Thank you.
Hello,
I'm reviewing the first film of Baptisms for Tlaltenango. I'm researching the Molina family. I found Manuela de Carcamo y Santa Cruz living with the Molina Family . She shows up as a godmother in the baptism of Josepha de Molina Albertiz (3 april 1636). Does anyone know anything about Manuela de Carcamo y Sta Cruz living in Tlaltenango??
Thanks

Hello,
I need help reading a record.
It is the baptismal record of Francisco Gonzalez (4 nov 1639) in tlaltenango.
The godparents were:
Rodrigo de castro "turget???" y Catalina Ponce doncella su cunada
The "turget" (I don't think is that) could be a clue.
Here is the link:

Hola a todos,
Me gustaría abrir una discusión sobre Gonzalo de Antunes o Antúnez "el Portugués", establecido en Michoacán en los siglos XVI y XVII, y genearca de los Antunes o Antúnez de Borja relacionados con los Villaseñor y muchas otras familias de la zona. En su honor y el de su familia reciben nombre el pueblo y Llanos de Antúnez en Michoacán.
También lo he visto nombrado como Gonzalo Antúnez y Yáñez.
La información que he encontrado acerca de él hasta ahora es muy interesante, enlisto algunos puntos importantes:
1.- En 1592 fue nombrado teniente de corregidor de Tancítaro.
2.- En 1598 contrae matrimonio en Pátzcuaro con María Martínez de Borja.
2.- El 24 de noviembre de 1613 fue nombrado familiar de la Inquisición por la ciudad de Pátzcuaro.
3.- En 1614 fue el receptor de una merced de dos sitios de ganado mayor y cuatro caballerías.
4.- En 1617 estableció una capellanía en la Hacienda de Cancita, con valor de dos mil quinientos pesos, para su hijo el bachiller Felipe de Antúnez.
Gabriel Ibarrola Arriaga, menciona en su libro "Familias y Casas de la Vieja Valladolid", publicado en 1969, que Gonzalo Antúnez fue originario de "Randulfes, en el Obispado de Braga (Portugal)", el cual yo he dado por supuesto que se refiere a la freguesía de "Rendufe" en Amares (hay otra con el mismo nombre en Guimarães, más lejana de Braga), puesto que no encuentro otra población con nombre parecido en la zona. En la misma publicación, escribe que fue hijo de Antonio Yanes (sic) e Isabel Rodríguez, lo malo es que no cita fuentes (o por lo menos no se ven en Google Books (https://books.google.es/books?id=bsAKAQAAIAAJ&q=%22gonzalo+antunez%22+p…). Dávila Garibi lo menciona en su obra "Del Comendador D. Leonel de Cervantes...", pero tampoco consigo sacar mayor información.
Diversas publicaciones a penas mencionan las investigaciones que mandó hacer sobre él el virrey Velasco, y la Real Cédula entregada "a un oidor" para que proceda en su contra. Sin embargo, el contenido de dichos procesos o investigaciones sigue siendo un misterio.
Si alguien se quiere unir en la búsqueda (citando fuentes y absteniéndose de hacer conjeturas) acerca de este antepasado de muchos de nosotros, seguramente lo agradeceremos todos.
Saludos cordiales.
Hello! In the marriage record for Francisco Hidalgo and Nicolasa de Blanca, I see herdo ydalgo (Hernando Hidalgo) and bisante nunes (Vicenta Nunes) listed as the groom's parents. Am I right? The one I am most unsure about is the name of the groom's mother.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Hey everybody!! I have a question about Gregorio Sandoval Legaspi and his wife.
I descend from his son Nicanor Sandoval, who married Sotera Rodríguez in 1878 and then Ramona Pulido in 1906. In the marriage with Ramona Pulido it states that he is a widow and mentions Sotera Rodríguez, and his parents are Gregorio Sandoval Legaspi and Dolores Pulido. This also matches their grandson, Maximiano Sandoval - my great grandfather.
However, in the marriage registry of Nicanor Sandoval and Sotera Rodríguez (his first wife), Nicanor appears as son of Gregorio Sandoval and Teresa Espinoza, and I don't understand this at all. All the other names match, the dates match, and "Teresa" doesn't sound like "Dolores" at all. It's also not a full name; she is "María Dolores Pulido de los Ríos", so nothing close to "Espinoza". Also, I searched for a registry for Gregorio Sandoval and Teresa Espinoza, and didn't find anything at all.
Do you think it was just a weird registry mistake?
Hello,
I'm reviewing the line of Pedro de la Torre and Rosa Maria Flores in Jerez, Zacatecas. I have several children for the couple. Also I know the parents of Pedro de la Torre (Joseph de la Torre Acosta and Josepha de la Torre del Rio). But I don't have Rosa's parents.
I have read that her parents are Pedro Flores de la Torre and Juana de la Torre but I couldn't find any sources for the information.
Does anyone have any sources to link her to the parents??
Any information would be greatly appreciated
Thank you
susana
Yes, This is WAY WAY off topic for this group but I'm helping my second cousin. I'm looking for baptism/birth records for 1888 and civil records for this area start in 1892 so I'm looking for baptism records and don't see it listed as a location in the church records.
If anyone is researching Coahuila where do you think folks registered their children for Sierra Mojada?
thanks,
Joseph Puentes
Hola,
Como muchos en este grupo soy descendiente de Maria de Isla y Cristobal Martinez Lozano quienes tuvieron descendencia en Aguascalientes en 1600's. Encontre en el foro, algo que escribio CARLOS PEREDO en 2014, hablando sobre MARIA DE ISLAS MOCTEZUMA:
" Gracias a Datos que en gran parte fueron investigados por Don Guillermo Tovar, sabemos con claridad que Benito de Isla casado con Magdalena Lavezares fueron padres de
Magdalena de Lavezares y
María de Isla"
Alguien sabe la fuente documental de la investigacion de Don Guillermo Tovar a la que CARLOS PEREDO se esta refiriendo? Estoy tratando, como muchos, de establecer el arbol de la familia ISLA en la zona.
Saludos

