Retonos de Espana En Nueva Galicia

Hola Ranchos-

Feliz navidad a todos and  prospero ano nuevo. My name is Ms. Clinton Nash and I live in Davis, California and I am grateful to be on this list.  I am begining research on my children's father's side,  Jose Luis GARNICA de Ajijic. His father, Jose Luis GARNICA was born in Arandas and had green eyes.  I will be posting the little I have soon.



Celebration of La Navidad:

 I once lived in Ajijic, a small puebla on the shores of Lago Chapala.  In the days before Christmas, panoramas appeared in doorways. I was overawed at the complexity and beauty of the elaborately constructed panoramas of miniature people, animalitos, trees, houses la gente walking toward the Baby Jesus in the manger. These displays, often as large as a sheet of plywood, 4' x 8' , were such an exquisite reflection of true faith and belief. The effort and devotion was immense. I will never forget them.



The fireworks during those twelve days before Christmas were wonderful. Attached to poles in the plaza, they spun and whistled and were painstakingly made of cardboard tubes and string fuse.  Ajijic is in the area sur de Guadalajara that has the larmost English speaking population, made of retired Canadians and Americans.



On the doors of the iglesia would be tacked pieces of paper with lists of names de  muchachos viviendo en el norte, who sent money for la Navidad to the church.  Hometown pride.



It is a beautiful time en Mexico.  So much respectand spirit.



Pues, feliz ano nuevo y

happy new year.

Yes this is great you have your own copy of a hard to find book
[WorldCat showed it is available at only 6 libraries] available to you
close by. But for other books that you might want to consider doing an
ILL for I would look at WorldCat. Check with your local library and see
if they subscribe to WorldCat and if you can access it at home or maybe
you can access it only at the branch or a University library. . .in
fact maybe taking Adult continuing education or being a friend of the
library will allow you to access WorldCat from home. Your local large
University library might surprise you as to how much information they
have on Jalisco. I live close to Duke and they have soooo much that it
will take me many years to be comfortable that I've accessed all the
info that might be valuable to my research.



WorldCat is a Library Catalog of Libraries all over the world. When you
access it and plug in keywords like "Los Altos de Jalisco" you get
results like this:

Please see the new file Steven has sent me dated 11-30-03.

Working together is definately the key to unlocking more knowledge.  
As, some of us have more years of knowledge regarding "Genealogy 
Research" it is great to share our resources.

Steven, has been very helpful with his knowledge and connections.  I 
hope to someday become very knowledgeable in this field.  I am a 
novice but learning more every day.  

I also want to thank Irma Gomez-Lucero for her wealth of knowledge on 
genealogy in Jalisco.

After Christmas and New Years pass I will try to work more on my 
genealogy.  I will also refer family members to this website.  So 
some day we can complete most of this very interesting puzzle of our 
ancestors.

Gracias and Adios,
Nena 


Tayagua, Zacatecas/How do you Celebrate?



for those of you looking in the Villanueva area. I was looking at film:
1158678 the
other day and found about 8 years worth of death records [1767-1775
about] for the hacienda de Tayagua on this mostly bautismos film. I've
seen that some are looking in Tayahua but am unsure if this is the same
place. Just FYI.



joseph



ps: Someone asked me how "we" celebrate christmas. And for the life of
me all I could think about was Tamales and later on New Years Menudo. A
meal and exchange of presents.



Does anyone know of how the people of Jalisco, Zacatecas and
Aguascalientes celebrated Christmas in earlier years?

Dora. . .Welcome to the group. Have a good look around the "files"
area for the genealogies of the other members. I might be wrong but I
was pretty sure someone else is looking in the Sain Alto area. 

Saw this interesting census from Magdalena. Were any of your people in
that area during this time period? If so this might be a good one to
order. . .then again maybe you already have it:

Ancestry of Steven F. Hern&#xE1;ndez

Dear Ranchos group:

 

Well, here it is!  In order to keep Joseph from going postal on us, and to wish everyone out there Happy Holidays, I have uploaded the first 9 generations of my family tree, into the files section of the Newsgroup.  I think that should be enough for now.  If there is a particular interest, focus, or question about any specific line, then I'll post them as the occasion arises.

 

Some may notice a nice healthy mix of different, and sometimes unique, surnames from places all over Los Altos de Jalisco (Arandas, Atotonilco el Alto, Ayo el Chico, Tepatitlán, San Miguel el Alto, Zapotlanejo, San Juan de los Lagos, Jalostotitlán, Lagos de Moreno, Teocaltiche, etc.), Aguascalientes, Nochistlán (Zac.), Guanajuato, and Michoacán.  That's why, for better or for worse, I've had to diversify my research to cover a wide area. 

 

I think it may be for the better, because that way I gain experience and knowledge researching in so many different places.  I am familiar with the conditions of the different archives, how complete each one is, and whether or not the IGI is complete or updated regarding the parrochial arvhives.


 

My information represents about ten years worth of research.  But, no matter how diligently any of us might research, we still have those nagging dead-ends.  I have some I have not been able to break through, no matter how hard I've tried.

 

That's it for now.  Hope everyone's enjoying this my favorite time of the year.  ¡Hay nos vemos!

 

Sincerely,

Steven Francisco Hernández-López

Anyhow,  María maybe we should coordinate our efforts when
researching in Zapotlanejo.  We'll get more done that way.

Exactly!!!! and yes I did start this group for more than just my own
genealogy. I sincerely think we as a group can accomplish more than as
individuals. All we need to do is keep an eye peeled for some of the
names of those researching our particular geographical areas in
Jalisco, Zacatecas and Aguascalientes, BUT



yes the big BUT,



but how do we do that if we don't do the minimum of at least sending in
our genealogies so others can view them and try to make connections.
Yes I know I'm harping on this thing again but I want it to be
perfectly clear that I want us to become a finely honed research
machine and for that to be accomplished the bare minimun needs to be
done. . .come on folks about 50% of you haven't sent in your
genealogies. I would very much hate to delete your memberships, but be
sure that March 1, 2004 I will be sending out private emails and after
that I'll start slashing memberships.

 
Until later,
Steven H.

take care,

Zapotlanejo, Jalisco, anyone?

Hola Paco,

It just so happens that I do have an Alvarez line from Zapotlanejo.  
I haven't looked at any films from Zapotlanejo, but I have a 
marriage record from Ixtlahuacán del Río for my twice 4th great-
grandmother Gertrudis Alvarez that says she was born in Zapotlanejo 
and grew up in Tescatitán. Gertrudis was born about 1771 to parents 
Nicolás Alvarez and María de la Ó Vizcarra. Let me know if we have a 
link.
