Just passing along a website of Jerez, Jalisco, that I just received from another group: Pagina Web de Apellidos de Ancestros del sur de Zacatecas face="Courier New">http://cabral.galeon.com Thanks, Jonathan Jonathan Walker

I have a very simple request if we each do our own small part. Or a
large job if I have to do it. I just worked on helping someone in the
group. but with over 50 members I can easily forget which profiles are
which names and thereby not know how to link the genealogies (listed
under the persons name to the person subscribed under a different profile.
here is what I'd like each of you to do: 1) go to the files area
2) if your genealogy is on this page go to the far right of your name
and click on the word "edit"
3) when the window opens in the space called "Folder name" put your
email address next to your name.
4) click "save changes" 5) you're done look at it and it should look like my folder or something similar to this: Joseph Puentes' Ancestors makas@... thanks, joseph
Ranchos 2 is up and running. If you are logged on and can access the
files and links area of the original Ranchos group you should be able to
seemlessly go to the Ranchos 2 "file" area by clicking on the "Ranchos2"
link in the links area of the original Ranchos group.
If any of you can't access Ranchos2 via this link well maybe I forgot or
"couldn't" add you email address to the Ranchos2 membership list. If
this is the case email me directly (makas@...) and we'll talk
about it.
thanks, joseph makas@...

I have a suggestion and its not a big deal for now if you don't follow it.
I'd prefer any genealogies submitted in the future to be in the
genealogy report format rather than the chart format.
my reasons: 1) the charts eat up space compared to the reports 2) you can get so much more info in the reports 3) the reports can be sent in using .rtf format thanks, joseph

Hi everyone,
As all of you no doubt already know, oftentimes a baby was baptized with the name of the saint on whose day he or she happened to be born. I am such an example. I was born on November 28, so I was baptized and named after St. Stephen the Younger, Patron Saint of Iconoclasts and Numismatists. My middle name, Francisco, is in honor of St. Francis of Assisi. I'm sure everyone out there has ancestors or living family members who have names which correspond to the saint on whose feast day they were born.
I say this because St. Gil and St. Hermenegildo were two different saints, have two different feast days, and as such are both two different names. Gil, and the female form, Gila, are not shortened forms for Hermenegildo. Hermenegildo could be shortened to Meregildo or Gildo, and a female Hermenegilda, could be nicknamed Meregilda or Gilda. San Gil's feast day is September 1 and San Hermenegildo's is April 13. In fact both men were pretty much contemporaries.

not sure this is going to shed any light on your question but at least its related.
from this website this is what is said:
http://www.behindthename.com/nmc/spa2.html
HERMENEGILDO m Spanish, Portuguese
Spanish and Portuguese form of a Gothic name which meant "complete sacrifice" from Germanic ermen "whole, entire" and gild "sacrifice".
