Hello All. I was quite thrilled to find this website, as I have just recently started to research my son-in-law's family, which is Romo.

Welcome Walter to the Nuestrosranchos community. Like you, I am also experienced in researching New England Genealogy. I have a brother-in-law and a sister-in-law that descend from the original New England settlers. This past weekend my nephew, Robert Gregory Nash, married a descendant of New England settlers, so we now have three descendants of the original settlers in the family tree.

To Walter and Jorge,

I would like to add my two cents in response to Jorge’s post. I have not found any evidence that links Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar y Mendoza Marqués del Canete Eleonor de la Cerda y de Aragon to my Diego Romo de Vivar ancestor.

Hi Netchemist,
Yes, the Romo de Vivar are the ancestors of a lot of people from Aguascalientes, I also descend from both Diego Romo de Vivar y Rangel and Capitan Romo de Vivar y Rangel, both children from Capitan Diego Miguel Romo de Vivar y Perez de Utiel (who died on July 11th 1659). They had a lot of children and the names are repeated in several generations.
Here is a list of ancestors I have found, I don’t have a lot of documents but I have found these persons using data from My Heritage and Family Search.
Capitan Diego Miguel Romo de Vivar y Perez de Utiel was the son of
• Diego Romo de Vivar Ponce de Leon born in 1550 in Rielves and died on Nov 7th, 1610, married to Catalina Perez de Utiel, born in Rielves on March 12 1564. Son of:
• Diego Maria Romo de Vivar Lopez born in Feria, Badajoz, Extremadura in 1520, married to Catalina Ponce de Leon Fernandez y Castañeda born in Feria, Badajoz, Extremadura in 1525. Son of:
• Diego Romo de Vivar y Ponce de Leon, born in Manzanares el Real, Madrid on Nov, 3rd 1489, died in Toledo in 1536, married to Maria Lopez born in 1500. Son of:
• Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar y Mendoza Marqués del Canete, born in Guadalajara, Castilla in 1466, died in Valencia on Feb 22nd 1523, married to Eleonor de la Cerda y de Aragon, born in Guadalajara, Castilla in 1472, died in Jadraque Castle, Guadalajara, Castilla on April 8th 1497.
This data may help you to make more research around the Romo de Vivar. If you want I can share some more information about the Romo members around Aguascalientes. (They had up to 11 children each).

Jorge

Juan Felipe Cabral (Jerez de García Salinas) ca. 1760

Does anyone has information regarding Juan Felipe Cabral? He gave origin to the Cabral surname in Zacatecas, arriving ca.

Yes dear fguevara_robles, I have info on that subject and it is clearly a legend. No that Felipe Cabral didnot existed, but he was not Juan Felipe but Noverto Felipe and sure, he married Doña Josefa Saldivar, the daughter of Marcelo (or Marcelino) Saldivar and Juliana Felix (or De los Reyes Félix). It is dificult to precisely know when and how the legend started, but I think this was very likely a way to fill in a blank spot in the genealogy or a strange way to detach from the ancestry adding some spicy tale to it. I might understand that because at the time the legend was created people have not the resources we have now to do research from the comfort of home. Once, my aunt Cabral told me "that is just not true and my brothers invented that legend". When I first put online my tree, elaborated by my dad upon the family tales and memories, a tree that started exactly with the "Juan Felipe Cabral, born in Portugal in the first quarter of the XVIII century, very soon I got an email from Salvador Cabral Valdez, showing interest in my tree and then we started a fruitfull exchange that lasted few years. This exchange started in the year 2006 and the first subject was precisely about Juan Felipe. He suggested that probaly he was not from Portugal and then draw my attention to the Family Search website and showed me a registar of Felipe Cabral marriage with Josefa Saldivar. That was a real discovery for me that proved beyond doubt that Juan Felipe, the portuguese, was in fact Felipe Noverto, born in Jerez in 1748, the son of Hermenegildo Cabral and Thomasa Hernández (Fernández) and then married Josefa Saldivar in 1775. Further research over the following years proved also that he belonged to the Cabral line started by Domingo Cabral and Ana Catalina Pinedo Caldera. One of the youngest sons of them was Bartolomé, born around 1647 and later married Melchora de los Reyes. One of their sons was Nicolás Cabral, who later married Marta de la Encarnación around 1710 more or less. One of their sons was Hermenegildo, who married Thomasa Fernández in 1739 and lived then in el Puesto del Sotano, Jerez. They were the parents of Vitalia, Rosalía and Felipe Noverto Cabral.

Some in the family received these news as great news, others feel a little deceived knowing no portuguese Juan Felipe existed, but that is the true and we cannot do anything about. As for myself I felt very happy to be able to track the roots that far.

Many years later, Salvador Cabral Valdez gave me some news: he found that Domingo Cabral was the son of Juan Cabral Rodriguez, a "gambusino" from Galicia, that arrived to the Jerez area in 1588 and married a native woman around 1600. But that is another story and I would love to get into it in a new post. Was this Juan Cabral from Galicia the origin of the tale you bring forth? We cannot discard it, but cannot assert it neither. I hope to comeback to the subject soon.

In response to Danny Alonso I have seen his christening record of Balbino Cabral, the son of Pedro Cabral and Teresa Ortis, and while I have not found anything that points to Pedro's parents, in this record his "padrinos" are "Meregildo" Cabral and María Isabel de la Torre and that can be an important clue. Clearly "Meregildo" is Hermenegildo, sometimes also Esmeregildo. Being Cabral clearly is a relative, maybe the brother of Pedro, an important thing is that María Isabel de la Torre is the wife of Juan Antonio Cabral Ubillos, and he had a son whose name was Hermenegildo. My hipothesis here is that Hermenegildo is the brother of Pedro Cabral and María Isabel de la Torre the mother of Pedro Cabral. There is another Hermenegildo Cabral, my direct ancestor, who was the first cousin of Juan Antonio Cabral Ubillos and this one was his "padrino" in the marriage of my Hermenegildo, I mention this just to stress the importance of the "padrinos" as clue for finding relationships. If my hipothesis is correct, Pedro was then the grandchild of Juan Cabral Rodarte, grandson of Domingo Cabral. In other words: Domingo Cabral >> Juan Cabral Pinedo >> Juan Cabral Rodarte >> Juan Antonio Cabral Ubillos >> Pedro Cabral de la Torre. More research needs to be done to confirm or discard this, but I thing is worth to consider it as plausible. Saludos.

Comentario

Wow, thank you so much. This is great information. I've only recently started doing genealogy again after a few years so it'll take me a little bit to get back into things. I do know that I think I have the records of three children but the records don't really show anything. Nothing that would point in any particular direction. But this hypothesis makes sense and I initially had this as the probable direction but now it seems even more so.

Danny

Comentario

In family search I already put Pedro Cabral as son of Juan Antonio. I know is an hipothesis but it doesn't hurt to have it there while more info appears.
Another clue: Pedro Cabral's full name was Pedro Antonio, then it makes sense with the habit of naming a son with some of the father name, in this case Juan Antonio.

Comentario

If your Cabral gave origin to the Cabral name, he must've come before 1760. I have a Pedro Cabral married to Theresa Ortiz and theyre both from Jerez de Garcia Salinas, Zacatecas, Mexico, but, they would've been born before your Juan Felipe Cabral probly close to 20 years before your cabral. they were born sometime in the 1740s. But i want to know about your Cabral cause if he is the first Cabral, he may be the father of my Cabral. Do you know who he was married to?

Danny C. Alonso

Comentario

Yes, he was married to Josefa Saldivar in 1760 in Jerez de Garcia Salinas. So far I know they had 10 children with the names: Francisca, Juan José, Josefa María, Nepomuceno, Pantaleon (my direct ancestor), Dionicia, Castulo, and María. I also have another record that he might be related to Esmeregildo Cabral and Tomasa Hernandez, but I'm not very sure about this.

Comentario

Maybe my Pedro Cabral is a brother to your Juan Felipe Cabral, because my
Pedro Cabral and Theresa Ortiz are having children in the 1760s so my Pedro
Cabral is about the same age as your Juan Felipe Cabral and theyre both
from Jerez de Garcia.

no i dont know anything about him. i only have their names from the birth
of their grandaughter Maria Estafana garcia:

https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:939N-LKP7-V

but if you look on family search you can see that Pedro Cabral and Theresa
Ortiz had children in the early 1760s so he has to be close in age to your
person.

Here are two interesting court cases that may shed light on the ancestry of Pedro Yanguas and on the identity of the mother of Ana Carillo De Peralta Regada and of her half sister Ana De Peralta

First Case:
* Título: 
PEDRO DE YANGUAS Y ANA CARRILLO DE PERALTA contra GASTON DE PERALTA
* Serie: 
Procesos judiciales. Ochoa-Sentenciados
* Productor: 
CORTE MAYOR DE NAVARRA
* Fechas: 
1547.01.28 - 1547.08.12
* Lugar:
LOGROÑO - LA RIOJA - ESPAÑA
FALCES - NAVARRA - ESPAÑA
* Contenido: 
Pedro de Yanguas, regidor perpetuo de la ciudad de Logroño, y Ana Carrillo de Peralta, su mujer, contra Gaston de Peralta, marques de Falces, sobre entrega de 2.000 ducados de dote ofrecidos en el testamento de Alfonso Carrillo de Peralta, marques de Falces.

Second case:

Título: ANA DE PERALTA contra GASTON DE PERALTA
Serie: Procesos judiciales. Solano-Pendientes
Productor: CONSEJO REAL DE NAVARRA
Fechas: 1547.12.02 - 1553.12.31
Lugar:
Traibuenas - MURILLO EL CUENDE - NAVARRA - ESPAÑA
Rada - MURILLO EL CUENDE - NAVARRA - ESPAÑA
Contenido: Ana de Peralta, mujer de Tristan de Mauleon, señor de Traibuenas y Rada, contra Gaston de Peralta, su hermano, marques de Falces, sobre pago de 10.000 ducados de dote.
Características:
342 Folios
Referencia ES/NA/AGN/F017/086296

I would assume that the larger dote is for the legitimate daughter Ana, and the smaller dote for the illegitimate daughter Ana but that isn’t always the case. Sometimes the illegitimate children are given more.

I descend also from Villaseñor, but unfortunately I have not been able to go further beyond José Nicolás and Teresa Ramirez that married in Bolaños in 1778, then their first daughter Victoriana was born in Tlaltenango in 1779, the second daughter Estefana was born in 1780 in Teul and then José George in Ojo Caliente around 1783. This one married Inocencia Colunga in 1812, in San Francisco Villa de Reyes, SLP and had 8 or so sons and one or two daughters, my tatarabuelo Canuto Villaseñor Colunga was one of his sons, born in 1821 and he then moved to Guanajuato, where the family stayed for the next generations.
I have not been able to find the parents of Nicolas Villaseñor, the marriage record doesn't make any mention of them and the Información Matrimonial seems to be in a lost book, and the only possible Padrón of Bolaños is from 1770 and they don't appear there, so I guess it is going to be very difficult to go past them. But who knows, maybe somebody here have a hint or tip to follow.

Comentario

Yes, but padrinos names have no clue. I am now finding some books on informacion matrimonial that may have theirs, but going page by page is slow. I am interested in this line because the Villaseñor name is in my mother name, but from my father I descend directly from Aldonza de Villaseñor y Avalos, married to Juan Dozal Madriz, although the Villaseñor name didnot lasted long. It is certainly a family that have spread wide thru Jalisco and Michoacán mostly. Most of my family lines, as well as a lot of friends, have Villaseñor in their trees.

Comentario

Dear Manny,

I felt that it was time to stop adding new information, stop researching other lines, and just focus on writing and publishing a book. I have more than enough information to get the book done but you had to throw a wrench in my plans.

