My Ramos are neither from Chihuahua nor really Ramos.  The name goes

back only to the late 1700s in Totatiche, Jalisco, where a priest who

apparently refused to recognize the name of the family who had taken in

an "expuesto" (abandoned child) by the name of Ramon, assigned the last

name of Ramos instead to his children.



It seems that children born after the priest changed in the parish got

the name Aranzazu.

I agree with Victor's opinion about the podcast series.  I especially

enjoyed the interview with Rosalinda.  In case anyone is wondering, I

am her 26 time (probably more) cousin that she discusses in the

interview.  It has been a pretty amazing discovery to find long lost

cousins doing genealogy research.

Well, Marge,
 
Our obsession could lead to illness if we are not careful.  I find that when I am on a tear, I spend too many hours poring over records on the internet with the glare of the screen and artificial lights, at the FHC, reading, taking notes, etc and neglect my sleep and exercise and diet.  I notice that my eyesight has really suffered lately.  I need to remember to take frequent breaks, etc  It seems too that I plan my life now around trips to the haunts of my ancestors and cemeteries and Salt Lake City and countless university, city, and state libraries.  I risk snakebites in old cemeteries, etc.  One rattlesnake bite could ruin my whole day, my husband says.

I don't think of genealogy an illness.  I think it's more of desire to
know about ourselves and we just get carried away to the exclusion of
all else.

That is a great point Lili,
 
Everytime I meet a teacher, I tell him/her that a good project for young children as soon as they learn to read and write is starting a family tree and interviewing their relatives about what life and school was like when they were young, what games they played, what language they spoke, where their ancestors came from and what that country was like.  It would give them a good picture of their place in life and make their future studies of economics, geography and history come to life and be more interesting.  Everyone has some value to somebody, and we can all live on in recorded history through documentation of lives lived.

I suggest this question: is there any project in the school fields
to promote or to motive children an young teens and adults to look
for names and history of ancestor? If not, would it not be
interesting and fruitfull for every body in the future? cause I ask
my self from where I acquired this obsesion illness?
