Hola y gracias:

Me ha encantado la relación que compartiste ya que contiene el nombre de las estancias que hubo en la zona de Sierra de Pinos, pues muchos de los trabajos históricos que describen las haciendas se refieren a los siglos XIX y XX.

Con cuidado voy a revisar cada uno de los registros para saber si existe alguna relación con los linajes que he venido estudiando.

Te deseo un buen fin de año, que te encuentres contento y próspero en compañía de los que más quieres.

Hola a todos:

Hay varias personas de la familia Ruelas o Roelas en ésta relación. Aunque no me toca estudiar éste linaje en el nodo 23639 propuse el testamento de Joan de las Ruelas, vecino de Zacatecas, marido de María de Arellano y padre de hernando, Beatriz y Leonor de las Ruelas y de Felipa de Vargas, quien testó en Querétaro el 9 de febrero de 1602.

Saludos

Hola a todos:

Encontré en ésta relación a la queretana Doña Jusepa Corona y a su pariente Juan de Ocampo.
La cabeza de éste linaje fue el benefactor queretano Don Juan Caballero Osio y Ocampo, sucesor de la familia González Corona de quienes heredó grandes extensiones en la Sierra de Pinos, por tanto doña Jusepa y don Juan de Ocampo pueden ser tíos del benefactor.

Ésta familia se encuentra relacionada con los Villaseñor y con Doña Rosalía Dosal de Madrid, Condesa de San Mateo de Valparaíso.

Hola Simona:

Habiendo leído algunas de las preguntas que has publicado ya sospechaba que la familia Alonso pertenecía a las familias colaterales de la familia Ramírez de Coy y al parecer así es, tomando en cuenta a la familia González-Alemán. Aunque es difícil trazar un seguimiento genealógico porque eran familias que tenían mucha movilidad ya que actuaban en forma de red mercantil te puedo dar algunos elementos históricos para que sitúes a tus antepasados:

La cabeza de la red eran los Duques de Béjar y Marqueses de Gibraleón que exportaban vino y frutos secos a Nueva España, el representante principal parece haber sido mi 11° abuelo Francisco Ramírez Bravo quien organizaba las operaciones en todos los virreinatos. Uno de sus yernos fue Gaspar González de Mora que era concretamente el encargado de distribuir las pipas de vino en las minas de Zacatecas y poblaciones aledañas. Gaspar era polígamo y tuvo problemas con la Inquisición por esta causa. Su primera esposa fue Francisca de

Que interesante todo lo que sabes de las familias. Te agradesco mucho la history sobre mis antepasados. Tengo mas direcion en que y donde buscar. Hace un mes que el primer primo llamado de Aleman se vuelve a casar en Durango y fue sorpresa que tambien otro pariente.

Marcelina que quiere decir "red mercantil"

gracias por la informacion!!

Comment

Hola Simona:

Es una "network marketing" distribuye ciertos productos, esta red distribuía vino, frutos secos y aceite de oliva que venían de España y telas de Génova, enviaba a España chocolate, acá tenía venta de caballos y mulas e invertía en minas de plata.

Algunas familias tenían grandes propiedades y mucho ganado, esta familia era diferente, tenían propiedades no tan grandes pero con mejores beneficios.

Hello David,

The word is "Oguio". Other spellings for this word are: ogio, hoguio, ahoguio or oguillo.

It is a synonym of "ahogo" = Difficulty in breathing.

This is the pre marriage document for Joseph Domingo Diaz to wed Maria Francisca Josefa Gonzalez dated August 1st 1767

Joseph Domingo Diaz was spanish, originally from the jurisdiction of Aguascalientes and currently living in Teocaltiche, legitimate son of Santiago Diaz and Juana de Villalobos. Juana was dead in 1767. Joseph Domingo Diaz was 40 years old in 1767 and was not previously married.

Maria Francisca Josefa Gonzalez was spanish, originally from and living in Aguascalientes, natural daughter of Maria Antonia Gonzalez. Maria Francisca Josefa was 14 years old in 1767 (not a typo!)

Comment

The reason you are not finding much on the parents is probably because not all of the Teocaltiche records are indexed. I say Teocaltiche because it looks like Santiago and Juana had a daughter born there in 1713.

https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/294041?availability=Family%…

Only ones with a magnifying glass are text searchable. Also the marriage records from the expected marriage period look like they are missing in Teocaltiche. You may find other baptised children in the unindexed records.

Comment

The record also mentions "Estancia de Villalobos ". So try to research the Villalobos family that owned this Estancia. Another clue may be found in a document after this one that has Diego Villalobos as a witness.

Hola Daniel

Years ago I did some research about the Barragan lastname and here are some of the notes I have :

Por 1539 llega a Nva España Juan Barragán originario de LLerena y se establece primero en Puebla, aunque también se el encontró en Michoacán y en la Nueva Galicia en años posteriores; tuvo los siguientes hijos :
Pedro Martín, Diego Martín y Juan Martín, el cual se avecindó en Zamora, Michoacán y casó por 1585 con Ana de Robledo de Ávalos.

Un hijo de este primer Juan Martín Barragán tambien se llamó así Juan Martín , al cual le llamaré II, este casó con Úrsula de la Huerta en Zamora, Mich. el 6-feb-1621

Otro hijo de Juan Martín I ,llamado Pedro Martín Barragán casó en Zamora, Mich por 1610 con Beatríz Arias de Bedoya ainque su boda aparece en el libro parroquial con fecha del 6-sep-1622 pero al parecer desde ca 1610 vivían juntos, ya que en el censo de 1622 ya aparecen con un hijo llamado Baltazar de 10 años de edad.

A continuación hago un copy paste de mis notas originales, ojalá sirven como un estímulo para ahondar un poco más sobre ese linaje:

…muy pronto encontré que ya en la edad media española destacaban unos caballeros de ese apellido, es el caso del noveno maestre de la órden Santiago que fue Martín Peláez Barragán en 1218 puesto por Alfonso IX para oponerse al castellanista García González, partidario de Fernando III, recién proclamado rey de Castilla contra la voluntad del leonés. Éste sin embargo, acabaría provocando su dimisión en 1221…(Martín era portero de la cámara de Fernando III) (1)

La información de la edad media y el renacimiento español seguramente contiene más noticias sobre este linaje, pero ese periódo debe ser materia de un trabajo profundo de un especialista, no de un aficionado como es el caso presente.

Habiendo dicho lo anterior, debo decir sin embargo, que no tengo dudas de que de dicho Martín Peláez Barragán descienden los Barraganes Uruapenses por diversos

Alrededor de 1690 aparece Jose Martin Barragan que a la postre sus descendientes cambiaron su apellido por Martinez de Barragan en la region de Jerez,Zacatecas, y en un documento que encontre en el arzobispado de Guadalajara aprece que es de Zamora, Michoacan, pero no pude determinar quin era su padre ya que hay varios Jose de la misma epoca.

Just curious if your Diaz line extends to Durango. My mothers family is from Presidios/Tepehuanes and I often wonder if I might someday trace back to Zacatecas, where my fathers family is from.

You can check to see if any of the Diaz in your line migrated from Teocaltiche, Jalisco Mexico to Durango.

Comment

When I was researching my Diaz de Leon ancestry from Los Altos de Jalisco I discovered that one of the lines had left Zacatecas and traveled to Durango The line was originally from Aguascalientes. This line that went to Durango branched off and left some descendants there as others moved back to Zacatecas. One of the things that I remember about this line was that I had trouble putting it together until I found a document that explained that five children had been born before the parents legally married. It turned out that I didn’t descend from this line.

There are two couples by this name in Theocaltiche in the 1700's. One of them was baptizing their children in the very early 1700's and the other in the mid 1750's. You would have to provide more information in order to know which couple is the one you are researching.

Here is another thread.

Diego and Santiago are cognates. In the 1600's and 1700's, some families used the names interchangeably for the same person. In other families, the two names were never used interchangeably. This next record should be studied to see if it can provide more information into your research of the earlier Santiago Diaz and Juana de Villalobos.

Hi Enrique,

I am also related to this couple via my Valencia and Oceguera ancestors and as part of the indexing work that I'm doing in the Archivo del Antiguo Obispado de Michoacan... I turned up a dispensa that provides LOTS of details about Pedro de Torres Guerrero y Sarmiento Palomino, although there's not much information on his wife Lorenza.