The line that I had put together was based on me trying to make sense of the data in front of me, but since most genealogist had a different line I did not pull more threads since it was only possible in my mind and not proven. When you provided information that debunked the line of the other genealogists you made me look at my information again in a different light because it was no longer an exercise in making sense of what I had before me but the line with the highest probability of being the actual true lineage. This set into motion working all afternoon and night gathering more information and putting all the pieces together. It is so much information, and I need to review it after some sleep, so I won't post the findings at this time. What you have done is made relevant all the the information that I had collected when I had mistakenly believed that Sancho Sanchez el comendador was the same person as Sancho Sanchez Señor de Arnedo. Once it had been proved that they were not the same person, I had felt a sense of loss for all the time I had spent deciphering that tangled ancestral web. But now that time isn't wasted because your information connects one of my family lines to that tangled web. Your one little piece that didn't seem of much importance was the last straw that moved a mountain.

A million thanks,
Rick A. Ricci

Hi Rick,

Ha! Well, here's another wrench - I sifted through some other notes, and found some more puzzle pieces with the target surnames. These are my raw notes, I haven't researched every document, since they tend to be 100+ pages long.

Comentario

Dear Manny,

Thanks for the info. The more puzzle pieces we add to the puzzle the greater the probability we have of visualizing how the pieces fit together. You never know when a seemingly insignificant piece actually is the glue that brings a line together. There are many pieces involving the Villaseñor-Orosco, Boccanegra, Delgadillo, Davalos, Cervantes family lines These families intermarried over centuries so we are working on all of these lines at the same time. As long as we keep plugging away, every once a while we will connect a line to the first immigrants. The piece that you provided that lead to solving the Cuevas Villaseñor line still has me in a state of euforia. I am beyond cloud nine. Your little puzzle piece hit two birds with one stone. It solved my Regina Ines Cuevas Villaseñor line, while also leading me to work overtime on figuring out the Coría Peralta conundrum. Regina Ine's line is very important to me personally because it connects me to two lines that I have been working on in Italy and Europe that go back many centuries, with many interesting stories.

Thanks again,
Rick A. Ricci

Hi Rick,

You're welcome, and here's another batch of puzzle pieces. There might be dupes from my last posts - there's just so many, it's hard to keep track. Most of these are from Arquidiocesis de Morelia, but there might be some from Sagrada Mitra. This oughta keep you busy for a while!

Saludos!

Muchas gracias por compartir todos esos links,son una gran aportación.
He revisado algunos y por lo pronto solo quiero apuntar que el film que habla sobre Joseph de Alcocer, criador de ganado mayor en Penjamo menciona a su mamá, la cual se llamaba Guiomar Dávalos Bocanegra.
A esta Guiomar yo la tengo como hija de Pedro de Bocanegra Cervantes Villaseñor casado con María Verdugo
Guiomar fue hermana de María Delgadillo casada con José de Villaseñor Figueroa

A María Verdugo la tengo como hija de Alonso Avalos Saavedra y María Delgadillo Avalos quienes casaron el 18-ago-1585

Comentario

Regina Villaseñor de la Cuevas’s descent from royalty through her Peralta ancestors.

A few notes labeled A through H before the tree.

Note A.
A small minority claim that García Martínez Peralta and Ana Sánchez Ruiz de Azagra are the parents of “Mosén Pierres de Peralta “el Viejo”.

Many people claim that 2.”Mosén Pierres de Peralta, el Viejo” was the illegitimate son of Charles II De Navarro d’ Evereaux.

Both are mistaken as their is an extra generation which shows that Mosen Pierre De Peralta “el Viejo” (Pedro Perez de Peralta) is a grandson of both García Martínez Peralta and Ana Sánchez Ruiz de Azagra and king Carlos II “el malo” and queen Juana De Francia

Note B
Geronimo Lopez “el Mozo” and his wife, Ana Carillo de Peralta came from the upper high class. Their immediate descendants married into other upper high class society like the Villaseñor, Lomelin, Santiago, Ovande, Alvarez Nuñez, Rivadeneyra, and Cervantes families to name some of them.

Note C
The Diego Coria III that marries a daughter of Geronimo Lopez el Mozo and his wife, Ana Carillo De Peralta, is a descendant, but not a son, of Conquistador Diego Coria I

Note D
I was only going to post a line of descent without any stories but decided to give a glimpse of the many stories to go along with this family tree. One of the stories involve the French civil war between descendants of the same woman, but from different fathers. She was forced to separate from her first husband because they were too closely related. It was mainly because of jealousy and politics that there was a complaint. Since she was forced to separate from her husband, she marries marries a second husband and has more children. Then the jealousy and politics really come to a boiling point as now she is being accused of bigamy by the people who said that her first marriage wasn’t valid. She provided for separate inheritances of the two families, but eventually her descendants are involved in a big civil war that involves much of France. There are many other interesting stories like a Frenchman being held prisoner in London by his distant cousin, the Black Prince Of England. While he was under lock and key, he played chess and socialized with his distant cousin. There is also a connection that contributes to France backing Enrique II in its civil war between King Pedro the Cruel of Castilla and his half brother, Enrique II.

Note E
One of the ancestors, the Cardinal, is deeply involved in the politics in Castilla. He becomes a big enemy of King Ferdinand II of Aragon, the Catholic King..

Note F
Many of these people have multiple marriages, but I tried to only list the spouses that are the biological parents.

Note G
There are many lines of ancestry to kings of France, Navarra, Castilla, Leon, and England.

Note H
This Villaseñor line that Regina descends from is related to a Villaseñor D' Avalos line. Regina’s maternal grandfather, Jose de Villaseñor Figueroa, was married twice . Through his first marriage to Maria Delgadilla y Bocanegra D'avalos you have a line of descent that used Villaseñor D'avalos. Regina Villaseñor descends from the second marriage so she doesn't have D'avalos in her ancestry.

Regina Villaseñor de la Cuevas’s descent from royalty through her Peralta ancestors.

1. Charles II the bad Rey De Navarra and Juana De Francia o De Valois
2. Pierre de Nabarra Evreux, conde de Mortain (b. 31/Mar/1366, Évreux, Eure, Normandy, France; d. 29/July/1412) with Mistress Ana Martinez De Peralta (daughter of García Martínez Peralta and Ana Sánchez Ruiz de Azagra) Pierre is married to another woman.
3. Pierre Perez De Peralta, señor De Aldonsilla, (known as “Mossen (Monsegneur) Pierre” [consejero real] Aka “Mosén Pierres de Peralta “el Viejo”. In 1416 he is named "ricohombre” in Navarra. Acting ambassador in París (1398, 1404, 1408 y 1409) in the conflict between the "armagnacs" y "borgoñones". Ambassador in Castilla (1412) and Aragón (1413 - 1414), ] ( He is often confused with his father, situation which repeats with his son “el menor or el joven”) [el mozo is more often reserved for “junior” and el menor or el joven is more often used for the third in line with similar names, ] He is married to Juana Ezpeleta y Garro, ( daughter of Ogier de Garo y Chatillon and Juana Ezpleta y Echauz, señora De Ezpleta)
4. Pedro, Mosen Pierres “el Joven” de Peralta y Ezpeleta, conde de santisteban. He is often confused with his father as he continued his father’s work as key advisor to the king of Navarra. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a6/MosenPierresFoto.JPG. First marriage: 27/Dec/1440 in “el Palacio Real de Olite” with Ana de Brabante, illegitimate daughter of Antonio de Borgoña. Aka Antonio De Brabante, duque de Brabante, Lothier y Limburgo, conde de Rethel,
5. Juana Peralta Regado m 22/Nov1467 with Troilo (o Zoilo) Carrillo (conde de Augusta, in Italy, illegitimate son of Cardenal Alonso Carrillo de Acuña
6. Alonso de Carrillo De Peralta, I marqués de Falces (b. circa 1450, married first wife Ana Velasco y Padilla ( daughter of Luis Fernandez De Velasco y Manrique De Lara and Ana De Padilla y Manrique De Lara.
7. Antonio de Peralta, II marqués de Falces (d.1545) 2° marqués de Falces, 4° conde de Santisteban de Lerín, señor de la baronía de Peralta, consejero de los reyes de Navarra, mayordomo mayor de la Casa real, m. 17/Dec/1514 Ana de Bosquet y Lucy, señora de Tornay, daughter of Jean (Juan) de Bosquet, barón de Pouget en Bearne, gran canciller de Navarra and. Ana de Lucy, señora de Belaire. Antonio had two children with another woman. One of these other children was also named Ana. The two Anas married and both sued their brother for their “dote” as it seems their father had passed away at the time of their marriages. Both these lawsuits are archived and if we could read them then we would find out which of the two Anas descends from Ana Bosquet y Lucy, and which descends from the other woman. The lawsuits may even tell us the name of the other woman. These documents are presently unavailable for review.
8. Ana Carrillo de Peralta (Regado was part of the surname with some of the women, sometimes it is spelled a little differently but lost my notes with the other spelling) married Pedro de Yanguas, regidor perpetuo de la ciudad de Logroño.
9. Ana Carillo De Peralta (named after her mother) married Geronimo Lopez “el mozo” (born in 1537) (Tesorero Real y Regidor, takes the position over after his father retires), [son of Geronimo Lopez “el viejo” (b.1488) (Also Tesorero Real y Regidor), and Catalina Alvarez De Cabrera (descendant of the house of David; she has an ancestor that is a sister of a famous Jewish theologian that became a Catholic Theologian.] This is Geronimo el mozo’s second marriage out of three.
10. María Peralta Regado Mendoza marries Diego Coria, Maria becomes a widow at an early age and becomes a nun before her father writes his will.
11. Coria Peralta ( the source is not clear as to whether #12Manuel is the son or grandson of #10Diego Coria And María Perlata Regado Mendoza
12. Manuel Coria Peralta Regado m. ca. 1630 to Catalina Lomelin (bap. 17/May/1607) (daughter of Luciano (Luis) Lomelin and Maria Del Olmo
13. Bernarda Lomelin Peralta (bap. 25/Oct/1632) Chilchota, Michoacan m. José de Villaseñor y Figueroa
14. María De Villaseñor y Lomelin m. Francisco de Cuevas Carvajal y Monjarás (son of de Don Pedro de Cuevas y Carvajal y de Doña Josepha de Solís y Monjarás)
15. Regina Villaseñor AKA Regina de la Cueva m. to Miguel De Hermosillo (Miguel Gonzalez De Hermosillo, Luis Miguel De Hermosilo, Miguel Muñoz de Hermosillo)

Update:
Many genealogists have concluded that Regina and Ynes are two different people and not one person. If they are different people then they are sisters as they have the same parents.

Dear Manny,

The data you provided, in addition to what we already have, leads me to believe that there is a high probability that we will find The parents of Gonzalo de Avalos Tovar de Villaseñor and Antonia Hurtado de Mendoza in Michoacán records.

Here is a previous post that is about "San Miguel de Los Alva" and also mentions Cristóbal Villaseñor:

By Xayme - Posted on 22 February 2009

While I was in Mexico several years ago I looked desperately this place. Anyone familiar with the area know that there are several "San Miguels" in the "nuestros ranchos" area. I went to all of them. Or at least I thought I did.

It wasn't until I came back to the U.S. did I come in contact with a distant cousin who happens to be a historian for Encarnacion de Diaz. I'm extremely thankful to him for the help he's given me and for his research. He also helped me find THEE San Miguel mentioned in my ancestors records. I also have photos if anyone is interesed. I hope this information can help someone else doing research in the same area.

If you have ties to this place or have more data on it's inhabitants during the 1600s please conatct me. This the part of my research where I have hit a dead end.

The following is an exerpt from an email my cousin Arq. Rodolfo H. Hernandez Ch sent me:
==================================================================

San Miguel de los Alba is located at the foot of the cerro de los Gallos, in the current municipality of Encarnacion de Diaz, and it is not the same San Miguel that is mentioned in the Llanos del Tecuan, neither is it the same San Miguel that you located in a map and belongs to the state of Queretaro.

El puesto de San Miguel de los Alba was founded at the beginning of the XVII century, when it belonged to Alonso of Alba, married to Doña Leonor de Retamosa, daughter of Nicolas Macias and Leonor de Retamosa who were proprietors of extensive lands in the actual municipality of Encarnación.

