Joseph Puentes and Members,

Please note that I have added the following Film #'s and IGI Batch Numbers in the Films Section:

For Etzatlan, Jalisco:
Batch M602979/#0282233 Marriages 1880-1885

Please keep in mind that the Research list
(research@nuestrosranchos.com) is for communication directly related to
our research in Jalisco, Zacatecas, and/or Aguascalientes

There is a lot more flexibility of discussion on the General list

Carlos de Esparza & Rafael de Esparza

Carlos arrived in Ecuador in 1582

Rafael arrived in Mexico City in 1578 (before Lope!)

I have no doubt there related somehow, they descend from the same House of Esparza.

Did anybody go to the Texas Hispanic Conference?

I was hoping for some kind report or article.

Hello,

I just wanted to let everyone know, that Lynn Turner a member of the Ranchos
group, will be teaching at the conference in Salt Lake. So I suggest that
those of us, that attend stop by and say hi, to Lynn.

Hello everyone,

I just wanted to let you know I have finally published my genealogical work on my father's family from Nueva Galicia.

The Gonzales, Calvillo, Ramos, Alva, Macias and Flores families immigrated to Azusa in the San Gabriel Valley of Los Angeles, California in the early 1900’s. These families and their descendants came from various towns in Nueva Galicia which covers the span of nearly 600 years.

Hello everybody! I wento the FHC and happen to notice they had the Catalogos a Indias from 1509-1680. I quicky remembered about Don Lope! So I scanned myself a copy of Lope and his maestro Don Enrique de Manleon.

I have just posted a new link in the LINKS section of the site that points to the site of the Biblioteca Publica del Estado de Jalisco which is run under the auspices of the Universidad de Guadalajara.

I am including this email both to the group and to you. The
NuestrosRanchos.com group is absolutely FREE. I have never asked anyone
to submit 14 generations and sometimes I've accepted as few as 1

This person would like to know about the Villasenor/Cervantes/Lara
ancestral lines. You can either email me your replies or to the group
and I'll forward the messages.

thanks,

joseph
