Hi,

If website money is achieved, will any content be lost when/if website is updated? Old forum topics, GEDCOM files, links, etc..?

Thanks
R Rojas

My money is in the mail

How do we donate?

Solo como nota, les comento que en los últimos meses he estado corrigiendo mas de 500 personas ancestros míos (y de muchos otros claro está) que han sido cambiados por el usuario "mbarrena", desconozco su intención pero esta claro que ésta persona lo hace sabiendo que la información que añade is incorrecta cuando no ridícula.

Ése registro en el enlace es una muestra perfecta de éste problema, éste usuario usa otros nombres también para tratar de despistar su identidad.

Cada ves que veas ese nombre, ó "Nueva Galicia now Jalisco" ó similar en el lugar de nacimiento, sabrás que la información ha sido corrompida, a veces al grado que se necesita comenzar de cero, por lo que la debes de dudar casi completamente.

Saludos y Suerte!

Tengo estas familias bien documentadas:

Luis de Medina Valdivia y María Fernández de Vaulús no tuvieron ningún hijo llamado Nicolás de Medina; esta persona no existe.
Leonor Becerra, hija de Juan de Luévana y María López de Lisardi, estaba casada con Juan Fernández de Vaulús, que era hermano de María Fernández de Vaulús.
No se sabe si Luis de Medina Valdivia era hijo de Antonio de Medina Rincón y María de Valdivia Romero. Su ascendencia aún se desconoce.
La ascendencia de Cristóbal de Medina Valdivia también se desconoce, y no se ha encontrado documentación que establezca una relación entre él y Luis de Medina.

La información proporcionada en esa genealogía es incorrecta y debe cambiarse.

Un cordial saludo,
Manny Díez Hermosillo

I check NR weekly (minimum 2 x week, not always logged in) to see if there is anything relevant for my geneaolgy research lines. Like many others, I would never haves learned about PARES or Guadalajara dispensas without NR. Also, many in the forum have contributed key info in posts on the Romo de Vivar line and other lines, info which I could not have found myself, for which I am grateful. I also just enjoy reading stories of families, of specific women and men (thanks Rick!) - these stories are windows to distant times and places which otherwise would be hard to imagine without the life stories of individuals.

Best Regards
Denise

Jaime Holcombe también escribió que Sebastián Reynoso es hijo del capitán Francisco de Reynoso y Padilla-Dávila y de Josefa de Rentería y Valdés. Jaime Holcombe apunto notas en las hojas de genealogía que entregó a la iglesia de “Latter Day Saints”.

Hola León,

Me interesó bastante tu publicación. Podrías darme un poco más de información. Para saber quién es el tal Antonio de Rojas y Sandoval. Si no me equivoco, el linaje Rojas de donde desciende María Rojas (López-Portillo) es el siguiente (me permito usar los apellidos sencillos y excluir la rama femenina a partir de cierto punto):

1. María Rojas (de López-Portillo)
2. Vicente Rojas Jiménez cc María Flores Alatorre
3. Ignacio Rojas Anda cc María Jiménez
4. Pedro José Rojas y Sánchez Banales cc Antonio de Anda Altamirano
5. José Rojas y Beltrán Dorantes
6. Pedro Rojas y Gallaga Mandarte
7. Juan José de Rojas y Sandoval

Según tus investigaciones dónde iría el tal Antonio de Rojas y Sandoval. O bien dónde diferimos en el árbol.
Saludos, Daniel.

I have Florencio Magallanes and Martina Luera as the parents of Camilo Magallanes.

I have Higinio Franco and Telesfora Gómez as the parents of Francisca Franco.

This information comes from the baptismal record of Maria Placida Magallanes Franco.

Good Luck in your research,

Hello Joseph,

With regards to the new update, I found this:

"Drupal 9 is built in Drupal 8, using deprecations and optional updated dependencies. ... Drupal 9.0 involves the removal of some deprecated code, but introduces no new features; it's a continuation of the fully-tested, stable codebase that is Drupal 8."

https://www.lullabot.com/articles/should-you-upgrade-drupal7-drupal9

There is more insightful information on that website. If you're currently on Drupal 7, or even 8, I'd say go with the update. If the ISP can work with it, then it'll be a good choice to upgrade.

Can I pay with Venmo?

Thank you,
Esther

Do you have an email associated with a PayPal account? I can send you the $10 via PayPal. It's faster.

Put me down for $10.
Thank you for continuing this website.

Joseph,

I will happily contribute. Just a question of clarification. Do you want 30 people as evidence of the breadth of commitment to Nuestros Ranchos or do you just want to make sure the $300 gets covered?

