Seems that awhile ago there was a message about slaveowners in Jerez.
If anyone has other documents or information on Hispanics who owned
slaves here is someone interested in that information.

HISPANICS WHO
OWNED SLAVES



Dr. Jerry D. Thompson of Laredo is looking for information on Hispanics
who
owned slaves.

His interest is primarily in Hispanics from Texas who had slaves but he
would
also be interested

in those from Mexico who were slave holders.



Dr. Thompson is a professor of History at Texas A&M University in
Laredo
and is an authority

on the U.S. Civil War in the Southwest



Please reply either directly to Jerry Thompson [jthompson@...] and

Hispanic Research Conference @NARA

breakfast on Sunday or coffee Saturday.


if you have those details handy why not post them to the group. I will
eventually dig them out but I'm not sure when. Is it only the one day?


thanks again,

joseph

Introduction: Campos/Alvarez Family



okay all you Martin del Campo's out there. . .is this another cousin or
a branch you all didn't know about? Do you need to do more research
before you tie in???



I'm confident you all can do it. . .lets try to bring this Campos back
into the family after all these couple of hundred of years. I have
visions of a couple of hundred years ago one of the Martin del Campo
primos moving from one part of Los Altos to another and losing track of
the main trunk of the family and then getting permanently separated
until that is many many years later Carol Lester does extensive
research and joins Ranchos and suddenly the different branches find one
another and the trunk is made stronger by uniting again. Es como un
sueno. . .

Hello to everyone. My name is Carol Lester.  I began researching my family back in 1997.  I found researching my American family challenging, yet also found an abundance of people and paper trails

It was when I began researching my Spanish roots that I began to hit brick walls.  I soon found there was neither people nor paper trails to come by very easily.  And while I have accomplished much, I still have much to accomplish.  It is my hope that others will benefit from this accumulated research and will help me add to it.

Some interesting History

Hello Irma:

Sounds like cruel and unusual punishment to me, but who knows some people's reasoning for some things?!  

Martin Del Campos?...Where is he from and when was he born and where? Give me some feedback..I come from a very LONG line of "Campos"!!

By the way, Joseph is working on putting my file together for the group to view.  It should be available before long.  You will see I wasn't KIDDING about my long line!!

both look great. I found some ranchos on the other that weren't on
Encarta, but the details looked better on Encarta. Both are good and
I'm adding them to the links file for "Maps."



thanks Ed, Thanks Lorenzo

I went to Sevilla and also went to the Archivo.  You just do not walk
in.  You need letters, pictures.....then you will get a card which will
allow you in....

I was looking for census records....they were in the Guadalajara
Archives.....they can be obtained in Mexico City....I got the 1777
Durango Census from Archivo de las Indias....
