A "WILD GUESS" only... >From personal experience my opinion is: Jose Maria Miramontes was a probable padrino erroneously mentioned before the baptized legitimate parents... thus ( ). Jose Maria Miramontes could of been the father, died, and the viuda remarried prior to childs birth. Jose Maria Miramontes may have been related to Maria Guadalupe De Luna. I make this statement based on a theory,,, relations of the Miramontes and De Luna from Tlaltenango, Zacatecas in the first half of the 17th century: What time frame is your bautismo record? --- Arturo Ramos <arturo.ramos2@...> wrote: > Has anyone run across this or have an inkling of > what it might mean? > > ...que nacio en Santa Cruz, el dia veintiseis del > corriente a las once > de la manana a la que puse por nombre Luisa, hija > legitima de (Jose > Maria Miramontes) Telesforo Gutierrez y Maria > Guadalupe de Luna. > Abuelos paternos Catarino y Anastacia Jara... > > Who is this man Jose Maria Miramontes and what is > his relation to this > baptism? > > > > __________________________________ Yahoo!

Could it also be that, at the baptism, conflicting information was given by the parties present, and the sacristan or priest noted all names, but put in parentheses that info that did not sound likely to be the case? Emilie Garcia Port Orchard, WA --- ----- Original Message -----

Arturo and Elvira, At my local FHC they are doing transcriptions for their 10-yr digitizing project (they were sent CD's of original records on microfilm--wish I had them), and since I am the only Hispanic in these parts, I get called on to read certain records and interpret them. The most recent incident concerned one record that had precisely what you describe and I was at a loss to explain. We looked at the original transcription as it appears on the current IGI, and they had left out the info that was in parentheses, so I just told them to leave it out also. Maybe Jonathan can shed light on this, or maybe Joseph can contact someone in Mexico and ask about it. I told the people at FHC that Mexican records should be transcribed and edited by volunteers who were born and raised in Mexico and have some knowledge of genealogical records there. I guess they can't get enough volunteers in Mexico to do this? They wanted me to help, but I demurred, unless it is an area in Mexico that I am researching. They are currently doing Puebla. Besides, I don't think I know enough Spanish, but all it involves is figuring out the handwriting IF you can read Spanish. I did catch one transcriber putting in as names things that were not part of the names. They were only given a basic format to try to follow and they know no Spanish at all.
