Relationship terminology

Hi All,

Legally, Mexican codes define and accept three kinds of relationships: 
consanguinity (related by blood) 
affinity (acquired by marriage) 
civil (by adoption) 

I found a good link that explains this.  Please see it below: 
http://www.dropby.com/indexLF.html?content=/Genealogia/parentesco.html 

On the real world, however, Guillermo is right.  Any kid from one of your cousins is your nephew/niece and he can call you tío/tía.

Genealogy Societies in Mexico

Hi Joseph,

Not genealogical societies in the strict sense, but I understand that most of the cronistas locales or "town chroniclers" have an national association of their own that includes all of México.

Last summer I made a trip with a brother to Totatiche and Villa Guerrero, Jalisco, and we met Don Esteban Valdez, the chronicler of Totatiche.  He has a very good Valdez genealogy book and I understand he's currently working on a new book that will include other local surnames.  He also mentioned something about this chronicler association, in fact he said that one of her sisters was also a chronicler but in a nearby town, not sure if he said Colotlán.

Anyway, I'm going to try to write Don Esteban a few lines and ask him if he knows about genealogical societies in Jalisco and nearby states.

Tepechitlan Records

cool. I didn't think to look there. . in fact I didn't see it come up
when I did my search. You guys are top notch [thats easier than saying
i'm low notch]. Thanks Prima for the information. . .I hate ordering
that film for only that one record but one day I will. For times such
as this I wished I lived in SLC. Maybe one day when I retire.

This has happened to be on serveral occassions where I have a record 
but it doesn't list a source batch no. or film no.  But then I look 
at it a couple of months later and it has a source.  Or it has a 
source and I print it out and then a couple of months later I look at 
it again and it is slightly different.  So I print that version out 
too.

Also, sometimes there is a differences between IGI and VRI.  That 
same record looks slighty different in VRI.  Here it is:

My updated Files: Los Altos de Jalisco

Hello everyone,


I was fortunate enough to get to Salt Lake City last month and visit the Family History Library.  During my visit I gathered lots of documents, and just finished updating my files in Los Altos de Jalisco. 


Take care,


Roberto

Tepechitlan Records

I need some insight. This record came up and I don't know what to make
of it. Usually there is a film number associated with the film but only
a batch number appears. If I go to Tepechitlan I can see that the film
that should be associated with this date should be:



Bautismos
1783-1811
FHL INTL Film    444026



would anyone have any insight as to why this number didn't appear with
the following record unless maybe it shouldn't be associated with it?:


Maria Maccedonia Marques
  Female    

Event(s):
Birth: 
Christening: 
08
AUG 1787  
Tepechitlan,
Zacatecas, Mexico
Death: 
Burial: 

Parents:
