History, Culture and General Discussion

Is anyone related to Diego de Tervino? Born abt 1540 in Mexico City D.F.? I found a source that has his genealogy going back several hundreds of years. He descends from King Alfonso VI of Castilla.

...Howdy all you LERMA researchers from Zacatecas. I just wanted you to know that I came across an article about a Solomon LERMA, in our archives in Oklahoma City, OK. I thought about all of ya, so I am including the article here. Heck, I wished at this time I could add this fine young man to my ancestors. Hopefully (I know it is a HUGE chance) one of you might have him in your database. BIF...I have added several obits to the rootsweb.com, Jalisco, Aquascalientes & Zacatecas boards. I wasn't for sure whether I should add them here or not. Okay, back to Solomon:

Wishing you a blessed filled New Year.
Are you ready for more researching? Maybe finding a primo/a here at Nuestros Ranchos? It has been exciting to read of your triumphs.

As for me - I just called the local FHC, and films I ordered in mid-Nov are finally in - so I hope to view them soon. FYI - I have the following films: # 1164728 (Reg. Parroquiales, la Purisima, Valparaiso, Zac., Bautismos, 1870-1876); and #1164741 (same location, Informacion Matrimonial, 1878-1892). It has been quite a while since I have looked at films - and I wonder if you have some tips to share about the BEST way to RECORD INFORMATION from the films, and the BEST way to COMPILE the information. Please share your RESEARCH ideas/methods that work - I am always looking for ways to work smarter (not harder). Y'all take care

I'm not into poetry but every once in a while a poem comes along that
rocks me. Listen to "My Roots Run Deep" by Bobby LeFebre. Also listen to
the entire Tiahui Podkast #5 for other poetry especially a poem by Lil

I just arrived this morning from Los Angeles and finally have a moment to catch up on Nuestros Ranchos postings. I wanted to share a bit about my trip to Mexico this year. While I was down there for a wedding and therefore largely busy with family events, I did get some genealogy-related things done.

this is already in the links page but thought I would re introduce it
since I just saw it again on the Scout Report:

Dear Ranchos Members;

I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and everyone of you for your contributions whether major or minor to this group. You know something is great when you cannot imagine life before you had it. It's like the microwave or the toaster, they just sit there on your counter and you may choose to use it or not but when you need it and it's not there you know you have to have it. All of you are like my microwave, or toaster, each a different brand, color, size and shape but useful and indispensable none the less. I can't imagine life without Nuestros Ranchos and that means "YOU"

Was someone looking for Rancho De los Pajarros? Ifound one in California metioned in a book about early California
