My ancestor's testamento states he was "originario de Zacatecas" and that is
why I am assuming he was from the city of Zacatecas. It is very possible he
was from the area around Zacatecas (city) and that is why I am having such a
difficult time locating info on him. His name was Juan Antonio Liendo and
he married Catalina de la Rosa probably in the late 1600s. Their son (also
named Juan Antonio Liendo) left his will dated 1771 in Saltillo where he
states he was from Zacatecas. I have researched Liendos from the early
1700s to the present and (from what I have researched and documented) they
all descend from this couple. There are a few Liendos that were in Autlan de
Navarro, Jalisco, a few in Durango and a few from Distrito Federal (Mexico
City) but the majority will be found in Saltillo and Tamaulipas. There are
also a lot of Liendos in Peru, Bolivia, Argentina, Venezuela, Chile and
Spain. It is possible that my ancestor "got off the boat in Mexico" or
traveled from one of these other countries to get to Zacatecas and then went
to Saltillo and on to Tamaulipas and into Texas.
I have a friend in Aguascalientes who told me she has seen the surname in
Morelia and Michoacan so I will see what I can find there. Since the name
is a rare one I keep any and all info I find on ANY document pertaining to a
Liendo.
Any assistance is appreciated!
