Description

These forum posts are from the old “Ranchos Archives” which was part of a Yahoo Groups system that operated between 2003-2006. This was a hybrid of electronic mailing lists and internet message boards. The files are “Read Only” and many of the users of the Yahoo Groups are not part of the new NuestrosRanchos membership, so keep this in mind when viewing these message posts and replies.

Greetings and Introduction

Hello, Janet. I remember you from a message board in Genealogy.com . 
Unfortunately, we found out that there are no close matches in our 
family tree. Something interesting, I noticed, by looking at message 
boards, that there are a lot, and I mean A LOT, of Curiel's in the 
area of Atenguillo-Guachinango-Mascota. You know, with all the 
people researching Curiel ancestors from Atenguillo and close 
villages we can create a new group exclusive for this surname in 
this area.

That reminds me. Joseph, is it ok to invite another genealogist to 
this group? I am very sure that he is serious about his research. 
And yes, he is probably a distant Curiel primo.

Greetings and Introduction

Hello, possible primo.

I will have this is the Cervantes family that I have on my file.
Marcelo Cervantes, married Maria Salazar before 1821. So far, I have 
verified four relatives. I have found others on the IGI, but I don't 
put them on my file until I see with my own eyes the actual 
microfilm or document where they are described. The children on my 
file are: Cruz Cervantes born aroun 1821 in Los Pozos and married 
with Maria Rita Apodaca, Maria Guadalupe Cervantes born around 1825 
in San Marcos and married with Nemecio Apodaca, Ysidro Cervantes, 
born around 1832 in San Marcos and married with Martina Gil, and 
Higinia Cervantes born around 1846 and never married according to 
her death certificate from 1916. As soon as I find some free time, I 
will order some microfilms to find the baptim documents of the 
Cervantes kids. I approximated their birth date from their marriage 
or death records. 

By the way, Angel, Zacoalco is actually a big municipio. There are 
about 25,000

I'm also partial to continuing with the Ranchos 2 idea.  I've worked with Myfamily.com before and it is a good site, but with everyone in this group familiar with the current Ranchos site I think it is a better way to go.

to post genealogies, but it wouldn't be private like the Yahoo site. But
it would be private in that only members would know the address. Well I
guess that's really not private as someone could just wander into the
site and look at everyone's genealogy. Or some future disgruntled member
could go and post the webpages address all over the internet.

    Yes, I definitely would
like to keep our genealogies private.  I would hate to see our hard work
show up in someone's published work without our permission &
knowledge.  We've all worked too hard to see it all go public.
    How does My Family.com
work?  Although I like the keeping our genealogies in Ranchos 1 and all
other info in Ranchos 2 idea better.
 
My ever-humble opinion.  Since when has
a Jaliciense ever been humble?

Your idea sounds quite good.  I really don't think it would be too
much of a hassle to have to register to the other site.  We should keep
our private genealogies right here in Ranchos (1) and put other files and
messages in Ranchos2.  But having the other site sounds like a perfectly
good idea.

I'm going to work on a Ranchos2 because I'm most familiar with how to do
that. The myFamily sounds good, but me being familiar with Yahoo gave
that option the nudge. I'm hoping it will be as simple as putting info
into the Ranchos2 file area and linking to it in the Ranchos1 Links area.


Here's what I need from everyone. In about 1 week I'm going to have the
new group up and running. I'm then going to subscribe everyone to that
group.


Soooo that means that if you take acception to me doing this you need to
tell me. Just a simple, "don't subscribe me to the Ranchos2 group" reply
will do.


thanks,

joseph

ps: this is not written in stone yet so if there are more options that
people want to voice I'm still looking for ideas. If we don't use them
now we might in the future.

File Storage Problem

An option could be to use MyFamily.com.  It is private
and secure.  Individuals must be registered as members
and must have a userid and password to access the
information.  You have access to 5MB of storage for
free.  You can also increase your storage to 105MB for
a fee of $19.95 per year.  More storage is available
for more money.

We could start a second YahooGroup called Ranchos2 and use the 20,000kb
of the files in that group to store genealogies but then everyone would
need to be subscribed to that group as well. . .a bit of a hassle but
not to hard to
