Hello Everyone,

I re-did all my family files in the files section.  I found a 
new "report" in my family program.  I like it a lot better than the 
report I was using before.  It shows families from the bottom-up 
instead of the top-down.

Take a look at the files when you get a chance.  Here is the short 
description of the files.  (I didn't click the notify group of new 
file option.)

1) Includes last names of Gaeta and Raigosa, plus Ayon, Campos, 
Marques, Miramontes, Robles, Rodarte, and Romero.

2) Includes last names of Godina and Huizar, plus Avila and 
Miramontes.

3) Includes last names of Huerta and Huizar, plus Ayon, Cardenas, 
Castaneda, Correas, Gaeta, Miramontes, Robles, Rodriguez, Sandoval, 
Serrano, and Perez.

4) Includes last names of Huizar and Cardenas, plus Avila, Campos, 
Gaeta, Huerta, Miramontes, and Valdez.

5) Includes last names of Luna and Huizar, plus Campos, Faxias, 
Huerta, Miramontes, Robles, and Segueda.

6) Includes last names of Miramontes and Gaeta

Just a quick word about the digest version of the group. If anyone
starts to get an overflowing inbox because of the increased activity of
this group just change your subscription from "individual emails" to
"digest." If you have trouble with this just send me an email and I'll
do it for you.

We've had several new members join the group and I thought this message
should be reposted.

Welcome to the group all you new people. . .you know who you are. Please
do take some time to send us an introduction. Also a few words on the
surnames and geographical areas you're researching would be great. When
you are ready send me your Genealogy so I can post it to the
"non-public" Files section of the group.

Hello all!
 
I want to introduce myself to your group.  My name is Rosalinda Ruiz, 
and I've been working on my family tree for some time.  After 
interviewing my grandparents about their ancestors, I never really 
believed I would make any connections to more distant ancestors.  
Then I discovered three things in the period of six months last year 
(and this is truly inspirational for those who think discovering 
their family genealogy may never happen).  First, last April,  I 
visited www.rootsweb.com and typed in some family names.  I had done 
this periodically in the past, with no success.  However, I decided 
to try again, and I found a message that matched my BANUELOS family 
information!  The ancestor names and locations matched perfectly, so 
I emailed the person mentioned.  I found my second cousin once 
removed!  We shared information, and were finally able to meet last 
summer.  We also determined that we had met previously, in March of 
last year, when I took a group of

Rosalinda,

I saw your Antonio Ponce descendants file.  I too am searching a 
family you had listed.  Jose Cayetano Grano and Efigenia de la Rosa 
De La Covarrubias are my Great(x6)-Grandparents!  I will include a 
file of the information that I have on that couple soon, so we can 
compare.  I also have information on Maria Ynes Godina and Jose 
Antonio Jara.  I am distintantly related to Maria Ynes Godina and 
that is why I have information on that family.  I guess I know find 
out that I am also related to Jose Antonio Jara.  I also have 
information on Maira Sixta Sanchez and Jose Rafael Jara.  I am 
distintantly related to Maria Sixta Sanchez, on my Sanchez Side.  
Didn't relize that I was also connected on the Jara side.

It would be great if we could share information.  Would it be 
possible for me to get information on your sources for the ancestors 
of Jose Cayetano Grano and Efigenia de la Rosa De La Covarrubias.  I 
think I am set on their descendants, but have no information

What Diocese is Nochistlan in? Is Guadalajara the correct Diocese or ?

I was looking up to see what films were available for Nochistlan, Zacatecas
and came across the following:



Procesos matrimoniales 1676-1762 - 
VAULT INTL Film [ 226933 ]

Procesos matrimoniales 1763-1804 -  VAULT INTL Film [ 226934 ]



Now Matrimonios I know and Informacion Matrimonial I know, but Procesos Matrimoniales
I don't know.



So can someone in the know let me know what kind of info is found in these
records and how its different from the other two?



thanks,

Does anyone have this film? I'm going to eventually order it but thought

Is there anyone in the group that can't find their area in one of the
maps or map links given in the "files" or "links" section of the group?

