New Member - Luna/De Luna Family

Hi everyone. I'm new to the group and I am excited to be a member.

I'm looking for any relatives of my Grandfather. Here is what I have so far.

My grandfather is Tiburcio Fernandez Luna. He was baptized on 16 Aug 1885 as Jose Tiburcio De Luna in Adjuntas del Refugio, Zacatecas, Mexico but was born on 11 Aug 1885 in Malanoche, Valparaiso, Zacatecas, Mexico. He first married Antonia Hernandez in 1910 and had three children, Euphemia Luna (b. 16 Aug 1915; d. before 1918), Simona Luna (b. 28 Oct 1913; d. 1920 in Texas) and another aunt who is still living. He married my grandmother Vicenta/Vienta Robles on 15 Feb 1918 and they had another 10 kids.

His known siblings are:

(1)Lino Luna (Jose Lino De Luna) born 1882 & baptized on 23 Sep 1882 in La Purisima, Valparaiso, Zacatecas, Mexico. Was married to Estefana Resendes and I believed he died on January 1967 in San Antonio, Bexar, Texas.

(2)Miguel Luna (Jose Miguel De Luna) born on 29 Sep 1892 in Malanoche, baptized on 02 Oct 1892 in Adjuntas del Refugio, Zacatecas. He wife's name was Louisa. Death date is unknown and I don't know if they had any children.

(3)Martin Luna (Jose Martin De Luna) born in 1888 and baptized on 15 Jan 1888 at La Purisima, Valparaiso, Mex. He was married to Josepha Ramos and as far as I know, had 7 children who are still living.

There is a story that there was a sister as well but I have no information on her, no name, birth or death dates. I also know that all four boys came to the U.S. in 1918. All but Lino settled in California. Lino stayed in Texas.

Their parents are Salome De Luna and Monica Fernandez. I have no birth or death dates for Salome but I know his father was Bonifacio De Luna and his mother was Maria Dolores Castro. Monica was born about 1860 and died on 20 Jan 1950 in Bexar, Texas. Her parents were Eugenio Fernandez and her mother was Gerarda Pinedo.

If you think we might be related, let me know!