I think I found out where to look for military records of individuals that served in the americas. Such as Nueva Espana (Mexico):
https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Spain_Military_Records
The records of those that served in the Americas are found in the General Archive of Simancas. These records include the following places:
Buenos Aires
Cuba
Chile
Philippines
Guatemala
Nueva España (originally Mexico and Central America except Panama)
Viceroyalty of Peru (originally included most of Spanish South America)
Indias (Florida, Puerto Rico y Venezuela)
Archive of Simancas?

Hello, I came accross a Baptismo Record while doing research and I don't believe I've ever seen this.
The record states in parenthesis "(a quien baptizo en caso de necesidad Don Antonio Marmolejo)." I know for a fact that this person is not a member of the clergy from researching thousands of records from this parish. Don Antonio Marmolejo is married and has children.
Was this a common practice? Allowing someone other than a priest to baptize children?

Estimados Señores,
Vía mi antepasada María de Guiza Guerrero esposa de Alonso Rodríguez de Cabrera desciendo -por la n vez- de los Orozco Tovar sin embargo no me queda clara la filiación en esta ocasión.
María de Guiza Guerrero es hija de Domingo de Güiza Guerrero y de Agustina de Tovar Orozco quien estimo nació hacia 1620 (+/- 5).
La única Agustina que conozco al momento es la hermana de Francisco de Orozco Tovar y Sotelo quien a su vez casó con Mariana de Villalobos y Núñez, hermana entera del Pbro. Damián Núñez de Villalobos.
Las fechas no coinciden y parece que la hermana de Francisco de Orozco Tovar no contrajo matrimonio. Alguien tiene información sobre Agustina, esposa de Domingo de Guiza Guerrero?
Es posible que mi antepasada descienda de esta rama y me llama también la atención el caso de Leonor Sotelo. Alguien sabe si existe alguna conexión con la familia Sotelo Moctezuma?
Saludos cordiales.
Estimados Señores,
Les escribo para preguntar si alguno de ustedes tiene información sobre la familia "Orozco y Toledo". Esta familia se encuentra principalmente en Michoacán durante los S. XVII- S.XIX enlazando con algunas familias de la región como: Álvarez del Castillo, Gil de Hoyos, Silva, Ruiz de Chávez, Pérez de Garfias, etc. El Pbro. Ibarrola y Arriaga no dice mucho al respecto, otros autores dicen que su origen está en Diego de Orozco y Tovar -cuya ascendencia Villaseñor es ya conocida- y en su esposa María Enríquez de Toledo.
En las memorias de la Academia Mexicana de la Historia se hace mención de una ejecutoria y de un árbol genealógico desde García Sánchez, I Señor de la Casa de Orozco hasta la familia Orozco y Toledo pero desconozco dónde se encuentra esta genealogía. Respecto a los Enríquez de Toledo no encuentro mucha información sobre ellos en Michoacán, la persona que encuentro con ese apellido es el Obispo de Michoacán Alonso Enríquez de Toledo pero desconozco qué es María de él.
Saludos cordiales y de antemano gracias.

