Hi, my name if Francisco Escobar. I hit a brick wall with my earliest ancestor, Felipe Escovar or Escobar who married Maria Guadalupe Ramires or Ramirez. I obtained their names from a Marriage Information Record for their son Bruno Escobar, who was married in the state of Michoacan.
I was able to find a sister to Bruno. Her name was Maria Paula Escobar Ramires or Ramirez. She was baptized in 3 February 1805, Atotonilco El Alto, Jalisco, Mexico. She was born on 24 January 1805, San Juanico, Lagos de Moreno, Jalisco, Mexico. For those who are interested, she later married, and for some reason, her name changed by the record keeper who wrote her information in her marriage 24 MAY 1827, Santiago Apostol,Numaran,Michoacan. He wrote Maria Petra Escobar. He got her parents name correctly.
My 85 year old father said that based on Maria's date of birth, she was born in the month where there are two catholic patron saints which are celebrated, Saint Peter where Petra is the feminine form of the name Peter, and Saint Paul where the Paula is the feminine form of Paul.
I am certain that they had other siblings, most likely were born in Jalisco.
I also have Hilario Zarate who married Maria de Jesus Garnica, around 1833. I am not sure if they were married in Guanajuato, Michoacan, or in Jalisco, like most of my ancestors once lived in Jalisco, before migrating to Guanajuato, Michoacan and the USA.
Thanks
Francisco Escobar
