Praying "the Tuesdays"?

I just got off the phone with my aunt Emilia in New Mexico.  She
called to thank me for the present I sent her, and as usual I started to pump
her about the family history.  She is the last of her siblings (my Mother's
sister), the only relative of her generation I have left) and she is 92, but
sharp as a tack.  We were discussing the fact that her grandmother could
read and write, which was unusual for a Hispanic woman born in 1865.  My
aunt said my great-grandmother was very smart and talented, not only could read
and write, but could sew, cook, make wine, make preserves, and heal with
massages and herbs, among some of her talents.  She was also a very devout
Catholic, and my aunt told me she still had her grandmother's prayer book, that
her grandmother would pray the (ten?) Tuesdays, and my aunt said she also uses
the prayer book to pray "the Tuesdays" (to Saint Anthony?).

 

Has anyone in the group ever heard of this practice of "praying the
Tuesdays"?  I asked my husband about it, but he has never heard about
it.  We have both heard of Novenas, where you pray to a Saint for nine days
straight, but not necessarily on Tuesdays.

Wells Fargo has what they call an intercuenta account. You have an
account here where you deposit money and it is transfered to the
account in Mexico. I have used this method to send money to Mexico. The
exchange rate I got wasn't very good, but it was easy to do once it is
set up. Here is a link:

Rita Hayworth

Rita Hayworth was not only an excellent and beautiful
actress, she had talent.  Any Hispanic that made it in
Hollywood in the '40s had be super beautiful and
talented. 

Regarding red hair...
Red hair runs in my wife's family; her
great---grandfather was also from Andalusia (Seville).
 Also, I've seen a number of families from Los Altos,
Jalisco, with red hair.  Like I said, the women from
Los Altos are very beautiful.  My wife gets real upset
whenever a gringo asks her if she is Spanish; she
always tells them "I'm Mexican, not Spanish"!

I'm surprised I could not find the word "osico" in my dictionary.  But as I recall, it is not really bad in itself.  Correct me if I am wrong, but it means "snout" or the mouth of an animal.  What makes it "bad" is who says it, to whom, why and how.   When the mother said it, it just surprised the students because

Ramos and Cardenas Familes

I have an ancestor named Pablo Alverto Morillo from Las Tetillas, Jerez, Zacatecas. He married my ancestress Juliana del Carmen Villavicencio but I don't know when. They were the parents of Maria Antonia Morillo and of Joseph Sostenes Morillo. Maria Antonia married one of my Saldivar ancestors. I'd like more info on the Morillos, such as who are HIS parents and where are they from?!!! Marge, who gets frustrated at the adobe walls she finds....grrrrr.:(


Mexico Trip Report Part I

Peggy:

There are a number of Tuxpans... There is actually another Tuxpan in 
Jalisco, which is in the south of the state and there is also a 
Tuxpan (perhaps the best known one) in Nayarit.

There are a great number of RAMOS in the Totatiche area... most I 
think descendant from one of the Tlaxcaltec families that came in 
1591 to Colotlan.  Mine is not from these lineages but rather from a 
name change that occured around 1785.

You are correct, Mary.  The reason you didn't found the word is
because the correct spelling is hocico.

And it is not a bad word in itself.  But it is an impolite and even
offensive expression to say to others because it implies that you're
dealing with animals.  

It is as impolite as asking someone before entering your house to
"límpiate las patas", because as we know only animals have "patas" and
humans have "pies".

These kind of expressions are acceptable only jockingly with close
friends or sometimes they reflect a mother's frustration with a
difficult child.

Apologies: Ojos, Dientes, Lengua, Cabeza

I aplogize to the group.



I might better keep the words I've heard in my youth to myself if I
don't know the complete root and previous historical use of such words.
If I slip up and do this again please do remind me.

I can also attest to that.  Angie is one outstanding 
genealogist/analyst.  A while back she helped me connect with another 
Ranchos member.  I had looked at her report and missed the connection, 
but lucky for me Angie didn't.

Kudos Angie--I'm glad you're part of this group.

Question: Mexican army records from Zacatecas

Hello all,

Let me know if you can help. I recently learned that
my great-great grandfather served in the Mexican
cavalry in Zacatecas, perhaps around Tlaltenango,
although there might be some connection to Torreon,
Coahuila as well.

His name was Pedro Pineda, and he was probably born
between 1844 and 1864, as his son, my
great-grandfather Nicanor Pineda was born in 1884. Any
help would be appreciated...as of now, I don't really
know anything more about him, aside from the fact that
he had a wife named Pioquinta ____dosa. Also, does any
one know if there were any military engagements in
Zacatecas around this time that involved the cavalry?

Joseph,

 

You are so funny!  (Humorous, I mean).  However, I don't think
that cabezones, narizones, etc applies only to Tapatios.  My mother, who
was from New Mexico called me pendeja (stupid), cabezona (stubborn), etc. even
though I have very tiny features (many people think I am Asian, and I look like
my father who was tiny also).  My husband, on the other hand, is a typical
Tapatio (tall, skinny---6 feet and 165 pounds, Roman nosed, bald, white,
freckled, with a receded chin, and small ears that stick out).  So he is a
narizon, orejon, flaco, and his mother used to call him "demonio".  I asked
him if he had ever heard the term "hijo de V-chi" and he said no.  His
mother did call him tarugo, which he says means "knucklehead".  My father
used to tell me "callese el osico" even though he knew only animals have osicos,
we have bocas.

 

What are some examples of the peculiarities of speech in Jalisco?
