TRYING TO FIND THE TYPE OF INDIO MY AUNT WAS
There are many people from the region that would like to know which Indian
tribes their ancestors came from but there really is no way to know for
sure. We know that the original Indians in the area were zacatecos,
cazcanes, tecuexes and guachichiles see
http://www.inafed.gob.mx/work/enciclopedia/EMM14jalisco/municipios/1403…
Encarnación cuenta con un gran legado rico en historia y evolución que ha
dejado su huella. Ya en los comienzos del actual milenio se encontraba el
territorio intensamente transitado por diversos pueblos chichimecas como
los tecuexes, guachichiles, zacatecos y caxcanes quienes de una vida social
de cazadores pasaron al nomadismo y luego a la forma aldeana. Dejaron
vestigios de su civilización en la zona arqueológica ubicada en la meseta
del Tule al suroeste del municipio.
There were tribes of Tlaxcaltecas and Otomíes that assisted the Spaniards
in the Chichimeca war and mixed and settled with the local Indians so you
could have a mix.
Here is another page that is about the Indians of Jalisco -
http://www.houstonculture.org/mexico/jalisco_indig.html
You might have some Aztec ancestry but if so it is probably a minority of
your Indian ancestry.
It's unfortunate that so many people from the region, even my own close
relatives, think that we have Aztec ancestry when we likely have very
little.
My grandmother had a lot of Indian ancestors from Encarnación de Díaz.

Armando I agree finding the correct band or tribe is very hard. My paternal line is from Zacatecas and my maternal in Jalisco but in Michoacán before that. I did have the MTDNA test done to see the nationality of my first Mother. It came back haplogroup A and the bands/tribes include Nahua which is part of the Aztec nation. Sadly I have not been able to take it further back then mid 1800's in Michoacán but I will keep looking but on my paternal line in Jerez, Zac I don't think I will ever know the exact Native lines I have.

Indian Roots in Mexico
For those of you looking for your Indian roots in Mexico, be sure to check out the published, "Essays and Research on Indigenous Mexico" by John Schumal (historian, genealogist, lecture and associate editor of online monthly newsletter, www.somosprimos.com, plus he's a good friend of Nuestros Ranchos and many other genealogy sites!) Following is the address:

Yes, Nahua is a UtoAztecan language and mtDNA is found among the Nahua
speakers but mtDNA A is not specific to Nahua, it is found all over the
Americas all the way from Alaska to Argentina. So even though it found
among Nahua it is also found among Mayans, Zapotecas, and Purépechas which
all speak different languages. So you are correct in stating that you might
never know which Native lines you have.
For a list of studies that include mtDNA A see the links at
http://dna-explained.com/2013/09/18/native-american-mitochondrial-haplo…
The following study shows that A1 (A2 descends from A1) exists in Native
tribes from the Tarahumara (Rarámuri) and peaks in the Maya.
http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0044…
A recently published study shows that A2 existed in Argentina in ancient
remains they have found. It probably still does exist there. You can
download the PDF to see the tables.
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ahg.12075/suppinfo
To see a list of mtDNA groups that descend from A1 do a CRL+F for G1442A at
http://www.phylotree.org/tree/subtree_N.htm
A1 descends from A which descends from N which is why the subtree starts
with N.

Indians of Mexico
I come from a tribe that lived in the valleys of southeast part of Zacatecas and northern Jalisco.
They were the Huichols tribe.

That is soooo cool Rudy, that you know which tribe you come from. Most of
us can only guess based on where our ancestors lived. In that part of
Zacatecas and Jalisco there were the Huicholes, Caxcanes, Guachichiles and
the Zacatecos who were from Northern Zacatecas.
Thanks for sharing.

Hello Juan.
I commented on that study earlier today. There was already a thread on it
at http://www.nuestrosranchos.org/es/node/22310

TRYING TO FIND THE TYPE OF INDIO MY AUNT WAS
yeah i haven't figured out what tribe my native ancestors were from either. in the region my mom's ancestors came from, the main tribes there were huichols, caxcans, zacatecos, and the tlaxacalan colonists.