Here's the link to the dispensa for a son of Pedro, Alejandro de Torres Guerrero y Gaytan (Originario de Tamazula), and his marriage to Rosa Maria de Cervantes (Originaria de Cotija):

  • Dispensa de segundo con cuarto grado de consanguinidad entre Alejandro de Torres Guerrero y Sarmiento y Rosa Maria de Cervantes y Vargas, Tinguindin, Dos de Enero, 1740


    • In the dispensa we learn that the novios are related on the Torres side. Piecing together the tree, with the help of other dispensas, the tree looks like this:

    Parece que podemos ser parientes por varias líneas. Un hijo de éstos José de Torres Sarmiento casó Ana Ochoa Garibay y Brambila Villaseñor en febrero de 1742 en la parroquia de San Francisco, Tamazula. Como pista hay muchos "Torres y Sarmiento" en Puebla de Zaragoza durante el siglo XVII, parece ser la cuna novohispana de esta familia. No me sorprendería si tu Pedro viajaría desde Puebla para la Provincia de Avalos. Aun en el siglo XIX podemos ver varias personas usando el apellido Torres Sarmiento en Jalisco. También me interesa tu línea Borja, pues desciendo de los Martínez de Borja en Morelia, Michoacán, cuál será el vínculo?

    Hi Sergio

    More testamentos!

    A few years ago i tried to see testamentos of Aguascalientes through the Acervo Digital del Archivo Historico and I alway got an error message when i tried to view the docs. But yesterday i tried the link again and the "ver documento" button works. I still have a problem using the search form, so I have to use the "back door", just browse through the list which I can access through the link.

    This is probably not news for anyone else, but for me it's a big break. It's a window on life in the 1600's and 1700's - dotas, selling of slaves (and freeing of slaves), selling and buying land and houses, besides testamentos.

    This is the link:
    http://eservicios.aguascalientes.gob.mx/seggob/acervodigital/notarial.a…

    It will great if the guadalajara testamentos can be indexed too - i am still in for giving a hand with that.

    Comment

    Hi Kathy,

    What years are you working on in Monte Escobedo baptisms? I can't find the baptism of my 9th generation ancestor Blas Madera who should be baptized aroune late 1600's or early 1700's. I am curious about him because in his marriage record he was listed as a "mestizo" when his parents are listed as "espanoles - born in Mexico." But when he passed away in 1776, he was listed as a "mulatto libre."

    That is odd. Which means one of his parents could not have been "espanol."

    I wanted to find his baptism record to confirm. It should be at Mesquitic or Monte Escobedo.

    Comment

    i'm not sure if you'll find his baptism since not all baptisms in monte escobedo or mesquitic from early 1700's are available, plus monte escobedo has no records pre-1705 available online.

    I would give it a shot, as I am looking for the testament of Juan Sotelo anyways.
    Basically, the info would be:

    name of difunto and where they are from
    date of testamento
    film number
    image number

    anything else?

    For example:

    Blas Cordero, Zacatecas
    13 nov 1656
    film 007983535
    image 62/583

    the above came from this page:

    My Spanish is limited, but i recognize words like difunto and vecino and place names.
    If someone set up the blog page, I would attempt to make contributions as i go through the records.

    i'd rather focus on indexing marriage dispensations, but i looked through first few films briefly, and it seems like most of them are from guadalajara in particular(so they probably won't have anything relevant for my tree since i have no known ancestors who lived in guadalajara for most of their life), some are long, and it's kinda hard to tell when each one starts and ends.

    Hola Simona:

    Aunque no tengo a la familia Minjares en mi genealogía ya me había dado cuenta que fue una familia que estuvo presente en Querétaro entre 1590 y 1620 y después ya no apareció por lo que creo que se fueron a otro lugar y ese lugar pudo haber sido Durango, ya que en 1640 comienzan los registros en aquél lugar, en sitios mineros.

    Creo que el apellido Minjares puede ser andalusí y que puede provenir de "El Minjar" una localidad cercana a Granada.

    Es posible que no existan registros tempranos en la zona de Durango. Sería cuestión de investigar a la familia Solórzano.

    Saludos

    Hola Simona:

    Me asomé a Familysearch y al parecer María de la Cida y Roxas estuvo casa también con Joseph Cano:

    "México matrimonios, 1570-1950," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:JHBC-W5B : 15 July 2015), Joseph Cano De Los Rios and Maria De La Sida, 14 Sep 1692; citing El Sagrario Metropolitano,Victoria De Durango,Durango,Mexico, reference ; FHL microfilm 654,837.

    Y tuvo cuando menos dos hijas: María en 1701 y Gertrudis en 1696.
    No la encontré con el apellido Cida, Zida ni Sida ni Cid. En cuanto al apellido Roxas podría ser Ramírez, ya que hubo muchos Ramírez que le ponían a sus hijos el apellido Roxas.

    Lo curioso es que ademas mencionan un tal Joseph de la Sida y Leguisamo creo que dice que el estuvo por la falta de su padre el Capitan Luis Peres de la Sida y Madre ya defuntos Pero no estoy segura de lo de mas que dice.

