If your mom was registered in Chihuahua, Chihuahua then you hopefully can
find her in the civil records of that town. I'd say to look at the church
records but would be unsure which church she was baptised in. Later you can
order the films one at a time to find her. Anyway here is the listing of
the Civil records for Chihuahua up to the 1905 time period. . .I think that
is where I would start. If you need help in understanding how I found this
information on the Family Search Website let me know and I'll walk you through. 
Note that if you can't find them here and decide to check the church records
you might have to find them under the listing of "Hijos Naturales" since
you believe the parents were never married:

Hi
Joseph,

I have a little problem locating soneone that was born somewhere in the
1909 - 1914.

First let me mention that my grandparents didn't get married.  Their
names were Jesus Alejandro Mitre and Concepcion Gandara

Second, they had 5 children.  One in Chihuahua, Chihuahua that I know of
(my mother Elena Mitre Gandra.)  she was born on August 15, 1905.

The rest claim that they were born in El Paso, Texas. Which I don't believe
and I will tell you why.

My grandfather Jesus Mitre was a string player and played at the theator
Lydico philharmonic in Mexico City where I was told that the rest of the clan
were born.

Problem is I don't know where to search.  The LDS don't have it and
I don't know who to write to.

This is why I am asking if you can help me locate a person, or place that
I can ask for registration, and or baptizos.

Your help would be very appricated

Thank you

Mary