To our Members, I encourage us that if some of us have the means to contribute more than $10 we can and should do so, and if those of you that can contribute $10, should do so.

Thanks, Joseph, for all you have done and are doing. We stand with you.

Hello. My 4th Great-Granduncle is Juan Francisco Xavier de Villalobos Guzmán, born 20 July 1760 in San Juan de los Lagos, Jalisco, México, to Sebastián Fabián de Villalobos Núñez and Thadea Gusmán (Guzmán), my 5th Great-Grandparents.

I'll see what I can gather on the Villalobos/Mendoza families.

In the meantime, I hope all is well. Stay safe.

Buenas tardes RJ,

Este nombre y apellido me suena. Hace años revisando entre los archivos de la Sagrada Mitra de Guadalajara vi la dispensa de don Juan Guerrero y Moctezuma (también Juan de Moctezuma Guerrero) y doña María de Cárdenas. No conservé una copia, pues realmente no me interesó, pero sí, un dato curioso. No recuerdo los padres, pero éste fue originario del Obispado de México, creo en Toluca o algún lugar en Hidalgo. Lo interesante del documento lo nombra como Cacique de tal pueblo.

Saludos,

Daniel Méndez de Torres y Camino

Dear Cynthia,

Though I don’t have more information on Julio Mercado’s parents, I do have a couple of puzzle pieces to add that may lead to more information. It seems that Julio is a couple of decades older than his wife Francisca Alvarado, so he may have had a previous marriage. Another lead is that his wife “Francisca Alvarado” is shown as “Francisca Pacheco” in two records.

Good luck,

Rick A. Ricci

I tried searching for this series but I can’t find it.

Thank you Jesus Ibarra for asking about the parents of Diego Zuñiga. Like you, I had also seen the erroneous posts naming Alonso de Zúñiga and Isabel de Villasirga as his parents. Thanks to your post asking for evidence, we now have clarification from Richard Ibarra as to his real parents, Diego Zuñiga and Mariana Diaz.

Thanks again to Richard Ibarra for providing the conclusive evidence,
Rick A. Ricci

Saludos Jesús,

No desciendo de Diego de Zúñiga, aunque si de sus suegros, pero le comparto el enlace a su testamento:

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-C9BF-7QQ5-W?i=7&cat=35…

No he podido leerlo muy bien, pero parece que era natural de Guadalajara, Jalisco y sus padres fueron Diego de Zúñiga y Mariana Díaz. No tengo otros datos sobre sus padres más de que fueron naturales de España. Espero que el testamento le sea útil.

Estimado Erik,

Thank you Erik for sharing your work. I enjoy reading about the information that you will present in your book. I descend from the Flores and Osorio families repeatedly. I also have descent from the Osorio family through the Cornejo family from “los Altos de Jalisco” that descends from the maternal aunt of Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz. In my research of these Cornejo ancestors, I read that there are some papers in the United States Capitol library that holds much information on their descent from Pedro Alvarez Osorio. There may be information in those records that shows the relationship between the Flores family and Pedro Alvarez de Osorio. Once I get ahold of these papers, I will share the information with you.

Some people have credited me for some of your work, but that is not my doing.They have given me credit finding the correct Juan Pantoja that is the father of Bernardina Mendoza. Whenever this has happened, I let them know that you are the one that provided me

.
can you share where you found that marriage dispensation record? I've gone through the marriages in the sagrada mitra for that time period and can't find it..

Hi Mr. Madera

Thanks for the info and link!

For those with connections to San Antonio, I would to add that you have provided other good info here:

Juan Rodriguez who married Leonarda de los Rios and then married Magdalena Yanez.

Here's a marriage record for agustin castillo and antonia robles(a grandaughter of juan and clara).https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:939N-YY4X-H?i=496&cc=1804458

apparently juan had siblings named francisco and isabel

Thank you. I was very excited to find this post today. I believe Juan de la Torre and Maria Clara Chavez y Banuelos may be my 7th great grandparents. I have been researching them as possible parents of Agustin de la Torre (married to Catharina Gonzales). This gives me more to look at.

Hi, Maria Gertrudis Quesada born about 1709 is my 5th great grandmother.

I just wanted to pop in here and say that I descend from Felipe and Maria, along with Maria Gertrudis, their daughter, and Felipe and Maria's son Manuel.

I've searched for Felipe's parents for many years, with no success. It's very likely that he came from somewhere else (maybe another part of Zacatecas or Aguascalientes, where there are other Quezadas), but without a marriage record for Felipe and Maria, we may be out of luck. There is always a chance that there is a record out there with more information, perhaps unindexed.

