My husband met a man recently who is from Zacatecas. My husband told him of
our plans to someday go to Jalisco to visit the areas I have been

I have records/data from the Archivo General de la Nacion (Valparaiso, Sombrerete, Zacatecas, etc) which I find very helpful. My records were extracted from the Archives themselves and sent to me by a friend. Unfortunately I have had little luck in trying to find out how to locate and use the Archivo General de la Nacion; their website is not user friendly and so far useless for me. I emailed the Family History Center that I use and asked how to use the Archive General de la Nacion, and I obtained the following response, which I will use in my investigations of the Archivo General:

I find myself rushing toward errors. Many apologies for overlooking this

interview is on Infoblog by Eileen O'Shea. Please have a listen:

The Library of Congress has a lot of documents, books and manuscripts on their website. One manuscript of particular interest to this group is the title in my subject line, written by Mexican lawyer, Matias de la Mota Padilla in 1742. It is hand-written, but very legible. It contains a lot of names of people and places dating from the Conquest to 1742 in Nueva Galicia. The link to the Library of Congress is already in the links section. You can find the book by clicking on "Collections" and then browsing through the list of Selections from the National Library of Spain.
