Josie, I'm not sure this is what you're interested in, but I was at the UTSA FHC this evening, and the librarian said he could make photos of microfilm entries for me there. I thanked him, but I had nothing to photograph, yet. If this is what you need, perhaps your FHC could communicate with this one. Alice Blake

Hola,

Es mi primer día que entro a este Portal y apenas lo estoy conociendo. Me gusta investigar de genealogía, he investigado del área de Saltillo, Coah., pero también estoy investigando de mis otras líneas que son de los ALTOS DE JALISCO (Teocaltiche, Jalostotitlán, San Miguel el Alto, San Juan de los Lagos, Encarnación, Lagos de Moreno).

Where is this conference at and how does one register?

Hello everyone:

Gaspar Macias Valadez married Mariana Torres in 1612 and they had:Nicolas Macias Valadez 1613, Blas Macias Valadez 1615, Polonia Macias Valadez 1617, Maria Macias Tavera or Vasquez de Retamosa 1620. Do anyone has a marriage for any of Gaspar and Mariana´s childen?

I don't see why not. George Farias gets some of his books from Mexico. Just send him an email.

I found an ancestor on the IGI with a reference to Santa Maria Mecatabasco, Villa Del Refugio, Zacatecas, Mexico. In checking the "films," on ranchos I found the Batch Number and Film listed in the Villanueva, Zacatecas section, with the following....

Mr. Alderete,

I came across your fascinating genealogy website while doing some research on your ancestor, Trinidad Rodriguez. I am very interested in sources for additional information about him and especially for any photographs which might exist, for use in a museum exhibit.

Just a reminder that when conducting genealogy research once the resource Familysearch.org has been exhausted it's time to order films in the area where one believes the families are from.

I am desperately searching a RANCHO en JALISCO on a map that would actually show on the map. But I have unsuccessfully looking for on the internet. The rancho is called "EL PAPELOTE" I heard it is just north of San Julian. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I can obtain this information. This would be very much appreciated.

Anteriormente pedi ayuda con lo siguiente pero solo lo hice en ingles, disculpas.
ya e recivido algunas respuestas mas sigo un poco confusa.

Aguascalientes, Aguascalientes.

Saludos,
Busco informacion sobre mis antepasados de Aguascalientes, principalmente los miembros de la familia Jayme/Xaime.
Ya he utilizado con buen exito la biblioteca de los Mormonas pero me falta mucha informacion.

Don't forget to bring the the Sanchez Navarro book to the next meeting.

Thanks,

Now if there only was an index available:(
I already have the one capitulo, but my family might be covered in others.

The San Antonio Library kindly photocopied capitulo 58 for me. I'm sure they would do so again.

Since I still cannot sort out the relationship of my husband's gg-grandfather to the widowed man his mother married long after his and his brothers' births (no father mentioned in the records), I was surprised when looking for my father's ancestors that sometimes the fathers of "hijos naturales" were mentioned (exposed?) in the records even when the father was married to someone else. I kind of suspect that in some cases a woman who had children out of wedlock had been impregnated by a married man and could not marry him until he was "free" ("viudo" after his previous wife died) to be made an honest woman of.
