Hi Joseph,

I don't think Martin del Campo is a common surname except in Los 
Altos de Jalisco.  Three of my grandparents were from Los Altos and 
all three have Martin del Campo in their ancestry.  I am guessing 
they are all related, but right now I only have a couple of them 
connected.  I've read that all the Martin del Campo's from Los Altos 
descend from Lazaro Martin del Campo (the one you uploaded a family 
group sheet for).

So someone educate me. . .is the surname Martin del Campo a very
common last name? Maria with all those Martin del Campo's in several
differnt lines of various ones in the group it seems there should be a
cross somewhere. Or is Martin del Campo kind of like Smith?

ps: I bet ya a DNA test would show our Puentes were related but other
than that it might take a few more generations back. I'm going to
resume my backward search at the end of the Summer. Until then I'm
trying to gather as much Oral History as I can. When I resume my
search I'll be ordering films from Sombrerete, Zacatecas where I think
 my Justo Puente was married and from Tlaltenango where I think my
Diaz line came from.
