Fabulous idea and when i get some time I'll work on getting my list of films
available to put in the files section. thanks.



yes the spirit of cooperation. . .in time we are going to develope into a
fine tuned researching machine for others to pattern themselves. Certainly
the Rootsweb groups leave a lot to be desired in this respect.

Stella,
Thanks for the offer to do lookups for the group. I don't have anyone 
I am looking for in that area that I know of, but I appreciate the 
offer just the same. I think this is where we can really help one 
another.  I was thinking we should have a place where we post what 
film(s) we are currently viewing in case anyone in the group needs a 
lookup done for them.  I recently asked Helyn for a lookup and she 
graciously agreed.  Thank you Helyn!

I am currently viewing film #0628877. This is the first film for 
Ixtlahuacan del Rio, Jalisco and it covers baptisms for the years 
1801-1818. I should mention that

1801-1818. I should mention that the books on this film are for a 
parroquia that was an offshoot of the Parroquia de San Felipe, 
Cuquio, Jalisco.  The parroquia was called "Hayuda de la Parroquia de 
San Miguel de Quelitan feligresia de Cuquio".  I think the parroquia 
de Ixtlahuacan del Rio was founded later.  Anyway, I would be happy 
to do lookups for others as well.

thats great. You just
never know how the padrinos are going to be related. They could be the
abuelos, siblings, tios, primos, or just exceptionally close friends of the
family. The older records before 1800 seem to stop giving the abuelos but you
still have the padrinos listed. so in the older records they take on a more
important role since there is now less information in each

they take on a more important role since there is now less information in
each record to work with. I guess the point I'm making is that learning to
dig, dig, dig every little bit of information from each record, leaving no
rock unturned now will help you much later when you are working with less
info in the records.



Others I'm sure can add much to what info I try to dig out of a post 1800
baptismal record. . .here's my list of what I try to find.



1) of course the written details of the child.

2) the names of the parents

3) the names of the grandparents

4) the names of the padrinos

5) I do a person search on each name given in the record being careful to
do a search with the exact

Joseph,

thats a good idea, taking a copy of the indexes  (sp?)  anyways I have done what you have said and yes have found other people......infact the padrina to my padrina........was one of my moms best friends and she didn't even know it!!!......my padrina/madrina....is my moms sister but she is 10 years younger than my mom.

Great job Stella,



Wow you are really digging in and doing your own research. . .go girl! I
wish I had relatives in totatiche for you to help me find. . .that would
mean we might be relatives too. You never know but later we might find some
there too.



uh, ummm, just wondering but have you done a page by page study of each film
from beginning to end? If not some of my greatest finds have been when I'm
not searching for anyone in particular but just trying to find any relatives
I might come across.



just a suggestion but I'd recommend if you haven't already done this,  go
back and slowly scan each record paying careful attention to the wives of
each of the abuelos. Also write down any padrinos that look like they might
be related. Many times the padrinos are related. And if you are lucky the
padrinos are a married couple and are closely related. Then you can do a
parent search for them and see who else you can find maybe on another film.




If you've decided to really let the films go