This hacienda or puesto de San Miguel de los Alba, depended on the village of the Asuncion de las Aguascalientes and their inhabitants were obligated to be baptized, married and buried in the parish of this village (you can know who lived their by checking the microfilms of the Iglesia del Sagrario de Aguascalientes, corresponding to the XVII and XVIII century). In 1752 a chapel was built dedicated to San Miguel Arcangel in this hacienda, with donations from Miguel de Alba and Cristobal Villaseñor, beginning to beginning to function as a vicariate, carrying books and registrations of baptisms that were made until the year of 1778, date in which said hacienda goes on to form part of the parish of in that passes this country property to be part of the parish of Nuestra Señora de la Encarnacion de los Macias (before named el Sauz de los Macias)

After the death of Don Alonso Alva, his hacienda continued in ownership by his descendants, the Alva family, until the begingings of the century. XX. during this time the residents and surnames grew through marriage connections.

And all were devoted to the agriculture and and cattle raising to supply the trade with the north of the country.

I had originally posted that I was not a descendant of the Villaseñor De Avalos. I was wrong. My ancestor Cristobal Villaseñor is a descendant of a Villaseñor de Avalos line. The other Villaseñor lines, of which there are a few, would not fit the time frame. I had originally only researched other Villaseñor lines. I only started researching the Villaseñor De Avalos connections to help out with Manny's research. This research has been useful in figuring out what I believe are the earliest connection between these two families as Gonzalo De Avalos Villaseñor Tovar could only descend from one of two possible connections as he was born before all the other Villaseñor and De Avalos marriages. This is based on information collected from my Manny's, Chris's, Danny's and my research, and the information in "Retonos de España en la Nueva Galicia" by Mariano Gonzalez Leal. There are many pieces to this puzzle and I believe that I have put together two possible lines of descent.

Marcelina posted different great grandparents from the great grandparents listed by Mariano Gonzalez Leal. She found a tree that someone else had compiled. If the line that Marcelina found is correct then neither one of these two lines is correct.

Here are the two possible lines of descent:

First possible line

1). Alfonso Fernandez Villaseñor and Elvira Osórez (daughter of Fernando Osórez maestro de Santiago)

2). Fernan A. Villaseñor and Aldonza Gutierrez de Tapia

3). Diego Villaseñor alcaide de Segovía married to Maria Serones (Seron)(Seronis)

4). Juan Villaseñor Serones and Elvira de Tovar y Enriquez de Castilla

5). Diego de Villaseñor-Tovar and Isabel Alfonso de Villaseñor

6). Diego Villaseñor-Tovar"de Burgos" (b.1442 and d.1520) and Guiomar de Orosco y Sandoval

7). Juan de Villaseñor-Tovar y Orosco (b.1500) and Catalina Cervantes y Lara de Andrada

----------------------

*8). Diego de Villaseñor-Tovar Orosco (bap 15/Apr/1543 and d.1610) y Cervantes and Jeronima d' Avalos y Gomez (m. abt. 1568)

----------------------

9). Gonzalo de Avalos Tovar de Villaseñor and Antonia Hurtado de Mendoza

10) Gonzalo de Villaseñor Cervantes (b. Abt 1621) (m. 26/Sept/1650) and Juana Gomez de Espejo

11). Gonzalo Villaseñor Y Gomez (b. Abt 1660) ( buried 6/Aug/1733) and Teresa de Alva Bocanegra (m. March 1683, Aguascalientes)

12) Cristóbal Villaseñor y Alva ( bap. 7/Sept/1688 Aguascalientes) and Gertrudis Franco de Paredes.

Note: Cristobal had multiple marriages.he was also married to Maria Perez Luxan (Lujan). He may also have been married to Gertrudis Olmedo but I have not confirmed this. If he was married to Gertrudis Olmedo then she would have been the first marriage, with Juana Gertrudis Franco de Paredes the second, and Maria Perez de Luxan (Lujan) being the third marriage.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Second possible line:

1). Alfonso Fernandez Villaseñor and Elvira Osórez (daughter of Fernando Osórez maestro de Santiago)

2). Fernan A. Villaseñor and Aldonza Gutierrez de Tapia

3). Diego Villaseñor alcaide de Segovía married to Maria Serones (Seron)(Seronis)

4). Juan Villaseñor Serones and Elvira de Tovar y Enriquez de Castilla

5). Diego de Villaseñor-Tovar and Isabel Alfonso de Villaseñor

6). Diego Villaseñor-Tovar"de Burgos" (b.1442 and d.1520) and Guiomar de Orosco y Sandoval

7). Juan de Villaseñor-Tovar y Orosco (b.1500) and Catalina Cervantes y Lara de Andrada

8) Juan de Villaseñor Cervantes and Catalina Gonzales Corona (Catalina Corona)

*9). Gonzalo de Villaseñor (b abt 1540) y Cervantes and Maria Zuniga

*10) Gonzalo de Villaseñor Orosco y Zuñiga and Aldonsa de Avalos e Hijar

------------------

11) Gonzalo de Avalos Tovar de Villaseñor and Antonia Hurtado de Mendoza

12). Gonzalo de Villaseñor Cervantes (b. Abt 1621) (m. 26/Sept/1650) and Juana Gomez de Espejo

13) Gonzalo Villaseñor Y Gomez (b. Abt 1660) ( buried 6/Aug/1733) and Teresa de Alva Bocanegra (m. March 1683, Aguascalientes)

14). Cristóbal Villaseñor y Alva ( bap. 7/Sept/1688 Aguascalientes) and" Gertrudis Franco de Paredes. Cristobal had multiple marriages.

Thanks,
Rick A. Ricci

Villaseñor D'Avalos and Villaseñor Lomelin connection
Submitted by R.A.Ricci on Fri, 2016-07-08 22:42.
Your welcome Manny and Chris,
I was trying to be helpful without any serious thought that I would be adding or changing information in my tree. It seems that I am being rewarded for helping out. There may be a change in my Villaseñor Lomelin line because of this research.

I have been digging deeper into the Villaseñor and D'Avalos connection. I found some interesting information on the Villaseñor family. This is from a secondary source but the author provides primary sources that I need to go back and check. There is a big implication for my family tree if this information is correct.

I had been researching the Villaseñor and Avalos connection without being a descendant of the Avalos line. I descend from the Villaseñor Lomelin family. In my research of the Avalos and Villaseñor I found that The web of the Avalos and Villaseñor is providing new information that is a little different than some of the information on the Villaseñor that we have taken for granted because genealogists from a long time ago had stated that so and so was the daughter of "Fulano". If this new information is correct, then my ancestor is not the great granddaughter of Luis (Luciano) Lomelin(i) and Maria del Olmo. This new information adds another generation so she is a great great granddaughter of Luis (Luciano) Lomelin(i) and Maria del Olmo. It also adds another generation in my Villaseñor line. I need time to look up all the primary sources to see if this is true. This is going to take some time. It may also ruffle some feathers because two prominent genealogists have different information in their books that many people, myself included, had taken as fact.

If this new information is true then I descend from a second wife of a Villaseñor after his first wife D'Avalos dies, and I am even more closely related to the D'Avalos Villaseñors. Like you said, there is a lot of information to be processed. One D'Avalos and Villaseñor line intermarried for four generations before finally marrying outside of the family.

R.A.Ricci

I am also descended from Toribio and Gertrudis. You would be my cousin albeit a distant one so nice to meet you. I have read many of your post on nuestro ranchos so some of your info has been helpful for me. The only fact that I know getrudis existed was a that I found a death record with just her first name and stating cristobal villasenor was her husband in aguascalientes.

Hi Rick,

I was going through my notes, and came upon the following entries, which I wish to contribute to this thread. These I pulled from the Archdiocese of Michoacan rolls, I hope you can find them useful.

Dear Manny,

The main reason that I never finish writing a book is that new information keeps popping up. I often am working on some specific research when I come across some information that is an important puzzle piece to a different research project. Although you provided this information as a possible help in the research on Cristobal Villaseñor, the pieces you are providing are helping me with two other research projects.

The information you are providing looks like it will help me in my Villaseñor Cueva Lomelin line. The second line of research that your information is helpful is in my research on my de Hijar lines.

What does the HaLa mean in "HaLa Francisco Villasenor cc Ynes Nunez del Rincon"?

Thank you for all your help,
Rick A. Ricci

Comentario

Hi Rick,

I'm happy to hear it helps. I'm sorry, I cut & pasted from my notes, and I have some personal abbreviations: "HaLa" is for "hija legitima," and "HL" would be "hijo legitimo." Others I use are "DTO" id "difunto"; "tt" is "testigos"; "pp" is "padrinos"; "Ldo" is "licenciado"; "Ber" is "bachiller."

These surnames are on my radar, and I will continue to log them, as I find them.

Saludos!
Manny Diez Hermosillo

Comentario

Manny,

did these ordenes get you closer to connecting the Avalos brothers to the Villasenor or Avalos y Villasenor families?

Danny C. Alonso

Comentario

Dear Danny,

It does not. The dispensas provides information in a different area of the Villaseñor family puzzle.

//////://////////////

Dear Manny,

The information provided on Francisco de Villasenor y Lomelin Bernal is important in my research. He was a possible ancestor but if he is a priest then he cannot be the one Francisco de Villasenor that I find married and having children.

Thanks,

Rick A. Ricci

Comentario

Dear Danny,

This Villaseñor line that Regina descends from is related to a Villaseñor D' Avalos line.
Jose de Villaseñor Figueroa was married twice . Through his first marriage to Maria Delgadilla y Bocanegra D'avalos you have a line of descent that used Villaseñor D'avalos. Regina Ines Villaseñor descends from the second marriage so she doesn't have D'avalos in her ancestry.

Thanks,
Rick A. Ricci

Comentario

Dear Manny,

One of my ancestors is Regina Ines Villaseñor y Cuebas. Her parents are in dispute. Some genealogists claim that she descends from the Francisco Villaseñor in your post. But based on all the information that I have at hand, I had constructed a different ancestry for her. Your post actually supports my work and clears up this mess as the alternate line is not valid unless that Francisco had a marriage before or after he became a priest.

The probability that this line that I had posted here on nuestrosranchos is valid just went up by leaps and bounds..

I have already connected another line of mine to the Viilaseñors but it was through the brother so it did not include the Cervantes. Regina descends from the Villaseñor Cervantes line, but the ancestry with Francisco didn't make sense to me given the information that I possessed as it led me to construct this alternate line. This line does show descent from the Villaseñor Cervantes line which is very important as I have continued the ancestry of the Cervantes to two thousand years through one line and through an Italian line well over one thousand years. These lines of descent are very solid as they are two lines with much history and are families with written records that can be checked.

Comentario

Dear Manny,

One thank you wasn't enough. The data you provided seems like just a little piece of the puzzle but in reality it is a big piece as it reinforces that the descent that other genealogists have proposed is not true and that this is the line of descent that fits with all of the information that I have.

Some of my information is based on some of Mariano Gonzalez Leal's work. I am relying on Mariano Gonzalez Leal's for a couple of generations and added it to other pieces of the puzzle that I already have.

Hola Richard:

Yo creo que si puede ser el mismo Cristóbal que haya estado un tiempo en Guanajuato, estas familias tenían propiedades en varios lugares del país.

En mi familia tengo un caso parecido: uno de mis tíos nació en 1918 y su madre murió después del parto. Después de un año el padre se casó con una mujer de familia importante y volvieron a registrarlo en 1919. Mi tío tenía dos actas de nacimiento. Sus hijos veían que visitaba una tumba de una mujer pero nunca les dijo nada, llevaba el apellido de la segunda esposa.

Todo esto era un secreto y sus hijos lo descubrieron recientemente, casi 100 años después.
Gertrudis murió en Aguascalientes y se señala que es esposa de Cristóbal Villaseñor y que vivían en el puesto de San Miguel, en Aguascalientes.

