Greetings all! Hola!

My name is Luis JAIME. After stopping my genealogy research for 11 years because of a dead end I have decided to pick it up again now that I've found this great nuestrosranchos.org web site. Something that didn't exsist back then... I don't think I can ever break through the dead end but I hope to share my research and data with other connections to my tree. There are still a few unanswered questions I have as well as some loose JAIME tree that I've yet to connect.

Saludos a Francisco Sevilla y Steve Apodaca

Solo para saludarlos y estar en contacto caballeros.

Mensaje para Alessandro Vitela

Este mensaje es para mi pariente perdido Alessandro Vitela. Espero que cheques los mensajes del foro de nuestros ranchos. Me has escrito porque no he contestado a tus mensajes, pero en realidad, te he estado enviando varios mensajes desde hace un par de semanas y no recibo respuesta. Me pregunto si recibiste el documento de matrimonio de nuestros ancestros Francisco Bonal e Ysabel Gutierres que te envie hace ya tiempo. No se si posiblemente tengas bloqueado mi email o algo. En fin, espero que leas este mensaje por medio de nuestrosranchos y podamos continuar la comunicacion.

Juan, Domingo, and Christobal HERNANDEZ GAMINO

To Whom It May Concern--

Without places and dates, it is hard to tell whom we are talking about. I looked at my old files and this is what I came up with:

Christobal HERNANDEZ GAMINO born about 1631 in Ayo el Chico, Jalisco, Mexico. Married 23 Feb 1653 in Leon, Guanjuato, Mexico to Maria RUIZ de VELASCO, daughter of Pedro RUIZ de VELASCO and Anna NUNEZ BOJORQUEZ.

How do you get evidence for Noble/royal lines?

I have connected my Ornelas line back to Alvaro de Ornelas who came from portugal to Mexico city in 1527. He was the son of El "Conde de Dornelas" his name was also Alvaro Dornelas. I have backed it up through Microfilm back to 1565 in Lagos de Moreno where the Alvaros son was born in 1567, and then the rest is just what the royals except the genealogy.

Pintura of Don Martin Casillas...

Wednesday, Dec 24, 2008

Dear Group--

Many years ago when I was an active part of SHHAR in Orange, California, I was given a poster which was about Don Martin Casillas--
Architect/ Alarife of the cathedrals Puebla de Los Angeles, Mexico City and Guadalajara. Listed as his some of his descendants were the following seven SHHAR members; Tony Campos and his wife Clarisa Vega, Ramon Godinez, George Herrera, Ophelia Marquez, Mary Lou Montagna, and Lillian Wold.

Quieren Ayuda a encontrar sus antepasados? Do you want help in finding your ancestors?

Si quieren tener mejores resultados, simplemente pongan más datos. No se limiten a nada mas poner los dos apellidos que buscan. Pongan información de familiares: hermanos, cónyuge(s), hijos, etc.... ¿Cual es el primer nombre? ¿Cuando nació, se caso, murió- en que fecha, y lugar y mas importante por que cree eso? Personas no siempre utilizan los dos apellidos, a veces utilizan el de la madre, ciertas familias utilizan el apellido de un pariente famoso, por muchas generaciones. Poniendo mas información le va a abrir las puertas y personas le van a poderle ayudar con mas eficacia.

Totatiche 1842 Census

This last weekend, I scanned the entire 1842 Census of Totatiche, Jalisco. For anyone who is interested in the document, it can be downloaded from the following URL. You should be warned that it is a very large file (approximately 100MB) and will therefore take a very long time to download 10-15 minutes even with DSL.

Record of my Grandma, Maria del Carmen Ornelas

I was hoping someone might be able to help me with this: I searched the pilot program and found my grandma, Maria del Carmen Ornelas, b 28 Nov 1900, Jesus, Guadalajara, Jalisco.  Her father, Doroteo Ornelas and mother, Rosa Cortez. The film #1106706 and batch # is C01861-3.  The record is only for view at this time.

For those who might be interested we have one copy of : Cronica de la Provincia de Santiago de Xalisco, Escrita por Fr. Nicolas Antonio de Ornelas Mendoza y Valdivia. Pulished in 1952 by Instituto Jalisciense de Antropologia E Historia. The price of the book is $46.00, which includes US shipping costs. The book is in good condition, but has light spot on face and the front edge of book has darkened. Inside page have some yellowing, but are clean.

Aguascalientes films posted at the LDS Family Search Pilot

To all:

I discovered today the the LDS church has posted images at the new Family Search Pilot site from the Aguascalientes, AGS, microfilms of baptisms, confirmations, deaths, marriages and matrimonial investigations. The period covered begins in the 1600s and extends to the early 1900s. The images are not by themselves searchable, but when used in conjunction with the IGI, it is very easy to find records of interest. The image quality is quite high; you can also download the images. The image quality is high enough that you can significantly enlarge the images for items of interest. This is a truly marvelous addition to their site!

La Familia Salas de Bonilla.

Hola amigos, hace días que estoy aventajando una rama de mi árbol genealógico por el lado de la familia Salas de Bonilla.

Pues resulta que mi ancestros José Santiago Salas de Bonilla casó en Tepatitlán, Jalisco, pero era de Aguascalientes, y me puse a investigar en Aguascalientes y de ahí me lleva hasta Lagos de Moreno, Jalisco con Simón de Salas y Bonilla y Nicolasa de Anda Altamirano, pero quedé hasta ahí porque ya no encuentro nada sobre ésta pareja.