Here is an archive that you can browse fleets of ships with names of passengers that traveled from Spain to the Americas. It is under the term "Relacion de Pasajeros:"
Starts on pg2:
http://pares.mcu.es/ParesBusquedas20/catalogo/find?nm=&texto=Relaci%C3%…
My ancestor Joan Angon was on the Flota de 1606 to Nueva Espana.
He traveled on the Navio La Nao Magdalena. Nao is a class type of ship which are characterized by their shape. A U shape in the middle which is same class that Columbus sailed in.
One note is while I was browsing this list of archives I saw one called "Flota de Azogues." I don't know what is that. But after looking it up is is a "Flota de Mercantes." Or Fleet of Merchants.

I believe I have connected the descendants of Geronimo Sanchez de Porras and Mariana Suarez de Ibarra to Francisco de Covarrubias y Leyva , Contador, son of Gaspar Covarrubias and Margarita de Quijada and Maria de Colio, grandaughter of Conquistador Diego Gomez de Colio and Catalina de la Torre.
There are many documents that must be gone through to get the whole story on the family. At this point I have gone through:
(Capellanias 1649-1851) Capellanias for Pedro Gomez de Colio and Nicolas de Ibarra, images 5 - 214

Pares > Busqueda Avanzada > Buscar: "Meritos Diego de Herrera", Fecha desde 1600 hasta 1650 > Archivo General de Indias > Indiferente General > MERITOS: Diego de Herrera, fecha creacion 1645
I have partially gone through:

Pares > Busqueda Avanzada > "Informaciones Francisco Covarrubias" > Archivo General de Indias > Audiencia de Guadalajara > Informaciones: Francisco Covarrubias Pages 1 - 45/193
(Capellanias 1692) Capellania for Francisco Covarrubias
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:9392-6DSL-8C?mode=g&i=59&wc=3J4… Pages 62 - 109
I need to go through:
Capellania for Hernan Guerra de Colio (which seems pertinent)
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:9392-687R-C?i=196&wc=3JW1-HZQ%3…
For ease of discussion I'm going begin with Geronimo Sanchez de Porras (son of Geronimo Sanchez de Porras and Leonor de Hermosillo) who was married to Mariana Suarez de Ibarra (daughter of Alferez Mayor Francisco Suarez de Ibarra and Elena Illan de Vargas)
Here is what I believe to be the proper lineage (I say believe because I have never read so many conflicting testimonies in my 4 years of genealogy, the probably conflict because information is provided about people who lived 150 - 200 yrs before some witnesses):
For the Colio side:
Elena Illan de Vargas
daughter of Mariana de Covarrubias y Colio (spouse Melchor Vargas Machuca)
daughter of Maria de Colio (spouse Francisco Covarrubias y Leyva, contador)
daughter of Maria de Colio (spouse Juan Guerra)
daughter of Diego Garcia de Colio and Catalina de la Torre
For the Covarrubias side:
Elena Illan de Vargas
daughter of Mariana de Covarrubias y Colio (spouse Melchor Vargas Machuca)
daughter of Francisco Covarrubias y Leyva, contador (spouse Maria de Colio)
son of Gaspar de Covarrubias and Margarita Quijada
So heres how I put it all together
Capellanias 1649-1851 Img 12 teaches Pedro Gomez de Colio (Arcediano) is the son Diego Garcia de Colio and Catalina de la Torre, both from Spain
Capellanias 1649-1851 Imgs 70 - 72 teaches Nicolas de Ibarra is is the son of Alferez Mayor Francisco Suarez de Ibarra and Elena Vargas, daughter of Melchor Vargas and Juana de Colio, daughter of Diego de Colio, brother of Pedro Gomez de Colio (very different than the lineage above)
For the baptism of Mariana Suarez de Ibarra, Guadalajara 1666 (searchable in FS), Elena uses the surname Covarrubias
Capellanias 1649-1851, Imgs 12,39 appears Pedro Vargas Machuca son of Captain Melchor Vargas Machuca and Mariana de Colio y Covarrubias. Unfortunately the lineage to the Colio's for Mariana is not disclosed thus far in any documents. I believe Mariana is the Juana Colio referred to in Capellanias 1649-1851 Imgs 70 - 72 Nicolas de Ibarra's lineage.
Pedro Vargas is baptized in Guadalajara 1617 (searchable in FS) to Melchor Vargas and Mariana Covarrubias. I believe Pedro Vargas is Elena Illan de Vargas' sister. The latest Mariana would have been born then approx 1577-1601.
Throughout Capellanias 1649-1851 and Capellanias 1692 children of Francisco Covarrubias and Maria de Colio utilize the surname Colio y Covarrubias. Children discloses are Alfonsa, Diego married to Catalina Angulo y Figuroa, and Francisco, a priest. A baptism
for Alfonsa can be found in Guadalajara 1600, daughter of Francisco Covarrubias and Maria de Colio. This would place her mothers birth in a similar range (1560 - 1584) as Mariana de Colio y Covarrubias spouse of Melchor Vargas Machuca. Therefore Mariana de Colio y Covarrubias must be a daughter for Francisco Covarrubias and Maria de Colio.
Smooth sailing from here. In the Informaciones: Francisco Covarrubias (Contador) Pg 1, states Francisco is married to Maria de Colio, granddaughter of Diego Garcia de Colio, conquistador. Pgs 31 - 32 state Francisco is the son of Gaspar de Covarrubias and Margarita Quijada. Maria de Colio, his wife, is the daughter of Juan Guerra and Maria de Colio, this second Maria is daughter of Diego Garcia de Colio and Catalina de la Torre.
That essentially sums up how I concluded the lineage. Further proof Capellanias 1649-1851 Img 13 Pedro Gomez de Colio states Francisco de Covarrubias y Colio is related to him via his sister, Maria de Colio. So any tie with Covarrubias comes from Pedro's sister Maria, and not Diego, as the Nicolas de Ibarra lineage says.
Here is some additional proof that Elena Illan de Vargas probably did not descend from Diego Colio, brother of Pedro Gomez de Colio:
Capellanias 1692 Img 66 Diego de Herrera stated Maria de Colio is his grandmother, sister of Pedro Gomez de Colio.
Hola, I'm researching my Martin del Campo ancestors in Tateposco, Jalisco. I need help locating an apparently misfiled Cuquio baptismal book, "Libro 12" file, at familysearch.
I can see the Cuquio baptism register "Libro 11" at https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:9392-GB36-TM. This covers baptisms from 9-May-1779 through 5-Mar-1788. It is on film 615013 (DGS # 004031202). Then the records pick up at film 615014 (DGS # 004722604). That file has a handful of records from about 30-Mar-1789 with no book ID, and I see the start of "Libro 13" at https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:9392-FQ97-5G. This book has baptisms listed from 13-Jun-1789. Missing Libro 12 would appear to have Cuquio baptismal records from Mar 1788 through June 1789.
Does anyone have any idea where Cuquio baptismal Libro 12 is?
GENEALOGIAS DE NOCHISTLAN ANTIGUO REINO DE LA NUEVA GALICIA...esta disponible en Borderlands Bookstore, San Antonio, Texas. El sitio de web de la tienda es www.borderlandsbooks.com. El numero de telefono es 210-647-7535.
I found several baptisms in Santa Maria church in Los Remedios, Durango, some at la Capilla del Forminil, giving the birthplaces as Forminil. But I was not able to find anything on the Internet about Forminil.
Finally, I found the 7 Oct 1901 baptismal record of Maria Guadalupe Rodriguez that records her birthplace as "Pinos altos (Forminil)". You can see this text at the very bottom of the left-hand page in the image at
familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HT-DWYC-2C?cc=1554576&wc=3PZQ-FMW
Pinos Altos is a very remote mountain town -- so remote that even now Google Maps "could not calculate driving directions" from Los Remedios to Pinos Altos.
Hi everyone,
I’m looking for records on Doroteo Sanchez and Micaela Morillo parents of Gregorio Sanchez born on the 8th of May 1814 in la Raíces, Arandas, Jalisco Mexico. I found the baptism record but can’t find anything more going back. Hoping someone has them on their family tree. I have attached the baptism record attached.