México, Aguascalientes, registros parroquiales, 1620-1962, database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:N87P-B2K : 27 July 2015), Christobal Villaseñor in entry for Gertrudis, ; citing Death, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes, Aguascalientes, Mexico, parroquias Católicas, Aguascalientes (Catholic church parishes, Aguascalientes).

Creo que es más que una coincidencia que Gertrudis Villaseñor haya sido bautizada poco tiempo después de la muerte de la Gertrudis a que se refiere el registro citado.

Saludos

Marcelina

Comentario

Hola Richard:

Creo que a Gertrudis se le cambió el apellido por la muerte de su madre, te expongo mi hipótesis.

La primera parte pertenece al árbol genealógico IN81-70K de Familysearch:

Juan de Villaseñor- Catalina de Cervantes

Francisco de Villaseñor Cervantes- Leonicia González y Reuss

Miguel de Villaseñor - María Figueroa

Gonzalo de Villaseñor- Juana Gomez

Gonzalo de Villaseñor- Theresa de Alba y Estrada Bocanegra
(Puruándiro, Michoacan 1636)
A partir de aquí son registros de Familysearch de Aguascalientes.

Gonzalo y Theresa se casan en Aguascalientes en 1683 M60484-5
son padres de
1685 Rosa María
1688 7 de septiembre Cristóbal
1692 Juan Mathias
1695 Lucía
1703 Gonzalo
Cristóbal se casa con Gertrudis de Olmedo, posiblemente mestiza.

Tienen una hija llamada Francisca Thomasa en Celaya el 22 de septiembre de 1722 (C60591-8) mestiza.

La hipótesis consiste en que tuvieron otra hija, en éste caso Gertrudis, pero la madre también Gertrudis muere el 7 de julio de 1724. ¿podría haber muerto de parto?

A partir de sus muerte pudieron ponerle a la hija otro apellido.

En fin, es una hipótesis que habría que comprobar, pero si liga a Gertrudis con la familia Villaseñor.
Saludos

Marcelina

Informacíon que tengo en mis Nota's sobre Cristobal Villaseñor:

Cristobal Villaseñor fue Teniente alcalde de "San Miguel de Los Alba" que ahora pertence a Encarnacion de Diaz "La Chona". El fue dueño de varias propiedadas que ahora pertencen a Tepatitlan y Jalostotitlan. Cristobal Villaseñor nacio en Aguascalientes.

El se caso dos veces, la primera ves con Gertrudis Franco de Paredes y la segunda ves con Maria Perez Luxano

Yo desciendo del primer matrimonio. De su primer matrimonio nacío Juana "Ana" Gertrudis Villaseñor y Franco de Paredes. Juana "Ana" Gertrudis de Villaseñor y Franco de Paredes fue bautizada el 6/Aug/1724. Su esposo, Joseph Thoribio Muñoz de la Barba fue bautizado el 28/Apr/1718 en San Juan de los Lagos. El murio el 22//Nov/1779. Juana "Ana" Gertrudis y Joseph Thoribio se casaron el 9/Oct/1743.

Del segundo matrimonio tuvo por lo menos dos hijos, a) Maria Rosalia Villaseñor Luxano bautizada el 23/Apr/1746, y b) Juan de Villaseñor que se caso con Rosalia de la Trinidad Muñoz de la Barba

Comentario

Hola Marcelina,

El Cristobal Villaseñor que yo busco nacio en Aguascalientes y algunos genealogos lo tienen como hijo de Gonzalo de Villaseñor- Theresa de Alba y Estrada Bocanegra.
(Puruándiro, Michoacan 1636)

Gertrudis Franco de Paredes no es la misma que se llama Gertrudis Olmedo. Puede ser que Cristobal tuvo tres esposas. El Cristobal Villaseñor que estaba casado con Gertrudis Olmedo vivia en Guanajuato.

El Cristobal Villaseñor casado con Gertrudis Franco de Paredes tambien se caso con Maria Perez Luxano (Lujano).

Gracias,

Tree Trolls - Adding profiles here to prevent new comers from perpetuating mistakes.

Comentarios

Comentario

I have had a couple of interactions with this user over the last two years, both around my 5th great-grandfather, Pedro de los Reyes and his son, Vicente Irineo Reyes, and grandson Jose Eustaquio Reyes. I'd spent a ton of time compiling records and putting this family together, tying in original sources (before they had them indexed, even), and making sure that everyone was documented. In the course of one day, this user destroyed all of that work and took everyone apart as family.

Then when confronted about it, and clearly showing that the changes were made by them, they denied it and claimed it was others ruining their work. Whoever the person has said to me on more than one occasion that they live in California. They have also asked, more than once, if I am a member of the LDS church, which makes me feel almost certain that they are a church member. In one of our exchanges, she referred to a user "Nuestro Ranchos" that was making changes and stated her opinion that this was a company based out of Anaheim. The biggest thing that I've noticed is that they are very protective of their "work" because they will place notes in the bios of people telling others not to touch and to "RESPECT" their ancestors. Meanwhile, I'm asking for her to provide proof of what she has, but to no avail.

Comentario

Thank you for pointing this out. I have seen Mbarrena many times. She also wrote to me once, she said she was from California, I think and her name was Maria. That's all she would give me, when I asked her who her parents were etc, she just did not want to tell me. Thank you
Elma Ramos

Comentario

Hi Elma,

I wouldn't believe anything this person says, today I restore the information of 23 people in the FamilyTree, all messed up by "mbarrena" and find out that "AlejandraRizo1" does exactly the same, thus likely another "mbarrena"'s persona.

Also is distasteful that this person only goes after people she/he think were spaniards leaving untouched those who were indigenous, black or any other caste, and try to create (fictitiously) links with "kings" and other nobility names. which only demonstrates her/his supremacist poor mind.

Family Search hasn't done any thing about it, plenty of reports haven't ever made a change, I still reporting this person and encourage anyone else to do so, maybe one day the administrators will understand how useless that page is turning due to people like this.

Thank you for the comment Elma, goes to show how many people's work this person has affected.

Comentario

Hi there, FYI

I just found some other iD that this Mbarrena is using. I have been working onf the Ruiz de Esparza family and this is where I found some other ID. that belong to same person.

He or she has attached herself to different families. Cause on one she is my 11 cousin and on another she is my 12 cousins, I look it up and they are different families.

Comentario

Thanks for the alert about this. I find that I am relying on the FamilySearch trees less and less as I find more and more cases of inaccuracy.

FamilySearch allowed someone to change my step-father's record to show he had died when in fact he was still alive. While FamilySearch allowed that person to make this change without any oversight, they made me jump through hoops to verify that he was still alive so that I could change his record back to reality.

If I do look at FamilySearch, I accept nothing at all without verifying it on my own. And I see many cases of errors. I keep my master trees on Ancestry and allow no one else to modify it. I document all of the core persons' information, including writing research notes where the documents leave questions or are in conflict. The people at the periphery of my tree may be in various states of reliability, but people seeing my tree can count on solid ground for my core people. FamilySearch trees have no real way to prevent corruption, either intentional or not.

Comentario

Sadly that's very true.

Reality is that we all do make errors at some point, but these people I've mention do not made those errors, they purposely and with malice had change the information, thus I feel it is important not to let this folks "bury" again the information that we have found with many years of research and collaboration.

Comentario

I work a lot on family search and have noticed exactly that and it is a shame that people just mess around with records. Some are probably not made on purpose but out of different considerations, but some are clearly made on purpose. I think that is the price to pay in family search because it is an open, collaborative genealogical website and that is great to make conecctions with other results and trees. I try to watch my relevant trees and every once in a while I have to make corrections in both cases (trolls and innacurate modifications) Since I have no proof of trolls I haven't keep their names. What I do is to keep my tree in geneanet https://en.geneanet.org/ which in my opinion is a great site because there are some profesionals that keep their work open to consult but not to modify. Family tree is very important to consult their microfilms.

Comentario

Totally agree, Family Search (their films) is definitely one of the best sources of information in the net, FamilyTree in the other hand had been lacking from the get go. I should check Geneanet.org, sounds like another option. Thanks for mentioning it.

First off, thanks Joseph for posting link to this Padron which has loads of valuable information. I came across this Padron years ago and forgot about it.

Looking through it, I had a question about other terms from this page (803)(https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSDG-4SGV?i=802&cat=68…)

"Chuiquitero" is it a worker who makes chiquihuites or hand woven baskets?

I recognize the other terms like "petatero" person who makes petates, labrador, etc... but never came across "chiquitero"

Also, at the top of page, what do they mean by "hijos tributarios"? Is this like volunteer work for the church in lieu of something?

Thanks

Ruben Rojas

Comentario

In my understanding Cas° means "casado" and Suh means "Su hijo" and Sumuj "Su mujer" then others means Su hermana, Su criada, su sirviente, su esclava etc... and then yes and clearly: "su cajero" but it is hard to guess what it actually means, probably there is business in the house and they take care of the accounts or something like that.

Comentario

1) cajero = merchant clerk

I get this from #12: https://bit.ly/2Y1hVyv

2) I agree with Esther -- what looks like "Fixuto or Fixoto or Sixoto" is sirv.ta, an abbreviation for sirvienta, a female servant. Riestra and Naredo are surnames I'm familiar with -- both have existed in Tlaltenango, for example. It's an N, because you can compare the way the letter is written to other H's and N's in the record. If you look at Nuñez and Herrera on the same page, you'll notice a subtle difference: with H's, there is a horizontal straight line through the middle of the letter. With N's, there is bow/curve and you can tell the pen was never lifted from the paper. Also, the same surname was written with a fairly legible "n" in the lower case.

Comentario

Hi Joseph,

For the one that you can't make out at the bottom, "Fixuto or Fixoto or Sixoto", I think it might be Sirvta (sirvieta). It's only on the female names and they do not have a last name. Just a thought.

Thank you,
Esther

Geneology How accurate are they?

I have recently done a genealogy test, where I sent some swabs with saliva via mail, and I received results that were a bit surprising. Well, very surprising to me, as a matter of fact.

Comentarios

Comentario

My understanding is that DNA test are very accurate, but one thing is the test and a completely different thing is the attribution of it to specific ethnicities and as has been said this is very estimative and not highly accurate because it depends on samples in data bases that may or may not be accurate and if there is not big differences in tests from one company to another, the interpretations are very fussy. That been said, the ethnicity attribution is just indicative and a good one. On the particular thing about andean native, probably there are similarities between north and southamerica, similarities that are evident. Also, exchanges between Mexico and Peru in colonial times were rather intense and the route between Acapulco and Callao was well trodden.

Comentario

Hi Cruzmeza,
I dont know which company you used for your DNA test. I made my DNA test with MyHeritage, my wife who is French and our grand-son did it also and the results are very logical.
I dont understand how you can have 12 percent Peruvian, unless the database used by your provider found that in Peru there are some people with the same genome as you which is a wrong way to determine your ancestry.
Normally less that 5 percent can be erroneous but 12 percent is strange.
Historically, the Peruvian conquest was organized from the Pacific coast of Mexico (I have some ancestors who died in Peru) but I dont have any information of bringing people from Peru to Mexico.
Regards.
Jorge

Comentario

DNA is as accurate as the availability of samples in existence, is still at some degree in its infancy, thus I wouldn't keep thinking around the results too much if they seem off. In an interview I heard on npr a while ago mentioned how inaccurate was when applied to genealogy, a lot of Hispanic, Asians and other non white groups kept getting European, and the reason was because those were the only samples they had, at some point many ethical groups will relate, but we are talking in the thousands of years.

If that specific place where you got tested doesn't had closer samples to compare with your DNA it will give you the closest possible even if in terms of genealogy, isn't really that close. Is obvious that all indigenous groups of the American continent will share DNA that comes from the days of the "Beringia" settlements, then it might be that is just the indigenous DNA of the Nueva Galicia area that happen to be similar to the Peruvian.

