is listed as the birth place, what does that really mean? How do I
find the histories of these ranches on the roles people played in
them? What that information be on the same website? I haven't really
looked and I don't understand Spanish too well although I can try and
muddle my way through.

Llamas and Encinillas, both outside of Tlaltenango de Sanchez Roman,
Zacatecas.
There is a ranch just outside of Jerez called Lo de
Luna. Many of my ancestors came from this ranch. I
believe my uncles (Garcia de la Cadena branch)
purchased the ranch from the Munoz family in the early
1700's.