    Tambien mencionan los testigos Pedro Quintero de Moia, Alonso de Rojas, Diego Paes

    El tal Diego Paes puede ser

    Hola Simona:

    Creo que las personas utilizaban variantes de su apellido familiar cuando se casaban y a veces creaban un nuevo apellido compuesto.

    Entonces el apellido puede ser Pérez de la Sida.

    En cuanto al otro registro se refiere a un negro esclavo llamado Juan y traído del Congo.
    Pero no se si tenga relación con tu familia.

    What a surprise to hear Edward's name mentioned on this website. His research is not connected to the areas of research that Nuestrosranchos members are usually interested in. I had done some research a few months back that caused me to cross paths with some of his research. The last time that I called to talk to him his daughter told me that he was resting. He is not in good health and I have him in my prayers. Please pray for him.

    One section of my book will have a chapter on the intersection of some of our research.

    This couple
    Jose Lorenzo Coronado (9SZ9-L1K)and Maria Margarita Segovia b: about 1760 whose children starting in 1789 were born in Gaudalupe del Carnicero, Charcas, San Luis Potosi, Mexico. Their children are either mestizo or castizo. There are only 3 found could be more. The other couple Lorenso Coronado and Margarita Maria whose children (I only found Balvina 1765) might be a dif couple altogether.

    could you include the dates of birth for the other two you found severiana and Pedro.
    The coronados had their own Rancho named San Antonio de los Coronados whose records were mostly located in Charcas but there are some in Venado. The family married throughout San Luis and some even ventured out to jalisco, aguascalientes, and Pinos among other places.

    Thank you Daniel, Rosalinda, and Claudia,

    . It is a very valuable resource that many of us have used to break through brick walls. Here are two examples:

    Almost from the beginning of my building my family tree I came up against statements from a couple of prominent genealogists that my paternal ancestral line was inaccurate. All the pieces of the puzzle, when brought together, led to the conclusion that my constructed tree was correct. Mariano Gonzalez Leal and Jaime Holcombe did not have these ancestors in their work. Jaime Holcombe specifically states that this one ancestor died at a very young age before having family. Jaime Holcombe was incorrect in this statement. All of the records that I collected and brought together made sense only with the tree that I constructed from the many many pieces. But this tree was constructed from dozens of primary documents, and if a single one of those documents was in error, then the whole tree fell apart. It was only through the

    Pregunto porque Rodrigo de Velasco, Tesorero de la Nueva Galicia, natural de Medina de Pomar, hijo de Juan de Velasco del Barrio y de Mencía de Rada casó con su deuda Ana de Velasco y de Mendoza, hermana del I Conde de la Revilla.

    Estoy leyendo en "Andariegos y Pobladores..." que María de Cárdenas sobrevivió a este Rodrigo de Velasco, ella se casó en segundas nupcias con el Contador Francisco Rodríguez, vecino de Zamora. Con esto podemos descartar que Cárdenas pudiera ser primer matrimonio del Tesorero de la Nueva Galicia.

    Salvo que algún documento pruebe que Rodrigo, esposo de Cárdenas, sea el mismo Tesorero y Caballero de Santiago, Rodrigo de Velasco esposo de la hermana del Conde de Revilla, nuestro Rodrigo de Velasco podría ser pariente del sevillano Diego de Velasco, Teniente de Alcalde Mayor y vecino de Colima. Hijo de Llorente del Río y de Isabel de Velasco.

    Hola Marcelina:

    Mil gracias por la información y los datos; creo que Rodrigo de Velasco esposo de María de Cárdenas y Rodrigo de Velasco hijo de Juan de Velasco de Barrios son personas diferentes. Me baso en lo siguiente: 1) Rodrigo de Velasco, esposo de María de Cárdenas falleció en las Indias mientras que el Tesorero Rodrigo de Velasco falleció en España siendo sepultado con sus padres y esposa en la Iglesia de Barrio de Díaz Ruiz en Burgos. 2) María de Cárdenas casó en segundas nupcias con el Contador Rodríguez por lo que descartamos que Cárdenas pudiera ser primera esposa del hijo de Juan de Velasco de Barrios. Creo que es un caso de homonimia.

    Me interesa mucho esta rama por tener a Rodrigo de Velasco y María de Cárdenas como antepasados. Este Rodrigo de Velasco sin embargo aún podría ser pariente del Virrey, habrá que seguir tirando del hilo hasta saber cómo.