A acquaintance got some tests years ago, in one place got Asian, and in other got Hispanic, the only thing that changed was the last name used, this person is from the Philippines, thus even with samples, the companies simply assumed that those belonged to either or, when in fact was likely both. I don't know the details though, but again, don't stress too much for it, records finding still the most rewarding part genealogy. :)

Comentario

RJQ, hat would make sense. I guess we still have ways to go in genetic history research. My thought about these results was that perhaps some Peruvians came to Mexico in the Nueva España time to work in mines or something like that, and obviously there were mines in Zacatecas.
So who knows? Records are the most accurate way to know for sure so far to know where our roots extend. The search shall continue.

Comentario

Hello. My AncestryDNA results indicate 1% ethnicity estimate to Indigenous Americas—Bolivia & Perú. I really didn't expect that, but being that our early ancestors on this side of the globe traveled a lot, it kinda made sense.

Regarding not finding any indicators of strictly "Peruvian" descent, I suspect the Spanish authorities during the Viceroyalty of Nueva Granada, as from Nueva Galicia, wouldn't categorize native Americans based on their location, but rather generalized them as you've indicated.

Please keep in mind that this is my theory. I'm not a professional genealogist, but I'm sure someone on this forum can enlight us both.

Buenos días Rodolfo,

Mi mamá es originaria de Calvillo y por ende descendiente de la mayoría de aquella población pequeña de españoles. Da. María Josefa Ruiz de Salazar y Valdivia es la hija de mi sexto tío bisabuelos. Esta como señalas fue mujer de don José Antonio Muñoz de Hermosillo y Alonso de los Hinojos. Su padre fue don José María Ruiz de Salazar es hijo de mi antepasados don Juan Ramón Ruiz de Salazar y doña Gertrudis de Velasco.

Los Ruiz de Tagle son interesantes. Me imagino que esta María debió ser pariente cercano de don José Manuel Ruiz de Tagle y Rendón el cual casó doña Rosalía del Aguila y López de Nava en Calvillo el 2 de julio de 1791. Tengo la sospecha que éste debió ser nieto de don Domingo Ruiz de Tagle y doña Ignacia de Cruzat, Marqueses de Selva Nevada, pero no he dedicado tiempo para estudiarlo.

1.)-Juan Gonzalez de Hermosillo and Maria de Muñoz are the parents of
Francisco Muñoz de Cabeza

2.)-Farncisco Muñoz de Cabeza and Francisca de Torres are the parents of Miguel Muñoz de Hermosillo

3.)-Miguel Muñoz de Hermosillo and Maria Camarena are the parents of Miguel Muñoz de Hermosillo.

4.)-Miguel Muñoz de Hermosillo and Regina de Villaseñor de Cuevas are the parents of Manuel Muñoz de Hermosillo.

5.)- Manuel Muñoz de Hermosillo and Ines Gutierrez de Mendoza are the parents of Miguel Antonio de Hermosillo.

6.)- Miguel Antonio Muñoz de Hermosillo is the Padrino to José Bernadino de la Trinidad which leads me to believe that he is possibly Bernardino’s paternal grandfather.

1) Juan Gonzalez de Hermosillo and Maria de Muñoz are the parents of
Francisco Muñoz de Cabeza

2) Farncisco Muñoz de Cabeza and Francisca de Torres are the parents of Miguel Muñoz de Hermosillo

3) Miguel Muñoz de Hermosillo and Maria Camarena are the ancestors to many Miguel Muñoz de Hermosillo.

More research needs to be done to find each link.

There is more information on M. Carmen Alonso:

Carmen Alonso is the daughter of Antonio Alonzo and Josefa Alonso

Antonio Alonso is the son of juan Alonso de los Hinojos and Veronica Lopez Castañeda

Juan Alonso de los Hinojos is the son of Capitan Pedro de los Hinojos and Ana Diaz de Medel D.

Capitan Pedro Alonso de los Hinojos

Pedro Alonso de Hinijosos had multiple marriages. The parents of M. del Carmen Alonso are related, both descending from Pedro Alonso De Hinojoso.

Through Josefa there is also a Diaz de Leon and Sotomayor ancestry.

It seems that Maria Del Carmen (del Carmel) Alonso also used the surname “de ESPARZA.”
Happy Halloween,

Hi Joseph,

I am really having a hard time understanding the people that have logged into the site and have found there family history
that can't spare $10.
Iam sure a lot of users pay Ancestry.com 2-3 hundred a year and have turned to Nuestros Ranchos because they were unable to find there family history on Ancestry. I for one have connected with other users and have found much more family history
through NR than on other ancestry sites.

You and I have communicated through emails and if I can help you on additional donations, please let me know.

Solo como nota, les comento que en los últimos meses he estado corrigiendo mas de 500 personas ancestros míos (y de muchos otros claro está) que han sido cambiados por el usuario "mbarrena", desconozco su intención pero esta claro que ésta persona lo hace sabiendo que la información que añade is incorrecta cuando no ridícula.

Ése registro en el enlace es una muestra perfecta de éste problema, éste usuario usa otros nombres también para tratar de despistar su identidad.

Cada ves que veas ese nombre, ó "Nueva Galicia now Jalisco" ó similar en el lugar de nacimiento, sabrás que la información ha sido corrompida, a veces al grado que se necesita comenzar de cero, por lo que la debes de dudar casi completamente.

Saludos y Suerte!

Buenos dias RJQ,
Yo también he encontrado que en FamilySearch hay datos que pueden llevar a ramas de la familia falsas, después de varias modificaciones llegué a una teoria que Maria Leonor de Avila era la esposa de Christobal de Medina del Rincon y no de Christobal de Medina Valdivia.
Mi version de la historia de la familia Medina de Aguascalientes es la siguente:
1. Antonio Medina del Rincon de la Vega nacido en Valladolid con Maria Romero Gutierrez y de la Cerda.
2.Luis de Medina del Rincon y Romero con Maria Fernandez de Vaulus de Siordia.
3.Nicolas de Medina del Rincon con Leonor Luevano Lopez y Becerra.
4.Christobal de Medina del Rincon con Maria Leonor de Avila.
5.Christobal Manuel de Medina Avila con Rosa Maria Montañez Carrillo.
6.Diego de Medina Montañez con Angela Castañeda Macias.
7.Pedro Pablo Medina de Medina Castañeda con Maria Josefa Lopez.
8.Jacinto de Medina Lopez con Benita Vazquez de Mercado.
9.Pedro Pablo Medina Vazquez con Maria Desideria Medina de Santos (quien era bisnieta de Diego de Medina Montañez).
10.Juan Medina Medina con Maria Eusebia Luciana Lopez Gonzalez '(quien era bisnieta de Jacinto de Medina Lopez).
11.Pablo Medina Lopez con Mercedes Diaz Moran, quienes son mis abuelos maternos).
Me gustaria que verificaras estos nombres para ver si cohinciden con los tuyos.

Si es asi podremos compartir mas datos de la familia y sus interacciones, ya que hubo matrimonios entre los miembros de unas cuantas familias "hidrocalidas".

Saludos
Jorge Minchaca Medina

aaaahhh... qué alivio que alguien me confirme que esa "mbarrena" es un agente de caos. Alucinante cómo encima de toda esa información incorrecta que sube se la pasa añadiendo notas a perfiles demandando que la gente no cambie nada "PORQUE SON SUS FAMILIARES". Pero obviamente lo peor es que veo sus "contribuciones" reproducidas una y otra vez en árboles en Ancestry.

Comentario

Cabe mencionar que por años he reportado a esta persona sin ningún resultado, también conocido/a como "JGPS" y "NataliaFranco6", y debe haber mas "nombres".

En cuanto tenga tiempo y un poco de dinero tratare de acomodar todo la información que tengo de mi árbol en mi propia pagina web en vez de colaborar en FS, lo cual se esta volviendo una perdida de tiempo.

Es increíble como una sola persona puede hacer de un proyecto como Family Search algo de poca utilidad. Que lastima que no exista (en mi opinión) Ninguna otra pagina web que hospede públicamente y de manera accesible arboles de genealogía.

El formato es distinto, pero por lo que he visto me parece que wikitree es excelente. (Acabo de abrir cuenta hace apenas unos días.)

Ella es un miembro de la Iglesia de los Santos de los Últimos Días, ya de la tercera edad que se atribuye ser la primera persona en realizar toooda la genealogía de los Altos de Jalisco, México y el Universo en Familysearch. Por otra parte, hace todo ese desorden porque lo necesita para sus ordenanzas. Tenemos muchos parientes en común y es muy agotador tener que estar cambiando y complementando las contribuciones que borra.

Respecto a los Medina todavía sigo investigando, cuando tenga avances, se los compartiré. Un saludo.

Tengo estas familias bien documentadas:

Luis de Medina Valdivia y María Fernández de Vaulús no tuvieron ningún hijo llamado Nicolás de Medina; esta persona no existe.
Leonor Becerra, hija de Juan de Luévana y María López de Lisardi, estaba casada con Juan Fernández de Vaulús, que era hermano de María Fernández de Vaulús.
No se sabe si Luis de Medina Valdivia era hijo de Antonio de Medina Rincón y María de Valdivia Romero. Su ascendencia aún se desconoce.
La ascendencia de Cristóbal de Medina Valdivia también se desconoce, y no se ha encontrado documentación que establezca una relación entre él y Luis de Medina.

La información proporcionada en esa genealogía es incorrecta y debe cambiarse.

Un cordial saludo,

En mi mensaje del 9 mayo 2021, dije que no estoy de acuerdo con la genealogía de Cristóbal de Medina Valdivia propuesta en la página de familysearch, sin dar más detalles, y ahora las doy. En mis investigaciones, intento utilizar las fuentes principales cuando pueda, aquí comparto algunas. Si alguien quiere agregar algo, hágalo por favor, pero incluya sus fuentes. Gracias.

Aunque no soy descendiente de Cristóbal de Medina y María de Ávila, los he investigado extensamente, ya que soy descendiente de Luis de Medina y María de Siordia, y quería ver si había una conexión entre estas dos familias que comparten el mismo apellido compuesto. En este momento, no he encontrado ninguno.

Como dije, la ascendencia de Cristóbal de Medina Valdivia y Altuna aún se desconoce. Solo he visto dos pistas que arrojan luz sobre quiénes podrían ser sus padres:

La primera es la acta matrimonial de su hijo, Juan de Medina Altuna. En ella, aparecen Juan de Medina y su padre con el apellido compuesto “Medina Altuna”. No sé si es un verdadero apellido compuesto, o si “Altuna” es el apellido materno de Cristóbal de Medina. También había un tal Nicolás de Medina y Altuna (o Antuna), que se casó con María de Lisaldi el 22 dic 1688 en Aguascalientes. Según su acta, los dos eran “espositos” (huerfanos). No dice en cuyas casas fueron espositos, pero en el caso de Nicolás, probablemente fue en la de Cristóbal de Medina, ya que es la única persona con este apellido compuesto en Aguascalientes durante los años en que nació Nicolás.

