Yolanda's Ancestors

Yolanda:

Welcome to the group. It seems that you have ancestor information that goes back far enough where the resources we have available through this site and LDS will be useful. I am posting this on the research list as this is really a research-related question.

One good thing to do is to figure out what modern day municipality the "rancho" or hacienda that you are researching is in. This is necessary because records are organized this way in the LDS catalog and on this site. For example Estancia is in modern day Nochistlan, Zacatecas.

A quick search in on familysearch.com comes up with the following, which I believe is your great-grandfather. It looks like these names match your granparents. You should order the film to see who their parents were.

ROSALIO JAUREGUI
Marriages:
Spouse: PONPOSA GONZALES Family
Marriage: 03 MAY 1871 Nochistlan, Zacatecas, Mexico
Batch: M606264 Film: 0226733

If so, these would be your grandfather's siblings:

1. JOSE MARTINIANO JAUREGUI GONZALES
Gender: Male Christening: 05 JAN 1873 Nochistlan, Zacatecas, Mexico

2. JOSE SIMON JAURIGUI GONSALES
Gender: Male Christening: 01 MAR 1874 Nochistlan, Zacatecas, Mexico

As far as yout other set of grandparents, the last name RAUNO does not seem to come up in the LDS databases. Are you sure you have this name correct? There are a number of Maria Ulloas married in the late 1800s in Nochistlan but none of them to anyone by a name similar to RAUNO.
