color=#0000ff size=2>Santo Toribio has many of the features that are
commonly seen in Romos even of today.  My aunt married a Romo, and many of
my cousins have a striking ressemblance (mostly the beautiful eyes-whether they
be brown/green/blue) to Santo Toribio.  Since they haven't done any
research, I've been trying to figure out any connections for them.  In
doing this, I was able to tie in my dad's side of the family to Santo
Toribio's mother who is NOT a Romo.  This is how I came to "meet" John
G.  I still have more work to do on my Romos & my cousin's.  I
also thought that my Santa Ana Romos would tie into Rincon de Romos.  My
cousins claim that their father often told them they weren't related to the
Romos of Santa Ana--that they were from San Luis Potosi.  I just think that
their features are a bit too much to ignore.  Gotta go and dig some
more....

color=#0000ff size=2>Emilie, am I understanding that you have Romo too, and that
you tied into the Romos in Rincon de Romos?  Just wondering...  I know
there are still many there but haven't been able to tie mine in
...
