AliceBB,

The reason why you do not see the 1930 Census for Aguas is because the census has not been scanned yet. If I remember correctly, I think that is presumed to be lost.

Hello Everyone!

I have been a member of El Ranchos since the summer but I have never written an Intro with a list of names and dates so I decided to do it and see if I have any luck and someone recognizes someone. Also I wanted to ask the group a couple of questions. I live in Canada so at my Family Centre they seem not to be able to help me out. Linda had answered an inquiry of mine of how to see civil records mentioning to ask the centre but they seem not to know. The civil records, Aguascalientes, Ojuelos, Jalisco, Pinos, Zacatecas, I would want to see have to do with Aurelio Martinez, my grandfather who was a widower and had a son. I am completely stumped, I can not find the marriage or the birth of the son. His dates are mentioned in the Martinez Davila names. I would be forever grateful if I get a break threw.

I'm hoping those of you who speak or understand Spanish better than I do can help me with this. I'm having problems with family relationships. This record is from Jerez Zacatecas.

I tried to post my gedcom to this site but it timed out so it's on Rootsweb.com complete with sources but with many approximate dates due to missing years in the records.

I am been researching family ancestors, my g-g-g-g-grandfather's name is Angel Arch from Sayula married Mercedes Gutierres in 1848, but I have not been able to find any decendents...
The Arch family lived in "Hacienda De la Canada Taxunaxtla, Jalisco

Ray Jauregui, Bill Figueroa and John Gonzales,

Thanks to each of you for your replies and your interest in Los Jauregui's from the regions of Los Altos.
We may never know the truth about the Jauregui's and yes it's probably pretty colorful lore about some Don Jauregui, which one? we'll probably never know but to hear these ladies talk you would think they knew firsthand. All I did was listen, I don't have much on the Jauregui's and It will be a long time before I can resume my research while working 45 hours a week plus commute time. I still enjoy reading everyone's postings, especially all the newcomers, welcome all you newbies to Nuestros Ranchos.

Pam /Alicia,

As a Jauregui I read your comments and I must say they tickled my funny bone a little. In that it is possible for one man to have spread himself so unselfishly, the probability is low . The church was omnipotent in those days and to allow a man to behave like that is hard to rationalize. Alicia, your relatives' claim may have some truth to it, but I think time has embellished the truth. I found the first Jauregui in the Nochistlan area was, Juan Francisco Jauregui, from San Sebastian, Guipouzcoa, Viscaya, Spain. He married Josefa Chavez de Siordia in Dec 1662 in Nochistlan. They had 10 children, 7 boys and 3 girls. They in turn had large families and by the fifth generation the Jaureguis in the region numbered several hundred. This could be why the oral history has gotten colorful. Yes, one man started the Jauregui line there but not by being a "Don Juan". I DON'T THINK.

Hi Alicia and Pam:

I was in Nochistlán last November and was lucky to find a book : "Nochistlán de Zacatecas". Cuatro siglos de su vida. By Cleotilde Evelia Quirarte. I found it at the church library.

I too am researching the Jauregui family and am early in my search.

Here is what I know:
Domingo JAUREGUI was born ca 1902 in Nochistlán,
Zacatecas. The family story is that he came from
Basque Spain. Domingo married Maria LOMELI

Thank you for your help!