La segunda pista aparece en la dispensación de su hija, Gabriela de Medina y Ávila, cuando se casó con Luis de los Reyes: estaban en 3° con 4° grado de consanguinidad, dicen por ser Cristóbal de Medina primo hermano de uno de los abuelos de Luis de Reyes (no dicen cual). Pero yo creo que los testigos se equivocaron, porque se trataba de María de Ávila (madre de la pretensa) que era prima hermana de Juan Ortiz, abuelo materno de Luis de Reyes, siendo hijos de dos hermanos que eran Nicolás y Josepha de Ávila (hijos de Luis de Ávila y Clara de Amaya). Este parentesco se confirma con la dispensa de otra hija de Cristóbal de Medina y María de Ávila, Beatriz de Medina, cuando se casó con José de los Reyes, hermano de Luis de los Reyes. Por eso la dispensa de Gabriela y Luis es una pista falsa. :(

Tronco: Luis de Ávila cc Clara de Amaya
Josepha de Ávila-1-Nicolás de Avila
Juan Ortiz-2-María de Ávila
Ysabel Ortiz-3-Gabriel y Beatriz de Medina
Luis y Joseph de Reyes-4

De ser Cristóbal de Medina Valdivia hijo de Nicolás de Medina y de Leonor de Luevana: puede ser que el padre de Cristóbal de Medina Valdivia se llamara Nicolás de Medina, pero nunca he visto este nombre en ninguno de los documentos referentes a esta familia. De hecho, la primera vez que lo vi fue en el referido perfil de familysearch, que da nada de citaciones. De lo que estoy seguro, es que la madre de Cristóbal de Medina no era Leonor de Luevana, la hija de Juan de Luevana y María López de Lizaldi, y mejor conocida como Leonor de Becerra, porque la esta estaba casada con Juan Fernández Vaulús de Siordia, hijo de Pedro Fernández de Vaulús y María de Gabay, como declaró la misma Leonor en su testamento, fechado en 14 mar 1680. Además, si Cristóbal de Medina fuera hijo de Leonor de Becerra, entonces él y su primera esposa, María de Ávila y Luevana, serían primos hermanos, y habrían sido dispensados en 2º grado ​​cuando se casaron el 2 mayo 1666, y no hay mención de una dispensa en su acta matrimonial.

Otra cosa de la que estoy seguro es que no hay documentación de que Luis de Medina Valdivia y María de Siordia tuvieran un hijo llamado Nicolás de Medina; según la documentación disponible, solo tuvieron un hijo varón, Juan, bautizado el 3 ago 1617, y no hay otro rastro de este niño, por lo que se puede suponer que murió joven.

Y de ser Luis de Medina Valdivia hijo de Antonio de Medina Rincón y María de Valdivia Romero, no hay pruebas. Aunque sean los progenitores del apellido compuesto “Medina Valdivia” en la Nueva Galicia, no es prueba suficiente. Solo he podido documentar dos hijos suyos, ambos casados ​​y con hijos, pero no he podido vincular a Luis de Medina Valdivia con esta familia. Quizás era su hijo, o ¿hijo de uno de sus hijos? No sé.

Sobre Antonio de Medina Rincón: aunque algunos teorizan que era hermano del Fray Juan de Medina Rincón y de la Vega, obispo de Michoacán, no lo era. Juan de Medina Rincón era hijo del Licenciado Antonio Ruiz de Medina, fiscal de la Audiencia de Mexico, y de Catalina de la Vega, que llegaron con la corte del virrey Antonio de Mendoza en 1535. Según las Informaciones de Baltasar de la Peña y Medina (PARES 1648) - bisnieto de Antonio de Medina Rincón y María de Valdivia Romero - Antonio de Medina Rincón era “hijo de Pedro de Medina hijo legitimo de Pedro de Medina y nieto de Juan de Quiscas”. No da mas información sobre sus orígenes, pero no dice nada que los vincule con Juan de Medina Rincón ni con Antonio Ruiz de Medina - si fueran sus parientes o antepasados, lo habrían mencionado, ya que ambos fueron personajes muy ilustres en la historia del México colonial.

Cristóbal de Medina Valdivia y María de Ávila se casaron el 2 may 1666 en Aguascalientes. Sus hijos son:

1. Cristóbal de Medina “el Mozo”, b. 08 Abr 1667, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes; m. Rosa María Montañés Carrillo, 13 may 1689.
2. Leonor de Medina, n. 1668, m. Juan Rangel Macias, 03 jun 1686, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes.
3. Gertrudis de Medina, b. 04 oct 1670, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes.
4. Juan de Medina Altuna, n. 1672, m Teresa Díaz de Lomas Tiscareño, 28 mar 1694, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes.
5. Bernabé de Medina, b. 16 sep 1674, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes; m. María Teresa Romo de Vivar, 12 abr 1722, Asientos, Ags.
6. Matias de Medina, b. 22 abr 1676, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes; m. Gertrudis Díaz de Lomas Reyes, im. 1 ene 1702.
7. Francisco de Medina, b. 11 oct 1677, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes; m. Antonia Josepha Laredo de Sotomayor, im. 20 ene 1702.
8. Nicolás de Medina, b. 31 oct 1679, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes; m. María Ruiz de Rivera, im. 19 dic 1711.
9. María de Medina, n. 1681, m. Miguel Martín Camacho Macias, 28 ene 1703, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes.
10. Antonio de Medina, b. 12 jul 1683, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes; m. Ana López Gil de la Mancha, 29 dec 1701.
11. Josepha de Medina, b. 14 ago 1685, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes.
12. Beatriz de Medina, b. 06 may 1687, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes; m. Joseph de los Reyes Ramírez, 11 mar 1709.
13. Josepha Augustina de Medina, b. 16 sep 1688, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes.
14. Josepha de Medina, b. 08 Dec 1689, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes.
15. Gabriela de Medina, n. 1690, m. Luis de los Reyes Ramírez, 25 nov 1714, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes.
16. Ysabel de Medina, b. 06 mar 1691, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes.

Como dije, soy descendiente de Luis de Medina Valdivia y María Fernández de Vaulús y Siordia, casados el 22 sep 1614. Aquí, sus hijos, los que tengo documentados:

a) Juan de Medina Siordia, b. 03 Aug 1617, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes.
b) Doña María de Siordia, b. 09 Feb 1620, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes, c. 19 Nov 1620, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes; m. Nicolás Ramírez Valadés, 13 Apr 1638, Nʳª Sʳª de los Dolores, Teocaltiche, Jal.
c) Doña Luisa de Siordia, b. 04 Oct 1622, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes; m. Blas de Vargas Valadés, 12 Apr 1638, Nʳª Sʳª de los Dolores, Teocaltiche, Jal.
d) Doña Catalina de Siordia, c. 16 May 1634, Nʳª Sʳª de los Dolores,Teocaltiche, Jal; m. Francisco Cárdenas, 22 Aug 1648, Nʳª Sʳª de los Dolores, Teocaltiche, Jal.
e) Doña Antonia de Medina Siordia, c. 16 May 1634, Nʳª Sʳª de los Dolores, Teocaltiche, Jal.
f) Doña Melchora de Medina Siordia, c. 16 May 1634, Nʳª Sʳª de los Dolores, Teocaltiche, Jal.

A partir de su matrimonio en 1614, el nombre de Luis de Medina aparece en los registros parroquiales de Aguascalientes, ya sea como padre, padrino, testigo, o cuando sus criados se casaron o bautizaron a un niño. El 31 marzo 1620, fue acordado una merced de tierras de un sitio de estancia de ganado mayor con cuatro caballerías de tierra, “junto al camino que va de Teocaltiche a Zacatecas”. La última vez que su nombre aparece en el archivo parroquial de Aguascalientes es el 20 nov 1625; el 9 ene 1628 se casaron Gaspar de los Reyes y Ana Francisca, criados de María de Siordia. Que aparezca su nombre en lugar del de su marido, se puede suponer que Luis de Medina ya había muerto. A partir del 16 mayo 1634, María de Siordia y sus hijas ya viven en Teocaltiche.

Saludos,
Manny Díez Hermosillo

Buenos días Manny,

Muchas gracias por toda esta información, me voy a poner a buscar con más detalle pues aunque la mayoría de tus datos coinciden con los míos hay otros que no. Hay relaciones que me parecían lógicas pero no tengo fuentes seguras con respecto a las relaciones entre Antonio Medina del Rincón, Luis de Medina Valdivia, Nicolás de Medina y Cristóbal de Medina.
Lo que si encontré fue un documento de información de matrimonio de Pedro Pablo de Medina Vázquez de Mercado con Josefa Medina Medina con el caso de consanguinidad muy complejo.

https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HY-DHZQ-NFR?cc=1502404&wc=M6Q…

Todo empieza con Diego Medina Montañéz, uno de los hijos de Cristóbal de Medina y Rosa María Montañéz Carrillo “el mozo”.
Diego se casó con Ángela de Castañeda y Macías y tuvieron, entre otros a tres hijos: Antonio Félix, Pedro Pablo y Joseph Manuel.

1. Diego de Medina Montañéz; m. Ángela Castañeda Masías

1.1 Antonio Félix de Medina Castañeda; m. María Rita Josefa Fernández
1.1.1 Pedro de Medina Fernández; m. Petra de Santos
1.1.1.1 María Victoriana Medina Santos; m. Juan Esteban Medina Ruiz
1.1.1.2 María Desideria Medina Santos

1.2 Joseph Manuel de Medina Castañeda; m. María Inés Gertrudis Rendón Díaz
1.2.1 Juan José de Medina Rendón; m. María Gertrudis Ruiz de Esparza Ponce
1.2.1.1 Juan Esteban Medina Ruiz

1.3 Pedro Pablo de Medina Castañeda; m. María Josefa López
1.3.1 Jacinto de Medina López; m. Benita Vázquez de Mercado
1.3.1.1 Pedro Pablo de Medina Vázquez de Mercado

María Victoriana (1.1.1.1) se casó con su primo Juan Esteban (1.2.1.1) y tuvieron como hija a Josefa Medina Medina.

María Desideria (1.1.1.2) se casó con su primo Pedro Pablo (1.3.1.1) . Al morir María Desideria, Pedro Pablo se casó con Josefa quien era hija de su cuñada María Victoriana (1.1.1.1.) y de su primo Juan Esteban (1.2.1.1).

Aun no sé si Pedro Pablo y Josefa tuvieron hijos pero yo soy descendiente de María Desideria y Pedro Pablo.

De nuevo gracias por tus explicaciones, es posible que ésto que acabo de escribir ya lo sabías pero puede ayudar a otros “primos” para sus investigaciones.

Saludos.

Jorge

Comentario

Manny,
He estado buscando información sobre la familia Medina y encontré algo con lo que hice algunas suposiciones, quisiera que tomaras algún tiempo para ver esto y decirnos que piensas.
1. Don Juan de Medina y del Rincón
El Testamento del licenciado Bartolomé de Benavente Benavides, del Consejo de Indias (https://investigadoresrb.patrimonionacional.es/node/8803 ) dice que es hijo del Licenciado Cristóbal de Benavente Benavides y de Isabel del Rincón y de Medina, que su abuelo materno es el Licenciado Antonio Ruiz de Medina y del Rincón y que su abuela materna es Catalina de la Vega.
Dice también que el Licenciado Antonio Ruiz de Medina del Rincón era hijo natural de Don Juan de Medina del Rincón quien nació en la villa de Medina del Campo y fue obispo de Segovia y presidente de la Real Cancilleria de Valladolid. Don Juan está enterrado en la capilla mayor de la Colegiata de San Antolín en Medina del Campo.
2. Juan Medina Rincón
En la Real Academia de la Historia se encuentra que Juan Medina Rincón, nacido en Medina del Campo el 27 de Diciembre de 1520 era hijo del Licenciado Antonio Ruiz de Medina y de Catalina de la Vega (https://dbe.rah.es/biografias/34633/juan-medina-rincon ) Que su padre ocupó la plaza de fiscal de la Audiencia de México y con él marchó a Nueva España toda la familia. Murió en Morelia Michoacán en 1588, siendo Obispo de Michoacán.
La primera conclusión es que Juan Medina Rincón era hermano de Isabel del Rincón y de Medina.
3. Antonio Medina del Rincón de la Vega
En el sitio de Family Search se puede ver que hay un Antonio Medina del Rincón de la Vega (G367-9J2), nacido en Medina del Campo, hijo del Licenciado Antonio Ruiz de Medina y del Rincón y de Catalina de la Vega. Casado con María Romero Gutiérrez y de la Serda Patiño en 1575. En el Sitio de My Heritage se puede encontrar la misma persona, nacida en 1532.
La primera suposición es que Antonio Medina del Rincón de la Vega era también hermano de Juan y de Isabel.
María Romero Gutiérrez y de la Serda Patiño era hija de Cristóbal Romero y Gutiérrez de Valdivia y de Ana de la Serda Patiño. Cristóbal era hijo de Juan Romero y de Leonor Gutiérrez de Valdivia y Núñez, descendiente de una familia de Valdivia, Villanueva, Extremadura, España.
4. Luis de Medina del Rincón y Romero Gutiérrez
Tanto en Family Search que en My Heritage, se encuentra Luis de Medina del Rincón y Romero Gutiérrez, nacido en Aguascalientes, Nueva Galicia en 1589 era hijo de Antonio de Medina del Rincón de la Vega y de María Romero Gutiérrez y de la Serda Patiño, casado con María Fernández de Vaulus de Siordia y Navarro y Arias de Sotelo.
En Family Search, María Fernández de Vaulus y Sordia (9Z94-9JV) aparece como esposa de Luis de Medina Valdivia (LRRM-Y4W).
La segunda suposición es que Luis de Medina del Rincón y Romero Gutiérrez haya cambiado su nombre de Luis de Medina del Rincón por Luis de Medina Valdivia, por un lado para borrar su pasado de ser descendiente de un hijo natural de un obispo y por otro lado para tomar el apellido de más prestigio de la familia de su esposa.
5. Nicolás de Medina del Rincón y Fernández de Vaulus
En el sitio de Family Search hay un Nicolás de Medina del Rincón y Fernández de Vaulus (G3H3-TJG), nacido en Aguascalientes en 1625, hijo de Luis de Medina Valdivia y de María Fernández de Vaulus y Navarro de Gabay.
La tercera suposición es que Nicolás es bien el hijo de Luis y María, pero como hay una ambigüedad entre Medina del Rincón y Medina Valdivia, aparece que Luis Medina Valdivia no tuvo hijos.
Voy a seguir investigando para ver si encuentro registros civiles o religiosos para comprobar mis suposiciones.
Saludos
Jorge

