Nueva Galicia

Hi Joseph:
 
Tough assignment, trying to
determine which states are covered on this  "Nueva Galicia" map.  The
boundries are not well defined.
 
I'll give it a try.  The map
covers the area of Mexico from about 23 degrees North latitude to about
18 degrees North latitude. If you look at a modern map of Mexico,
you'll see the following States are inside this area: Nayarit, southern
part of Sinaloa,  Jalisco, Michoacan, Guerrero, Southern part of
Zacatecas, Aguascalientes, Mexico, Guanajuato, Veracruz, San Luis
Potosí and I probably missed a couple.
 
I have a book that shows a map of
Nueva Galicia in the XVI century. It defines the area sorrounded by
these places:  (Starting in the South and going clock-wise ) 
Queretaro, Guadalajara, El Teúl, Colotlan, Durango, Cuencamé, Parras,
Saltillo, Ciudad Valles.  Inside the area are: Guanjuato,
Jalostotitlan, Zacatecas, and San Luis Potosi.  You got to remember
that La Nueva Galicia 

Juaregui's/Xauregui's

Irma, I think you may have hit on a good point because according to, Jose Luis Vasquez y Rodriguez de Frias' book titled Genealogia de Nochistlan , Antiguo Reino de la Nueva Galicia en el Siglo XVII, he does not chronicle Jauregui or Yñiguez. In his book he not only covers Nochistlan but also includes, Aguascalientes, Ayo El Chico, Mexticacan, Santa Maria de los Lagos, Teocaltiche, Tepatitlan, Xalostitlan y La Sagrada Mitra de Guadalajara.
 
According to the IGI, the highest concentration of Jauregui's settled within a 100 mile radius area of Nochistlan Zac and Mexticacan Jalisco which are about a 15 minute drive from each other. That would include Jalostitlan, Ixtlahuacan del Rio, Teocaltiche, Jalpa, Encarnacion de Diaz, Yahualica, Ameca and Tepatitlan de Morelos and a few others not mentioned here.. Mexticacan has the highest concentration of Jauregui's but Nochistlan's Jauregui's date back further than does Mexticacan. I did find
one older entry in Autlan de Navarro Jalisco.
 

Retonos de Espana en la Nueva Galicia

That would be interesting to know.  The
Jauregui surname is quite common in present day Jalostotitlan,
Jal. & N. Calif. (immigrants from same area.)  Maybe they were
newcomers as opposed to the early settlers mentioned in Retonos

Ray,

Unfortunately, I don't see Jauregui or Iniguez in the
Plan General de
la Obra.  The spelling of the names are standardized
throughout his
books.  However, that doesn't mean they won't be
included in the new
edition.  I understand he's including some new
surnames.  Does anyone
know what additional surnames will be
included?

Iniquez appears to be Basque also. See http://www.gaminggeeks.org/Resources/
KateMonk/Europe-Western/Basque/Surnames.htm. If you look up the surnname in the 
Mormon database, a large percentage of Iniquez people in Southwest Europe are from the 
Basque Countries. 

In addition, there is a reference in one of the message boards to Iniquez and a French 
person. See http://genforum.genealogy.com/iniguez/messages/1.html. This would not be 
unusual since the French Basques and Spanish Basques had much in common, as did the 
French Catalonians and Spanish Catalonians. Spain is a nation but there are many 
dissenters still; the Basques and Catalonian are passionate about their lands and people. 
The French Catalonia area is just as much

Los Angelos area is good for me.

Date: Thu, 15 Dec 2005 04:29:11 -0000

Hi all!  I just thought I'd write to ask who may be interested in a
Southern California or maybe even a Central California meeting.
Since I was so impressed with the Sacramento meeting, I would like
to arrange something similar, since I'm sure there are many members
who would like to meet in the Southern California region.

Please tell me the following:

1.  Do you prefer a meeting in the Los Angeles area or Central
California, as someone suggested in a previous message, so that
members in Northern California could meet us?

2.  Is January or February the best month for you?


If I can get ideas as to timing and interest, I can then offer
choices.

Thanks!

Southern California Meeting

I would try; it depends on the date. I live in Rancho Cucamonga in southern
California (just west of San Bernardino and about 60 miles east of Los
Angeles).

Retonos de Espana en la Nueva Galicia

José,

 

My mother's line is the Iniguez I am researching.  She once told me her family (the number of people) was not very large and my search so far seems to confirm this. 

As regards where was/is the area of Nueva Galicia, John Gonzalez's message fairly well defined the early boundaries of the area.

Hello Maria:
 
Do you can search for "Gonzalez Morçillo (or Morzillo)" surname in your copy of Tomo I, of the book mentioned?
 
Thanks, very much.

Some families do extend to other states, so you might find some of
your ancestry covered in one of
the chapters.  I have a copy of Tomo
I which contains a "Plan general de la obra" for all the subsequent
Tomos (II - VI) and has all the surnames covered.  If anyone wants me
to check for any surnames send me an e-mail.

Each chapter begins with the first settlers and then traces their
male descendancy. Sources are cited for every bit of data.
