"Los Rodartes", Jerez, Zacatecas History


By Anna Miklovic - Posted on 03 December 2016

Is there a history book or published paper on the first Spanish families of Zacatecas, Mexico, preferably in English? I have read the papers from John P Schmal on the History of Zacatecas and its indigenous people but I wanted to know if there has been a write up on the ranches and the first families of Jerez, Zacatecas, in particular, Los Rodartes. I am right at the point in my research wanting to know more of the peoples of my ancestors and why they settled where they did. Who was the first Rodarte family from the “Los Rodartes” area? Where did they come from and when? Any suggestions or guidance would be appreciated. Thank you.
