It looks like most Rubios connect back to these guys in la Nueva Galicia. I have several rubios about 5 times. My line ends at Don Diego Rubio de Monrroy of Guadalajara. I only have the marriage date of the IGI.

Aunque definitivamente no soy un experto me pongo a sus ordenes para acompañarlos, con todos los recursos que esten a mi alcance, en este tan ambicioso proyecto que es un justo reconocimiento a la labor que ustedes desarrollan al frente del grupo. Enhorabuena y felicidades para todos ustedes.

Lo siguiente es una traduccion de un mensaje que enviamos en ingles el 9 de octubre y que se ha traducido gracias a la generosidad de nuestro miembro David Delgado.

The following is a translation of a message that was sent out in English on October 9 and which has been translated thanks to the generosity of our member David Delgado.

I am so excited, I bought the book last week and I will surely be getting it this week or the next.

Best Regards
Humberto

Joseph Puentes and Members,

Batch M602979/#0282233 Marriages 1880-1885

Ronnie,

I found your message interesting. I have been searching for my Reynoso's for many years. My grandfather, Francisco Reynoso o Renteria used to say that the family records could be found in Jalisco. He never talked much about the family in Mexico and when he did he liked to mix truth with untruth. One never knew what could be believed. I have had to find original source records and prove what I believed to be correct. More fun!

Esther asked how much room the software takes...

FamilySearch Indexing takes up about 20-30 MBs.

There have been a lot of questions about indexing, and I doubt that all can be addressed in the mailing list. If you want to learn more you can visit http://www.familysearchindexing.org and click the "Help" tab at the top of the screen. These tutorials will explain a lot about the program in general. Specific instructions will be made available when your pilot project begins. I would recommend that everyone go through lessons 1, 3 & 4 to get a basic understanding of how the program works.

Dear Nuestros Ranchos Members:

This afternoon, Joseph, Mickey and I had a conference call with Ruth Schirmacher and Lynn Turner of the Family History Library in Salt Lake City where they proposed that Nuestros Ranchos serve as the pilot group to use Family Search's new digital online indexing technology to index Latin American records.

Thanks Joseph for recording the conversation, I am such an auditory learner.
I have some questions about being involved as an indexer (not an
arbitrator..lol).

Questions:
1) Where would we get the census and notary records that are being asked for

Did anybody go to the Texas Hispanic Conference?

I was hoping for some kind report or article.

Carlos de Esparza & Rafael de Esparza

Carlos arrived in Ecuador in 1582

Rafael arrived in Mexico City in 1578 (before Lope!)

I have no doubt there related somehow, they descend from the same House of Esparza.

Hello,

I just wanted to let everyone know, that Lynn Turner a member of the Ranchos
group, will be teaching at the conference in Salt Lake. So I suggest that
those of us, that attend stop by and say hi, to Lynn.

Hey everyone...

I just posted on my blog the latest schedule for the annual Hispanic genealogy
and family history conference at the FHL (Family History Library) in Salt Lake
City. I posted it before the FHL did, shh...

I just returned from Jalpa, Zacatecas. As someone mentioned and I already
knew Jalpa records are skimpy....very skimpy. What I found out and yet to
verify. The Arechigas arrived in Jalpa at approx 1820, it was 7 brothers and one

Hello everybody! I wento the FHC and happen to notice they had the Catalogos a Indias from 1509-1680. I quicky remembered about Don Lope! So I scanned myself a copy of Lope and his maestro Don Enrique de Manleon.

I have just posted a new link in the LINKS section of the site that points to the site of the Biblioteca Publica del Estado de Jalisco which is run under the auspices of the Universidad de Guadalajara.

Is there a resource for early marriage records from Aguascalientes, Aguascalientes. There appears to be no filmed marriage records prior to 1663.

I am looking for the marriage of Felipe Diaz de Santiago with Isabel de Turises which should have occured sometime between 1630 and 1640.

Hola a Todos!

This person would like to know about the Villasenor/Cervantes/Lara
ancestral lines. You can either email me your replies or to the group
and I'll forward the messages.

Let me suggest that you visit the "Mexico folder" link below, of a new Family Search (Research Wiki - Beta) page that contains all-around information about finding ancestors in Mexico.

It includes about 50 recent Articles (written this year by LDS family history experts), - - - with descriptive information, links and references with a high quantity of research sources, bibliographies, disertations, monographs, lessons, and other concepts relating to research about ancestries in Mexico.

I am a descendant of the Juan Caliz also. I descend throught the Arredondos who married Santos COy and the Yslas Palacios of the mining area of Villaldama, Nuevo Leon who also married Santos Coy.

THe dna testing the results posted out on Gary Felix's Genealogy of Mexico website suggest a semitic origin to the family.

I have attached a pdf file of what I have so far. I have used the books of Garemendia Leal and the archives of monterrey as sources for this information.

2) Under the first name put either "Jose" or "Maria"