If you can't find it let me know the name of the city and its
approximate location and I'll look for it at Duke.

joseph

I just uploaded Arturo Romero's 12 Ancestoral files to the "files" section.

This is great Arturo. I haven't had a chance to thoroughly look through
them but hope to get to them soon...thanks!

Now this should be a great example to everyone. . .common everyone send
in your files and we'll really be able to see if our Genealogies cross
somewhere in Jalisco or Zacatecas.

Last time I counted there were 29 members of the group and these are the
folks that have sent in their genealogies:

Angie Godina
Arturo Romero
Evie Villegas
Joseph Puentes
Maria Cortez
Rich&Kitty Cortez

Now I know that a couple of you sent in your work via email (PLEASE
resend me your genealogy directly to: makas@...) so I can then
take the information and put it into the "Files" section. Also in the
future I'd like to keep the genealogies strictly in the "Files" section
so if you must put them in an email send them directly to me and I'll
upload them to that area. Don't forget the "message" archives

Yes the Informacion Matrimonial films can be wonderful sources of info.
Yes sometimes disappointing but more times wonderful. 3-5 pages of info
about the couple then the groom then the bride then usually three
Testigos, testaments from people who knew the couple saying they weren't
related. I saw a record from Huejucar that Kitty Cortez sent me that had
4 generations of genealogy inserted. Yes there might be some wonderful
surprises awaiting you in these records.

Hi Angie:

In my experience viewing matrimonios versus Informacion matrimonials,
Informacion matrimonials are more detailed   They can sometimes
be two to three pages and they are usually testimonies of how the bride
and groom know each other, testimonies from other family members of how
they know the bride/groom etc.  Usually these records are found a
few months prior to the marriage possibly a month or two before the actual
wedding takes place.  One time I actually lucked out on viewing this
type of information in Michoacan records and they listed my maternal great-grandmother's
genealogy family tree three generations going back which was wonderful. 
On the matrimonios records I usually just find a few paragraphs giving
basic information on the marriage, date, padrinos etc., parents and sometimes
grandparents are listed if they are still living.

Hope this helps out!

Does anyone know.....

When I look up information for Mexico, Jalisco, Colotlan - Church 
records, it lists the film titles, dates, and number.  Does anyone 
know the difference between 'Información matrimonial' 
and 'Matrimonios'?  I am looking for information on a marriage that 
took place in 1881.  What information will I find in list (1) vs (2)?

(1) Información matrimonial 1880-1882 -  VAULT INTL Film [ 443732 ]
(2) Matrimonios 1875-1896 -  FHL INTL Film [ 443787 ]

12. Maps of the Pimeria: Early Cartography of the Southwest
http://www.library.arizona.edu/pimeria/welcome.html

The Pimeria was a region (never defined with any exacting detail) of Spanish
colonial Mexico that encompassed what is now southern Arizona and northern
Sonora. Derived from the Pima Indians who live in the region, the name first
appeared on a map prepared in 1696. This online collection consists of over
thirty separate maps, ranging in date from 1556 to 1854. Each map features
detailed cataloging information, along with a brief profile of the
cartographer responsible for creating each document. A built-in viewer also
allows visitors to zoom in and out of each map, as well as adjust the pixel
size to their liking. The site is rounded out by a discussion of the methods
used to create the online exhibit

I posted a new link in the Links section.  I came across this Jalisco 
and Zacatecas Rootsweb family tree with over 5000 individuals.  It's 
very complete and detailed.

I'd love to send you a pile of names of my maternal grandmothers
relatives, but as I previously said I don't know which is any of the
Atotonilco's she came from and even which if any of these three names is
her real name: Adela Torres, Maria Garcia or Antonia Lopez.

I'll be spending some significant time looking through some US Census
records and will consider how to proceed with my guessing research in
the Atotonilco area.

thanks so much for your kind offer of help to the group, very generous.

such a small place. If you have names you would like me to look up,