Hola Jorge,

El testamento de Bartolomé de Benavente Benavides es super interesante, por su contenido histórico, gracias por compartirlo. Que Antonio Ruiz del Rincón fuera hijo natural del Obispo Doctor don Juan Ruiz de Rincón - el inquisitor general - no me sorprende nada. jeje

Tu teoría sobre por qué las Medina Valdivias adoptarían este apellido en lugar de Medina del Rincón es interesante. En cuanto a tus demás supuestos, lo siento, me cuesta darles mucha consideración, ya que se basan en la existencia de un tal Nicolás de Medina del Rincón y Fernández de Vaulus (G3H3-TJG). Es que no estoy convencido de que existiera esta persona [fuera de la imaginación de Mbarrena], por las razones que expuse en mi mensaje del 31 mayo 2021: 1), no hay documentación de que Luis de Medina Valdivia y María de Siordia tuvieran un hijo llamado Nicolás, y 2), la supuesta esposa de este, Leonor de Luevano y López de Lisardi, estaba casada con Juan Fernández de Vaulús, según declaró ella misma en su testamento.

Si hay alguna conexión entre Cristóbal de Medina Valdivia y Luis de Medina Valdivia, hay que buscarla en los archivos de Teocaltiche, ya que ahí es donde vivía la mayoría de los hijos del último. Si existe, veo dos posibilidades: que Cristóbal de Medina es hijo de Juan de Medina, el hijo de Luis de Medina y María de Siordia bautizado el 3 ago 1617, o, que Cristóbal es el hijo natural de una de las hijas de Luis de Medina (y su padre se apellidaba Altuna, lo que explicaría su uso de ese apellido).

Mirando en los archivos de Teocaltiche, había tres hombres llamados Juan de Medina que podría ser nuestro “eslabón perdido”. El primero se casó con Doña Isabel de Velasco el 22 abril 1644. Su acta matrimonial dice que era viudo de Doña Francisca (no se da su apellido), y la novia era hija de Martín Fernández de Vaulús y Gabay y Doña Isabel de Velasco y Grijalba. Tuvieron un hijo llamado Cristóbal, confirmado el 28 junio 1648. El problema es que este Juan de Medina no podía ser hijo de Luis de Medina y María de Siordia, ya que Isabel de Velasco era su prima hermana, y no hay mención de una dispensa de 2º grado en su acta. El segundo Juan de Medina estaba casado con María de Estrada, y también tuvieron un hijo llamado Cristóbal, quien fue confirmado en diciembre de 1666 (también tuvieron un hijo llamado Luis de Medina cc María de Laris). El tercero Juan de Medina estaba casado con María de Arriola (es posible que son la misma pareja, y que Estrada y Arriola son los apellidos de María?). Cualquiera de estos dos últimos podría ser hijo de Luis de Medina y María de Siordia, aunque no he visto a ninguno de sus hijos usar el apellido compuesto "Medina Valdivia", ni a sus hijas usar el apellido "Siordia”.

Volviendo al primer Juan de Medina, el casado con Isabel Fernández de Vaulús y Velasco, y que era viudo de “doña Francisca”. Ya hemos concluido que no puede ser hijo de Luis de Medina Valdivia, pero, ¿dónde dice que Cristobal de Medina tiene que descender de Luis de Medina Valdivia? El 20 abril 1638 en Guadalajara, un tal Juan de Medina Valdivia entregó su poder especial a su esposa, Doña Francisca de la Vera. No sé quién es este Juan de Medina Valdivia, pero probablemente sea el mismo Juan bautizado el 19 abril 1609 en Guadalajara, hijo de Juan de Medina Valdivia y de Isabel de Ortiz, y por tanto nieto de Antonio de Medina Rincón cc Doña María de Valdivia Romero. No puedo verificar que sean la misma persona, ya que no he podido encontrar más documentos sobre esta pareja, pero, supongamos que son la misma persona;
Y supongamos que es el mismo Juan de Medina, viudo de Doña Francisca (de la Vera?), que se casó con Doña Isabel de Velasco en 1644;
Y supongamos que su hijo, Cristóbal de Medina, quien fue confirmado en 1648, es el mismo que se casó con María de Ávila en 1666 en Aguascalientes.

Muy interesante, ¿no? Elimina a Luis de Medina Valdivia de la ecuación, pero conciliaría el uso del apellido “Medina Valdivia”. Para mí, esto es más plausible. La respuesta estaría en el archivo parroquial de Guadalajara, o en los protócolos notariales, y ahí es donde te recomiendo que continúes tu investigación. Hay que buscar datos sobre Juan de Medina Valdivia y Doña Francisca de la Vera, a ver si es el hijo de Juan de Medina cc Isabel de Ortiz, y si ella su murio antes del año de 1644. Y luego hay que ver si es el mismo que se casó con Isabel de Velasco.

En cuanto a que Antonio de Medina Rincón sea hijo de Antonio Ruiz de Medina cc Catalina de la Vega, tengo mis dudas. Según las “Informaciones de Baltasar de la Peña y Medina” (bisnieto de Antonio de Medina Rincón), Antonio de Medina Rincón era hijo de Pedro de Medina. Mira en la foja numero 3, linea 10, donde dice: “…si saven si los dhos Antonio medina del Rincon fueron hijos nietos y dezendientes de pedro de medina hijo lixᵐº de Pedro de medina y nieto de Juan de quiasca a quienes Toco y pertenezio La executoria que despacharon Los alcaldes y Regidores de la vª de Ruiseco su fha en catorze de Jullio de mill y quartocientos y cinquenta y seis Y sobrecarta executoria que ante los mismos alcaldes y rxˢ Presento el dho Pedro de medina que Pareze haver Libradola su magᵈ el senor Rʸ Don enrrique quarto Y escudo de harmas…”. El mismo documento habla de probanzas realizadas por los hijos y nietos de Antonio de Medina Rincón en la Ciudad de México, que explicarían la genealogía. Hay que buscarlos para aclarar las cosas.

No obstante, es probable que Antonio de Medina Rincón y Antonio Ruiz de Medina son parientes y compartan un ancestro común, ya que usan los mismos apellidos y tienen su origen en el mismo lugar.

I check NR weekly (minimum 2 x week, not always logged in) to see if there is anything relevant for my geneaolgy research lines. Like many others, I would never haves learned about PARES or Guadalajara dispensas without NR. Also, many in the forum have contributed key info in posts on the Romo de Vivar line and other lines, info which I could not have found myself, for which I am grateful. I also just enjoy reading stories of families, of specific women and men (thanks Rick!) - these stories are windows to distant times and places which otherwise would be hard to imagine without the life stories of individuals.

I admit, I check NR almost daily. It was here on NR that I learned about Retoños, PARES, Guadalajara Dispensas, Katy’s Guadalajara Dispensas, and Valladolid Dispensas. And where I met a handful of other collaborators (you know who you are). Putting aside the lamentable Somos Primos schism of 2016, the NR community is very welcoming and helpful, especially to newcomers who are just starting out.

Thank you Nuestros Ranchos! You have been invaluable over the years and you continue to be relevant to this day. I would hate to see you let go, as Joseph warned. Besides, if Nuestros Ranchos were to disappear, how will any of us ever find out the fate of Rick Ricci’s long promised book?

This place is amazing. I think alot of us are researching similar families and it helps that we can put our minds together. There is no way one person can go through the vast amount of records out there (well except for maybe Manny :P) and we are all looking for that needle in a haystack. NR is a place where many minds can get together, work through tough genealogies, and help further our family trees. Thanks Joseph!

Sebastián de Reynoso?

Buenos días.

Tradicionalmente se le considera a Sebastián hijo del capitán Francisco de Reynoso y Padilla-Dávila y de Josefa de Rentería y Valdés.

Saludos Erik,

Jaime Holcombe también escribió que Sebastián Reynoso es hijo del capitán Francisco de Reynoso y Padilla-Dávila y de Josefa de Rentería y Valdés. Jaime Holcombe apunto notas en las hojas de genealogía que entregó a la iglesia de “Latter Day Saints”.

Gracias,

Hola Rick,

Me da gusto saludarte.

En los hijos de Francisco de Reynoso y Josefa de Rentería es relativamente fácil seguir la filiación con documentos, por ejemplo:

1.- Gertrudis Gallardo y Reynoso, hija de Juana Bernarda de Reynoso y Rentería, fue bautizada el veinte y siete de abril de 1686 en Santa María de los Lagos siendo sus padrinos su tío Diego de Reynoso y Rentería y su esposa María López de Lara. Quedando así clara la relación entre Juana Bernarda y mi antepasado el capitán Diego.

2.- La relación con el capitán Francisco de Reynoso y Padilla-Dávila es clara en la partida de bautismo de María de Reynoso y López de Lara que dice: “Al margen: María Teresa, española. En esta villa de Santa María de los Lagos en veinte y seis de noviembre de mil seiscientos y ochenta y cuatro años bauticé y puse los santos óleos a María Teresa, española hija legítima de D. Diego de Reynoso y Padilla y Doña María López de Lara su mujer, fueron padrinos D. Francisco de Reynoso y Doña Josefa de Rentería abuelos de la niña a quienes hice notoria la cognación espiritual y encargué la educación y crianza de su ahijada en buenas costumbres y doctrina cristiana y para que de ellos conste lo firmé. Br. Gaspar de Padilla y Medina, rúbrica.” La partida de bautismo fue localizada en el año 2011 por el Mtro. Mario Gómez Mata (†), cronista de Lagos de Moreno quien me hizo el favor de certificarla.

Esta partida también permite corregir el error que se perpetuaba que el capitán Diego de Reynoso y Rentería era menor que Sebastián de Reinoso cuando los primeros hijos varones del capitán Francisco de Reynoso y Josefa de Rentería fueron los capitanes Francisco y Diego -homónimo de su abuelo materno Diego de Rentería- debido a las fechas en que bautizaron a sus hijos y que fueron anteriores por varios años a las de los hijos de Sebastián.

Después de consultar sobre el origen de Sebastián con otros colegas, me recomendaron que es mejor dejar el asunto así que a otra cosa.

Comentario

Hola Erik,

Me da mucho gusto saludarte y también leer lo que escribes. Mi esposa y yo descendemos muchas veces de los Reynoso. Pero además de descender de Sebastián Reynoso, tambien descendemos Catarina Rosa María Reynoso y su esposo, Capitán Juan Ramirez de Hermosillo.