Hace poco estuve investigando otro apellido: Santa Anna que procede de Medina del Pomar, estuve viendo varios videos históricos sobre esa población y así me di cuenta de que había muchos Velasco en esa zona. Pero realmente esa familia no la conozco con detalle. De todas maneras propuse mi hipótesis para reavivar un poco el interés general en temas de un interés más extenso.

    Es completamente posible que hubiero dos o más Rodrigos de Velasco y poco podrá saberse hasta que se pueda ver el testamento de Antonio de Velasco. Incluso la Real Cédula puede no tener suficiente precisión como sería un testamento o alguna escritura más precisa.

    Hola Marcelina:

    Muchas gracias, me ha parecido genial tu idea de reavivar el tema. Hay varias ramas de los Velasco que aún quedan en el aire: Alonso de Velasco y Zúñiga esposo de Ana de Flores de la Torre y otros. No sería raro que fueran parientes del Virrey, quizás me repito pero sabemos que era común que parientes de Obispos, Virreyes, Oidores y otros personajes pasaran a las Indias como sus criados, otros, ya en Indias, aunque teniendo un parentesco más o menos lejano, reclamaban la relación usando el apellido que quizás era de un abuelo (Creo que este es el caso de las Hernández de Arellano-Hurtado de Mendoza a quienes les convenía más usar Mendoza pues estando el Virrey Don Antonio de Mendoza, era el linaje de "moda"). Volviendo al tema, sí, encontrar el testamento de Antonio de Velasco sería estupendo y podría brindar nuevas luces sobre la conexión que propones con los de Tamazula.

    El personaje clave de la emigración burgalesa en el Siglo XVI pudo haber sido Don Sancho Ortiz de Matienzo, originario de Medina del Pomar y Tesorero de la Casa de Contratación de Sevilla. Tenía una casa que aun se conserva en Medina del Pomar al igual que el Alcázar de los Velasco.

    Hicieron un libro sobre su vida en el que al parecer se narran las relaciones que había entre varias familias de Las Merindades. En Querétaro hubo importante inmigración burgalesa que trajo la industria de la lana, que llegó a ser las más importante de la nueva España mediante la cría de ovejas y la elaboración de ropa basta en obrajes que se distribuía en todo el virreinato y se mantuvo hasta principios del siglo XIX.

    Gracias Marcelina por la informacíon de la descendencia de Capitan General Juan Velasco de Barrios.

    The name Juan Velasco de Barrios reminds me of treasure hunters.

    Many of the merchant ships in the Flota de Nueva Espafia of Captain-General Juan Velasco de Barrios carried Silver and Gold. Captain-General Juan Velasco de Barrios was headed back to Spain with Silver and Gold when he found out that the English were planning on attacking his ships to take his Precious metals.

    Capitan- General Juan Velasco de Barrios decided to evade the English by taking another route to Spain, but this new route took too long and he then had to travel during hurricane season in dangerous waters. He tried to outrun the storms unsuccessfully as he lost many ships, and their precious cargo. Over many years, treasure hunters have been looking for these lost ships.

    Many thanks for your kind reply Manny. I agree with you. But I am not sure because the editor wrote the word "benefi[cia]do in the record just below Juana's record and "do" looks very different.

    Sometimes the word "Licenciado" was abbreviated "Lzdo", but editor's "z" also looks quite different. That is what I am thinking maybe the word could be another one.

    Is it digo? The word that is commonly used to refer to a person previously recited in the record, as in "said Lazaro Hernandez" in English.

    Hi Ruben,

    After taking another look, you’re right. It names Lazaro Hernandez twice, and it gives no title on the first entry. I’m going to say, “hijos del dho Lazº Hz.”

    “Dicho” would be appropriate and typical, and looks like Alex also thinks the same,

    Many thanks Alejandro for taking part in this topic.

    Taking a closer look to the 3rd. record on the left hand side page (Pedro) the same editor wrote:

    en dicho dia mes y año susodicho yo el dicho cura beneficiado ...

    ("cho" looks very similar to the last part of the unknown word)

    ... yjo de miguel y dey savel ... = ... yjo de miguel y de ysabel ...

    (The words are not properly separated)

    I think the "L" at the starting of the unknown word is part of the previous word "de" ("de L" = "del"). So the editor tried to write "... hijos del [di]cho Laz[ar]o ..." but he failed to write the "di" part.

    Rubén

    Comment

    Ruben,

    You are right, that makes more sense. "Del dicho Lazaro" reads better.
