I am curious if anyone has taken the DNA test to help with their genealogy search and what type of information it provided. I have hit a brick wall that seems as big as the Wall of China and kicking around the idea of trying DNA. Any info. would help!

I found a 109 marker match. The only way you are going to find out if there
is a match to your DNA is by getting a test yourself.

My brother tested his YDNA for my genealogy research in 2005. My father was born in Tepatitlan and I've traced his family back to the early 1700's in Tepatitlan in the church records posted online at Familysearch.org. My father's YDNA Haplogroup is J2b1. I expect it will help confirm male members of his family. So far, I have not found any men with that Haplotype who trace their families back to Tepatitlan or have similar ancestry. Though I check with all the online databases I'm aware of, I have not found a match from anywhere -- yet. I believe that when more people test, I will find matches. Meanwhile, I continue with regular genealogy research. DNA can be used to confirm your paper research, but it will not do your research for you.

You can test your YDNA and to help confirm your paper research, which is the most basic test. You can also test with a FamilyFinder test and/or with a company like 23andMe and find out more about yourself. Both will help find matches. It's

Linda.....what are the origins of  J2b1, and whom did you use for the testing.
Thank you.

I had my husband test his DNA though FamilyDNA, and he is haplogroup T1. His ancestors were from Jalisco for many generations going back as far as I can trace them, to the late 1600s. T1 is very rare we were told--mesopotamian. We have not found a match to anyone except to one man in Texas. I have had no response from him. I guess no males with ancestors in Jalisco in this group don't have that haplogroup.

I guess my mtDNA is of no use to Mexico (or is it?). I am haplogroup C, Native American Pre-Colombian, and my female line is Pueblo Indian (Piro/Manso/Tewa) all from New Mexico.

My Felgueres Y-DNA ancestral line is T1, the old K2. The original Felgueres, Domingo Antonio Felgueres, came to Mezquitic, Jalisco as Lieutenant Governor of that area in 1790. Domingo Antonio was born in Villaviciosa, Asturias and baptized in the Iglesia San Salvador de Fuentes.

There is another Nuestros Ranchos member (Rodriguez, I believe) who is T1 also.

Hi Emilie,

I am also T1 and so are the Alcalá de Mendoza families from Los Altos, at
least. I've found and contacted many people that are from our same group
from all around the world, from Colombia, Panamá, Brazil, Australia, South
Africa, Turkey, Spain, Italy, and some more.

May I ask what your husband's last name is? If you want we can share our
results and compare them.

Thanks,

Rick

Hello Rick,

Thanks for your response. My husband's surname is Garcia, which has led me to a brick wall.

The farthest back I have gotten on his line is his gggg-grandfather Joseph Cayetano Garcia (espanol) born May 211, 1738 in Santa Barbara, Aguascalientes, and his second wife Anacleta Calzada (yndia) born on July 12, 1772 in San Juan de Los Lagos. Their son Jose Maria Garcia (espanol), was born Dec 12, 1796 on the Mariquita Hacienda in Jalisco. He married Maria Gregoria Morones, who was born on May 23, 1792 in Encarnacion de Diaz. Jose Maria and Gregoria had a son Estanislado de Jesus Garcia, born in 1825 in Enc; he married Antonia Ornelas, born March 1834 in Enc. Their son Simon was born in Enc on Oct 28 1864. He married Marciana Cervantes who was born in Enc on Oct 20, 1869. Their son Primitivo Garcia was born on June 10, 1890 in Enc and he married Maria Hinojosa de Guterrez who was born on June 6, 1893 in Zacatecas. Their son Enrique is my husband's father and he was

Hi Emilie,

I believe this is the Cayetano Garcia you're looking for:

Yes, thank you, Rick,

So it is Pedro Cayetano and not Joseph Cayetano. I had found a Joseph Garcia also born in 1738 whose parents were Nicolas Garzia and Maria Quiteria, but they were "indio" from "Puruano" and I didn't that that was the right one since everybody else was "espanol".

Thanks Ed,

I will tell my husband. He will be pleased to know there are other T1s from Jalisco.
