I would like to research the Femat, Montanez,Reyes, Perez, and Richarte surnames. Helen Femat Fisher
Helen,
Jalisco, Zacatecas, and Aguascalientes cover a large geographical area.
Can you narrow down your research to one of these three states or even
to some specific areas within one or more of the three states?
Later when you feel comfortable why not send in an introduction giving
us the surnames for the specific areas within our target area you are
researching? You never know but someone in the group might be
researching one of your surnames in your area of research.
If you get a chance log in and go to the files ---> members genealogies
thanks,
joseph

I am Helen Femat Fisher. My family members come from Aguascalientes.
My grandfather, Tiburcio Femat was born in San Jose de Jesus Maria, Aguascalientes. His parents Hermenegildo Femat and wife Antonia Montanez de Femat were from Aguascalientes, Aguas.
My father Raul Femat, was born in Aguascalientes, Aguas. we tried to get his birth certificate but it had burned in a fire. We were able to get his b aptism cert. As far as I have been able to tell, Antonia Montanez parents Tiburcio Montanez Reyes and Simona Richarte were both from Aguascalientes, A.
My grandmother, Francisca Perez, was born in Rincon Grande, Jalisco, her mother was Justa Gonzalez Montanez de Perez from Ojuelos Ledesma, Jalisco. Her father was Pedro Perez, I asume from the same area. Justa's father was Secundino Gonzalez married to Ysabel Montanez. I know that my grandmother's Montanez and my grandfather's Montanez side were connected. Thank you for trying to help me. Helen

Helen:
It appears someone at LDS is researching your family as well, since there are a number of entries of your ancestors in the IGI that indicate they were submitted by an LDS member. Is it you by any chance?
Here is your grandfather's marriage. It appears your grandfather was named after his gandfather:
Hermenegildo Femat
Parents:
Father: Tiburcio Femat Family
Mother: Simona Richarte
Marriages:
Spouse: Antonia Montanez Family
Marriage: 1874 San Francisco,De Los Romo, , Aguascalientes, Mexico

Here is another interesting entry that may or may not be your ancestor but the dates seem to match and the fact that this woman's father's name was Tiburcio makes me think that the information in my previous message which was included in the IGI from an individual's pedigree rather than an actual extraction of a record may be incorrect... both Hermengildo's father's name and perhaps the location of the marriage.
If this is the correct Simona Richarte, the name Tiburcio in your family comes from the Richarte side not the Femat side. You should also note that Femat is spelled Femad, Fermad, Fermat, etc. in the records.

I'm unsure of when your father was born but the civil records from
Aguas, Aguas are pretty complete. Have you tried looking on some of
these films at your local family history center? What year was your
father born? then again his birth certificate might not give you more
info than you already have on his baptism cert.

ps: also you might have a look in the films section of the group and see
if any of the batch numbers there match any of your research locations.
This might help in your search for those relatives that are back in the
1870's-1880's and before

Helen,
What areas of Mexico are the focus of your research for these surnames? Do you have specific cities or towns within our 3 target states?