Me gustaría saber que errores hay en esta dispensa que nombra a Catarina Rosa María Reynoso:

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:9392-6D9L-Q5?i=895&wc=12512…

El problema es que yo tengo a Catarina Rosa María Reynoso y Sebastian Reynoso como hermanos. En la dispensa está escrito que ella es hija de Diego Reynoso. Si ella es hija de Diego Reynoso entonces Sebastian también será hijo de Diego.

Gracias,
Rick

Hola Rick,

El error está en que hacen tronco a un Juan de Rentería y una Luisa Rubí.
En un testimonio levantado en la Estancia de Contitlán en la jurisdicción de Juchipila que era de Diego de Rentería y con fecha 25 de junio de 1659, realizado ante el capitán y teniente de alcalde mayor Rodrigo Osorio de los Ríos comparecieron Diego de Rentería Móxica y Merenciana de Valdés y Orozco su mujer junto con los hijos siguientes:

- Ángela de Rentería y Orozco de 21 años.
- María de Rentería y Orozco de 19 años.
- Sancho de Rentería y Móxica de 17 años.
- Isabel de Rentería y Orozco de 15 años.
- Francisca de Rentería y Orozco de 13 años.
- Juana de Rentería y Orozco de 11 años.
- Margarita de Rentería y Orozco de 9 años.

"... todos hijos ligítimos de los dichos Diego de Rrentería Móxica y doña Merenciana de Baldés y Horosco los quales declararon las hedades de dichos sus hijos a quienes yo el dicho teniente certifico y doy fe en la manera que puedo conosco, y abiendo la dicha Merenciana de Baldés y Horozco pedido licencia y expreso consentimiento al dicho Diego de Rrentería su marido para el otorgamiento de lo que derivaria declarado el qual se la dio y concedió libre y expresamente ambos a dos propusieron a las dichas sus hijas e hijo si sabian y les era notorio como al tiempo y quanto casaron a doña Josepha de Rrentería y Baldés su hija legítima y hermana de los susodichos con don Francisco de Rreinoso y Padilla, hijo legítimo de el capitán Francisco de Reinosso y de doña Mariana de Padilla, vecinos de la ciudad de Guadalaxara..."

Este testimonio, de la época, aclara que Margarita, entonces de 9 años, era hermana entera de Francisca quien tenía 13 años y ellas dos, hermanas de Josefa de Rentería quien a la sazón estaba casada con el capitán Francisco de Reynoso y quien debió ser la mayor y aunque su edad no consta debió haber rondado los 23 años. Los padres como queda dicho fueron Diego de Rentería y Emerenciana de Orozco y Valdés.

Este error en la dispensa se presenta en el tronco y aunque en lo personal me causa dudas respecto a si Diego de Reynoso y Margarita de Rentería fueron en verdad padres de Catalina Rosa, no hay que descartar esta posibilidad.

Hasta el momento y a falta de documentación podemos agrupar a los siguientes Reynoso en la misma zona y fechas:
- Catalina Rosa de Reynoso Rentería c.c. Juan Ramírez de Hermosillo. Hija de acuerdo con la dispensa mencionada, de Diego de Reynoso y Margarita de Rentería.
- Sancho de Reinoso c.c. Juana García de Hermosillo.
- Sebastián de Reinoso casado hacia 1693 con Francisca Ramírez de Hermosillo.

Los anteriores fueron vecinos de Jalostotitlán a diferencia de los hijos de Francisco de Reynoso y Josefa de Rentería.

Por último encontramos a este homónimo de Sebastián:

- Sebastián de Reinoso y Padilla casado el 3 de agosto de 1689 con María de Alva Cervantes y Villaseñor. Hijo de padres no conocidos. Fue vecino de Teocaltiche.

Estoy enfocándome en estos días en Sebastian a ver si puedo encontrar su testamento o algo que mencione a sus padres.

Hola Leon de Tejada
Muchas gracias por tu publicación, el documento que mencionas del 25 de junio de 1659, ¿se puede ver en línea? Llevo tiempo buscando una fuente primaria que respalde que Francisco Reynoso y Padilla (esposo de Josefa de Rentería) es hijo de Francisco Reynoso y Mariana de Padilla, y creo que este documento es lo que estaba buscando. ¿Es posible verlo en línea? mi correo jesusibarra1964@gmail.com

Hola León,

Me interesó bastante tu publicación. Podrías darme un poco más de información. Para saber quién es el tal Antonio de Rojas y Sandoval. Si no me equivoco, el linaje Rojas de donde desciende María Rojas (López-Portillo) es el siguiente (me permito usar los apellidos sencillos y excluir la rama femenina a partir de cierto punto):

1. María Rojas (de López-Portillo)
2. Vicente Rojas Jiménez cc María Flores Alatorre
3. Ignacio Rojas Anda cc María Jiménez
4. Pedro José Rojas y Sánchez Banales cc Antonio de Anda Altamirano
5. José Rojas y Beltrán Dorantes
6. Pedro Rojas y Gallaga Mandarte
7. Juan José de Rojas y Sandoval

Según tus investigaciones dónde iría el tal Antonio de Rojas y Sandoval. O bien dónde diferimos en el árbol.
Saludos, Daniel.

I have Florencio Magallanes and Martina Luera as the parents of Camilo Magallanes.

I have Higinio Franco and Telesfora Gómez as the parents of Francisca Franco.

This information comes from the baptismal record of Maria Placida Magallanes Franco.

Good Luck in your research,
Rick A. Ricci

Comentario

Hey Rick, thanks for the prompt reply. Hope you are well. Until recently, I've known that information since my childhood, with the exception of Telésfora.

I continue searching for information on Don Aniceto (Aniseto) Magallanes, his vitals, origin, ancestors, and descendants, as well as that information pertaining to Don José María Rodrígues (Rodríguez). Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

Comentario

Hello Jesus,

It’s not that you are doing anything wrong, it’s that “Magallanes” is often abbreviated many different ways. You are going to have to get creative and come up with as many abbreviations that you can think of and just keep trying those abbreviations in familysearch. I had a hard time finding documents on one of my recent ancestors and finally, after many years, found his birth records with an abbreviated surname. If you don’t find him under an abbreviated surname, then you may want to cast a wider net as he may have originally been from somewhere else and traveled to Zacatecas.

Don’t give up. For some of my ancestors it took over two decades to find them. You never know when you are going to strike gold.

Rick A. Ricci

P. S. That ancestor that I couldn’t find for many years was a great great grandfather surnamed Rodríguez (Rodg.). He lived a long time. His daughter from his third marriage married a maternal uncle of Presidente Fox.

Comentario

Hey Rick,

Thank you very much for the feedback and encouragement. I'll start looking at several abbreviations and then start organizing myself a little more and come up with a game plan. Weird I'm good at looking up the living, but your insight is helping me set my thoughts in order. I really appreciate it.

Comentario

Hi Jesus,

There is a lead on seeing if there is more information on Jose Sabas Pacheco and Serapia Rodríguez. Look up the baptismal record of Jose Cresencio Pacheco Rodríguez on the 2/January/1881 in Valparaiso. I believe that there may be a mistake in that date, but check out that film and search out the baptismal record.

This link will put you in the ballpark of where you want to look for this record : https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:939N-YT9C-X?i=61&cc=1804458

Good Luck,
Rick

Comentario

Hello Jesus,

I believe that Luis Magallanes is also known as Norberto Magallanes so let’s call him Luis Norberto Magallanes.

There is a death record for Luis Magallanes dated 27/May/1880 where it states that he is eighty years old, son of Aniceto Magallanes and Bonifacia Laralda aka Bonifacia Muñoz, and widower of Romualda Mendiola.

While searching for records of Romualda Mendiola, Her husbands name is listed as Norberto Magallanes. That is why I believe that Luis and Norbeto Magallanes are the same person.

Good luck in your research,
Glad I could help,

Rick A. Ricci

Comentario

Wow! Thanks a bunch, Rick! That'll help out a lot! I did find an entry in ancestry.com that doesn't show a document, but shows "Alfonso" Magallanes and Francisca Franco, as parents of Plácida Magallanes Franco, instead of Camilo. Weird.

I started looking at the Rodriguez surname using different variants, and have come up with more information that I need to verify.

I know a Mendiola family. Maybe they're descendants too. That's for later.

Comentario

Hello Jesus,

I found a document that clearly read Remigio Franco instead of Higinio Franco so we may have been misreading his first name all along.

For now we should identify him as Remigio “Higinio” Franco until we can clarify why we have come up with different first names for this person. It may be just how we read the script or the scribe misunderstood what he was told and wrote one instead of the other. Or one is his nickname while the other was his baptismal name.

Higinio Remigio Franco does have a son of named Remigio so it is possible that the son’s name was confused with the father’s name.
Rick A. Ricci

Comentario

Hi Rick,

Oh wow. It wouldn't occur to me to think that the scribe would do either, but it does make sense after reading many slides.

But then you're also right. Some folks would provide certain information.

And then we have another situation with another member of the Tree, but I think I'll post it as a separate topic, due to its complexity. This one, ironically, reminds me of a recent Spanish series. It's complicated.

Stay safe and have a good Night, Rick!

Hello Jesus,

I found a “José Leandro de Jesus Rodriguez Cortez” that May be your ancestor. This Leandro Rodriguez does have a father named José María Rodriguez and he is from Zacatecas.
More research needs to be done to clarify if the two “Leandro Rodriguez” are the same person.

Technical Website Advice Needed

I use DreamHost as the ISP for the nuestrosranchos.org website. For quite awhile now our version of Drupal has been out of date and DreamHost says they will upgrade to the latest version.

Comentarios

Comentario

Hello Joseph,

With regards to the new update, I found this:

"Drupal 9 is built in Drupal 8, using deprecations and optional updated dependencies. ... Drupal 9.0 involves the removal of some deprecated code, but introduces no new features; it's a continuation of the fully-tested, stable codebase that is Drupal 8."

https://www.lullabot.com/articles/should-you-upgrade-drupal7-drupal9

There is more insightful information on that website. If you're currently on Drupal 7, or even 8, I'd say go with the update. If the ISP can work with it, then it'll be a good choice to upgrade.

Comentario

I'm not savvy with PHP, as my only website experience was with intermediate HTML and MySpace coding back in the day, but I'm here to assist in which way I can.

In regards to the version requirements, their website states the following:

"Server and database requirements

Drupal 9 requires PHP 7.3 or higher, and the version requirement for Apache has been increased to Apache 2.4. 7 or higher.

The following database versions are supported by Drupal 9 core: MySQL or Percona 5.7." Jun 3, 2020

https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/releases/9.0.0

Website Money Needed

ok the website has needed to be updated for a few years now as the Drupal is way out of date.

Joseph,

I will happily contribute. Just a question of clarification. Do you want 30 people as evidence of the breadth of commitment to Nuestros Ranchos or do you just want to make sure the $300 gets covered?

To our Members, I encourage us that if some of us have the means to contribute more than $10 we can and should do so, and if those of you that can contribute $10, should do so.

Thanks, Joseph, for all you have done and are doing. We stand with you.

Comentario

Really it is not about the money as $300 is not very much. I'm just wanting to see if there is truly enough interest in the group to support this effort. Even if one of the letters I receive has $300 I'll be returning them ALL if I do not have 30 separate contributions. The only ones I might NOT be returning are those that come to me without a RETURN ADDRESS because the way I'll return them is to mark them REFUSED and they should be RETURNED TO SENDER.

Just for your information as of 9/23 I have 6 contributions so things are not looking good.

Also if I didn’t explain it clearly If I DO NOT receive 30 separate contributions I WILL NOT be shutting down the site but if the site one days stops working due to needing maintenance then I’ll remember this failed effort to raise funds and consider it the time to let the group go.

I forgot to say that if I don't get 30 people to commit to this I'll "refuse" any letters received so the Post Office can "Return To Sender" so make sure you all put a return address on any letters sent.
