My name is Paula Wakefield and I am searching for maternal ancestors---any help will be appreciated. Thank You
Octaviano Castorena and Refugio Macias are my GGgrandparents. ( Maternal --moms' dads line) I have no info on them other than the following children.
MARIA MARCOS CASTORENA MACIAS-b.4/25/1853--C.-4/26/1853--Sagrario Metropolitano, Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico
FERNANDO CASTORENA MACIAS-b.-5/30/1854-C.-5/31/1854--Sagarario Metropolitano, Guadalajara, Jalisco,Mexico
TEOFILA CASTORENA MACIAS-C.-1/10/1856--Sagrario Metropolitano, Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico
MARIA VICENTA DE LOS DOLORES CASTORENA MACIAS-C.-7/20/1857-Santa Fe, Guanajuato, Guanajuato, Mexico
JOSE HIGINIO CASTORENA MACIAS-C.-1/11/1859-Nuestra Senora de La Soledad, Irapuato, Guanajuato,Mexico
ANASTACIA CASTORENA MACIAS-C.-4/26/1862-El Sagrario or Santo Domingo, Zacatecas,Zacatecas
REFUGIO CASTORENA MACIAS--( this was my Ggrandmother ) C.-6/28/1864--Sagrario Metropolitano, Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico
I don't know why this family moved so much--as I said I can't find anything on the parents-Octaviano Castorena and Refugio Macias.
Refugio Castorena married HILARIO HERNANDEZ- son of Ramon Hernandez and Maria Zenobia Guerra. This family was from Guanajuato, Mexico. The only child I can find whose parents were Hilario Hernandez and Refugio Castorena was
MARIA HERNANDEZ-B.-5/25/1892--c.6/5/1892--Sagrario, Aguacalientes,Aguacalientes,Mexico
I know there were at least 5 older sibs--these included my grandfather
I was able to get a copy of Marias' Baptismal record-It names both sets of grandparents, that is how I was able to go back another generation but I am blocked--I even went through 5000 Castorena surnames and no luck with Octaviano. For that matter I can not find his wife Refugio Macias nor my other set of GGrandparents-Ramon Hernandez and Zenobia Guerra.
Any help to trace my ancestors is truly appreciated. I'd have a séance but--if it did work they probably wouldn't show up there either.
Thank You
Paula
