where the 
meeting will be.  I'm just not sure how long the relics will be 
there.  I guess we can call the Cathedral prior to going.

Irma--

 

No, I don't have the surname Romo in my lines.  It is my husband's ancestors, the Garcias, who are light skinned, tall, light haired, and hazel-eyed or blue eyed Tapatios from Jalisco.  The photo of the saint in the article for which I sent a link bears a striking resemblance to my husband, his father, and his great-grandmother, Marciana Cervantes.  I have traced some of the Garcias who married into the Calzada family that were from Rincon de Romos.  My husband's gggg-grandfather

Irma,
The Cathedral in down town Sacramento has just been refurbished and
from what I understand some of Toribio Romo's ancestor's requested
some relics from Guadalajara.

This is what my sister and aunt told me at Thanksgiving.  I guess
there are a lot of Romo's here in Sacramento and they requested that
one of his bones be sent from Guadalajara to  the Cathedral.  I guess
they were supposed to have a mass for Santo Toribio Romo this past
Sunday at the Cathedral and display some old relics.

Irma,
The Cathedral in down town Sacramento has just been refurbished and 
from what I understand some of Toribio Romo's ancestor's requested 
some relics from Guadalajara.

This is what my sister and aunt told me at Thanksgiving.  I guess 
there are a lot of Romo's here in Sacramento and they requested that 
one of his bones be sent from Guadalajara to  the Cathedral.  I guess 
they were supposed to have a mass for Santo Toribio Romo this past 
Sunday at the Cathedral and display some old relics.

Alicia,

I looked in Garcia Cubas' "Diccionario..." and found three ranchos named los Cuervos.  1. Rancho en la municipalidad de Huejúcar octavo cantón (Colotlán) estado de Jalisco.  2.  Rancho de municipalidad de Tepetongo, partido Jerez, estado de Jalisco.  3.  Rancho de municipalidad de Mátape, Distrito de Ures, Sonora.  Hope this helps.

PS: Do you by any chance know a Bernie Olmos or his wife, Esther?  She still works in public schools in ESUHSD and he went out of SJ to continue as an administrator?  Just curious.
