Olivar Family


By alicebb - Posted on 20 August 2008

Good Evening Jonathan and All,
I've hit the wall with my family and wondered if your vast knowledge and resources could help tear it down. The only actual/documented information I've obtained is from Laredo border crossings:
2/12/1917 #4774 GGrandfather, Rosalio Onate age 60 (b. 1857/58?) Villa Garcia, Zacatecas.
2/18/1917 #4785 GrAunt, daughter, Angela Onate age 30 (b.1887/88?), Villa Garcia.
3/11/18 #4775 GrUncle, son, Adolfo Onate age 22 (b. 9/27/96) Aguascalientes, Aguas. Adolfo's bdate was taken from a US work permit that stated his birthplace as Villa Garcia, Zac.
My grandfather, Luis Onate,is not listed on any crossings. If it weren't for these bits of info, I wouldn't even know that my family existed! I can't find birth records/film for anyone, even my mother! I've searched films for both Villa Garcia and Aguascalientes. I even made a trip to Aguas, Aguas last spring to search for Rosalio's tomb I visited as a young woman with my mother in a church there. Everyone in the group appears to be so helpful, so knowledgable, and so related. For two years I've read all the emails, and never find a family connection. I've done everything I know to do and research, but I know that someone out there must know or have some other resources that could help. I thank you in advance for your assistance and I will continue reading. Alice BB
