Have you checked with the Archives in Mexico City?  Also, you may be
able to find them in the church records.

Hello Jonathan,

Thanks for your insight about this matter.  

Do you have an idea what kind of changes are going to be made in the 
extraction program in SLC?  Are things not moving along fast enough 
or something?

Copies of the Parish and Vital Records List

thank you so much for this kind offer. . .



For those considering requesting this highly valuable and info packed
CD i'd suggest that you email him and toss in a little
something for the time, trouble, and cost of mailing. Believe me the
material is well worth a nice offering especially if you are doing
research in other estados of Mejico.



but please do contact him off list at the
email address given in this email below. . .don't just hit reply and
say, "Me too" or "send me a copy as well" or words of that affect.



thanks,



joseph

For all of you, who are wanting a copy of the Parish and Vital Records
list, please send me your mailing address.  Because, due to the size
of the file(25 meg),  I am going to just burn a CD, with the Parish
and Vital Records list and other Mexican genealogical information,
that I've collected over the years.  And send it, to those who want a
copy.

Thanks,

There are a lot of films, that are still waiting to be extracted. 
Also, there alot of batch numbers, that are not on the Parish and
Vital Records list.

I am aware, that there are people, who have gotten permission, from
Salt Lake, to extract all the records, from a certain area.  I would
assume, that one needs to contact the Extraction Deptment, in Salt
Lake.  And from, what I've heard lately, there is going to be some
changes, in the extraction program, later on this year.

thanks,
Jonathan

Madrid and Barcelona

Joseph:



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....

Poll results for ranchos

okay things are heating up. genealogy is something that happens over a
long time period of time so between now and say Feb 2006 when I
reconsider this topic in the form of another poll maybe we can start
gathering up enough votes to swing the majority in respect to the
percentages I indicated to be a valid vote. Afterall it wasn't like I
didn't give the group a chance to change things. And as for less
strict, hmmm, the axe is still going to swing on about 10 members come
3/15/2005 if I don't at least get the smallest amount of communication.



thanks for your participation. . .i like passion,



joseph

I
totally agree with Mr. Duarte. I understand the importance of
documentation but I believe for our purposes that communication is of
utmost importance, all things considered---availability of computers
and software, as well as understanding of genealogy procedures.



Those that have learned to search and document can