Katy and Erlinda are my cousins; my DNA is on Ancestry and FTDNA, but I use initials-- JJ for FTDNA and R Ruiz for Ancestry. If you'd like, we can exchange info to see how close our cousinship is. I always like to add a new cousin to the tree!

Question?

Did Maria de la torre have a ranch in colotlan with the same name rancho maria de la torre?

I have some madera an ancestors that were there at that ranch during early 1700's

Anselmo,

It turns out that we do have some common ancestors.

I am related to you through Fermin A. Apecechea’s first wife, Maria Gertrudis Justa Flores y Garcia, who is the mother of Manuel Apecechea.

I descend from a third cousin of Maria Gertrudis Justa Flores y Garcia. There are also other common ancestral lines.

1)- Licenciado- Doctor Ginés de Mercado m. Ines de Vasquez

2)- Conquistador - capitán don Ginés Vázquez de Mercado an Ana Vasquez de Tapia (daughter of Bernardino Vázquez de Tapia)

3)- Ana Vázquez del Mercado y Tapia and Mateo del Rio de la Losa

4)- María del Rio y Losa and Andrés García de la Cadena

5)- *******Felipe Garcia de la Cadena

*******Felipe de Jesus (#6) is listed as a descendant of María del Rio y Losa and Andrés García de la Cadena and the Felipe Garcia de Cadena that is married to Bernardina Tello de Orozco is listed as a son of Andres Garcia de la Cadena, so it is highly likely that the two Felipe’s are the same person and he has two

Dear Anselmo,

I am curious as to your descent from the Apecechea family. Do you descend from Julio Apecechea and Maximiana Tamayo? They had few children as they both passed away at a relatively young age. Julio Apecechea was only forty years old when he passed away and his record identifies him as a widower.

Fermin Antonio Apecechea returned to Spain in 1822. He passed away on 17/June/1834 in Cadiz, Andalucia, Spain. There is a street named after him, “Calle Fermin Antonio Apecechea” in Goizueta.

Fermin Antonio Apecechea returned to his beloved Spain. He was famous for many reasons, his work in mines, his government posts, the honors bestowed on him and his philanthropy for the provision of music education to children.

Pascual Ygnacio Eugenio Apecechea and Fermin Antonio Apecechea have a sister named “María Feliciana Romana Apecechea Flores Correa”.

María Feliciana Romana Apecechea Flores Correa is an ancestor of:

María del Rosario Jiménez Ruiz,VI Marquesa de Santa Rosa De Lima. She was born in 1989 in Madrid. Maria del Rosario was named after her maternal grandmother who was married to a “ Magistrado del Tribunal Supremo Español.” María del Rosario’s parents were first cousins, both of them descendants of Maria Feliciana Romana Apecechea Flores Correa.

I believe that Santiago Apecechea was born in Nayarit, and not in Zacatecas. His parents lived in Nayarit at the time of his birth. It is possible that his father may have been born in Zacatecas, The “Apecechea” had arrived from Spain the century before from Spain. The Apecechea first arrived in Mexico City in the 1700’s. From Mexico City, the family branched out to Guanajuato and other areas, like Nayarit.
Santiago Apecechea married almost immediately after his first wife’s death, which I found surprising.

Rick A. Ricci

The first wife of Matias Apecechea, Apolonia (Polonia) González, passed away on 14/Dec/1832 in Nayarit.

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:9392-MK9M-7Q?i=181&cc=18833…

Rick A. Ricci

Matias Apecechea and Isidora Ruelas are the parents of Santiago Apecechea. Santiago was approximately 51 years old according to his death record in 6/Apr/1892.

Matias and Isidora were married on 8/March/1833. Matias was previously married to Polonia Gonzalez. Matias Apecechea is “hijo natural” de Francisca Murillo.

There was a VillaNueva in what is now “Los Altos de Jalisco.”

Ignacio Apecechea was originally from Goizueta, Navarrra España before he came to Nueva Galicia. It will be difficult, though not impossible, to connect Matias Apecechea to Ygnacio Apecechea because Matias was a “hijo natural.”. Ygnacio is most likely his grandfather or great grandfather.

Hello Anna,

I believe that I may have found Otilia Cedillo’s family. However, I need more information to verify that they are the same person. Was your Otilia Cedillo born in 1910? Do you have any other information that will help identify her?

Please add information on Otilia’s children so that I can compare the information with what I have found.

A key piece of information that will help identify which Otilia Cepeda is your great grandmother is to know the birthdate of your grandmother, Irene Jenny Aguilar Lopez.

Thanks, Rick A. Ricci
