Monte de Duranes

Lorenzo and I did have some communication and we don't seem to have the same surnames, at least not yet. In any case if there were a connection it would lead to my husband and not to me.

 

However I did find many surnames of Aguayo and Avelar married to Borroel's which is Lorenzo's family lineage and my surnames of interest on my father's side are Avelar (my grandfather and Aguayo, my grandmother. It seems that Nochistlan was and is heavily populated with Aguayo's and Avelars to this date.

 

In my search I also discovered a new surname of Ortega on my GGG maternal grandmother and my GGG paternal grandmother. Another unusual connection was in Julian Carrillo's birth document, it shows his grandmother, his mother's mother as Antonia Olmos, that might put my husband and myself as third or fourth cousins as my maternal grandfather was Lauro Olmos.

 

Pretty convoluted if you ask me!

Hacienda Pena Blanca

Ed, 
Glad to know that you liked those two links that I posted.

About "my secret methods" to search on the internet, well that's what 
they are: Secret.

Just kidding, Edward!!!

No big secret really.  I regularly use Google because I get the best 
results with it.  The key lies in the search expressions that you use.

It is what I would call the "shovel approach" versus the "tweezers 
approach".  In other words, using a single search expression or a 
couple of generic expressions will get you a scoop of information but 
not necessarily what you're looking for.  

What I try to do is to combine several selected words and/or phrases 
in my search expressions, sometimes even using exclusion filters, to 
narrow down the search results.  

In these particular case the reason you didn't find the same sites 
could've been that I used the letter "ñ" instead of the "n" in Peña.

And for other group members who are also interested in this and who 
haven't yet read Google's search tips, you can find them here:

Alicia's SLC Trip



Well sounds like it was a very rewarding trip. . .thats what you needed
was a spark to get the familia interested and involved in helping you
mine for more of that gold. And yes I know about the happy dance. . .my
heart does little backflips and the whole room in my Family History
Center kind of gets the point that I just found someone special from my
reaction. I actually cried*** when I found my GGG grandmothers death
certificate just like if she had died right then, it was a very moving
experience.



***well maybe I teared up a bit.



Now you'll have to slowly and at a more leisurely pace order some of
these films to your local FHC. Even put some of the better ones on
permanent. Use the SLC library for searching all the films that you
just have a hunch about or for books or a multitude of other materials
(i'm sure) that aren't available at your local FHC.



thanks for the play by play. . .glad you survived the joyful ordeal. I
think when I get old (oops to late) I want to move to SLC to retire. .
.that is if I can manage to live long enough to retire (doubtful).



thanks,



joseph

Joseph and
Ranchos members. My trip was very rewarding but very exhausting. I
arrived on Sunday afternoon and was promptly informed that all dining
establishments were closed on Sunday with the exception of the mall
which was about 4 city blocks away.  I proceeded to walk to the mall so
I could get to know the area, find the mall and find the family history
library that evening. I found the library that evening then walked back
to my hotel room to rest up for Monday morning.

Victor,

Thank you for your two emails. They are very interesting. One more question. How did you 
get this information. I "searched" all over the place and you seemed to find this without 
much difficulty. Please tell me your secret methods. Do you search via Mexico site? Search 
engine?

I found the library that evening then walked back to my hotel room to rest up for Monday morning.


Monday morning in order to maximize my time at the library I had the continental breakfast at the hotel then proceeded to the library. The first part of the morning I sat through a brief introductory video that told me most of what I already knew so I passed on the second video and proceeded downstairs to B1 which is the international floor. To those of you who know this process this is old news, but to those who have yet to go and are planning to go sometime in the future this might be of interest to you.


I spent the first half of the morning becoming familiar with the process, where everything was located such as the film, copiers, film viewers etc, etc. At 10:00 am I met with Jonathan, he gave me some good pointers on what to look for first and how to go about the search. I then very aggresively pulled 4 rolls of film thinking that I could easily get through these. Boy was I wrong, I was able to get through only 1 1/2 rolls in one day but these two rolls were packed with valuable data. I considered this the best one day manhunt. Fortunately I selected two very good rolls to begin with. I found a gold mine of information. It's unbelievable the joy and excitement you feel when you find someone you've been looking for.

Dear Emilie,

 

I also have roots in "La Chona". I don't have any of the names you
mentioned, but I do have other "Cervantes". These are:

Ana de \Cervantes\ Villasenor y de Alba who died 05 Jun 1629 in Santa Maria
de los Lagos, Encarnacion, Jalisco, Mexico.

and Ana's father, Francisco de \Cervantes\ Villasenor.

 

I'm sure that our ancestry lines will cross somewhere, as I've found that
just about every family from the Los Altos area is related.

 

Su Primo, (problamente)

Hacienda Pena Blanca

Ed, besides the link from my previous post, there's another one that 
refers to a "ghost comunity" by the same name of Peña Blanca, near 
Valparaiso.

Which one could it be?

Hacienda Pena Blanca

Ed, 

My guess is that it does exist still but not under a single 
ownership.  I found references to it in this website:

Hacienda Pena Blanca

it was in existence as of the year 2000. . .go to "links" go to "2000
Mexican Census" to to "Zacatecas" (wait awhile as it might take a minute
to download) then go to "Valparaiso" then go to "Pena Blanca."


[thanks Jonathan]

SLC Trip: was- Los Cristeros en Nochistlan

So how was your trip to SLC. . .I bet it was somewhat overwhelming. .
.kindof like the first time you went to a smorgasboard. Just a guess
since I've never been there to do research. but my time is coming one
day. . .

La Cristada

Natalie,

I think what you're refering to is the "Cristiada" or "Guerra de los 
Cristeros", a violent conflict between the Mexican government and the 
Catholic church in the 1920's.

You can do a search of those two words and you'll find a lot of 
information on that little know episode of the Mexican history.

The following link provides a summary from the Catholic perspective:

Marriage Dispensas: Was-Ramirez /Serendipitous research

Natalie wrote:

I was at the local FHC yesterday to view film #1164746/Valparaiso
Church Records- Informacion matrimonial, 1904-1907. I was perusing
the film - wanted to see who was from Astillero, besides my
grandfather and grandmother, when I came across a record that just
made me wonder (these are the basics, not finite details because I
didn't write them down): The bride and groom were both surnamed
Ramirez; the groom was 24 years old; the bride was a 40-something
widow; the bride was the sister of the groom's father. Has anyone
else come across a similar record/situation?

what great good luck. keeping it all in the family produces what are
called "Marriage Dispensas" Seems that when couples were related they
needed special permission to marry and this often involved lots of
investigation and genealogy lines being produced. I'm not the expert on
this subject and there are a few messages in the archives about
Dispensas. . .I'm not sure that was the subject name. . .check out some
of Steven Hernandez' messages. Also George Ryskamp has a good chapter in
his book about Mexican Genealogy on the subject. Did your Informacion
Matrimonial investigation have a genealogy tree included?


I wonder what the story
is? I know that this isn't exactly what this board is for - but just
thought I'd share a "research" experience.


This board is about Life, but life as related to Jalisco, Zacatecas,
and Aguascalientes. This takes in a very very broad range of subjects
since you can just about tie in anything in "life" to genealogy. That
being said I'm trying to figure out how your message was not what we are
here for. . .mind you that you won't always get an answer but it never
hurts (well it might hurt a little) it never hurts to ask.
