Dear Researches--

For those who can read English, a nice biography can be had of Thomas A. Edison at http://www.thomasedison.com/biography.html.

His connection to San Diego, where I live, is that he put in the electrical lighting at the famous Hotel Del Coronado, or so I have heard.

I suspect that Thomas Edison was such a wonderful scientist that we would all like to claim him as one of our own countrymen. For myself, I would like to say he was Canadian but that would not be true. However, there is another whom I can claim. Henry Woodward, a medical student of Toronto, Ontario, Canada and his friend Matthew Evans invented the light bulb and not Edison. You can read more about it at http://www.mysteriesofcanada.com/Ontario/first_electric_light_bulb.htm

Best wishes to all.

Sincerely,
Patricia Burton
AKA Patricia Diane Godinez
San Diego, Ca.

It seems to me that we have discussed Tom a good bit. He is resting
peacefully (I hope) so maybe we can let him rest for awhile, what do you
think? But if someone finds a good baptism record or tantalizing piece
of factual information showing evidence to old Tom's Mexican roots well
please bring it on. Why don't we give him a bit of a rest for now or
possibly take it to private email. As always I'm not telling folks what
to do just thinking that this might be best for all.

Hemos hablado de Tomas un poco ya. El esta descansando (Ojala que si)
que piensan de que lo dejamos descansar por un rato? Pero si alguien
tiene un acto de baptismo o un acto deliciosio de informacion factual
ensenyando preva de Tomas' conexcion a Mejico bueno mandalo al grupo
para que todos pueden verlo. Porque no horita dejamos a Tomas un
descanso o si quieren lleva la conversacion a correo electronicos
privados. No estoy diciendo que tienen que hacer esto nomas que pienso
que es bueno para todos

Joseph, I agree with you.
I want to mention to all the group(todos los primos) that was great all the
real information and stories that we interchange.
I am personally interested to found something else.
I didn´t found nothing in the book Retoños de España en Nueva Galicia, in
the Alba section.
We need to found facts and dates, If somebody get something, please let us
know.

Patricia, I couldn't open the website. Maybe it's due to the weather here? Anyway, I'll be home late on Tuesday and hope to see you soon after. I do have an appointment Wednesday at the Temple. I'll let you know how it goes.

See you soon. Esther
