Robert,

I thought I had lots of Escobedos [Escovedo] in my lines, but I see I have mostly Acevedos.

However, I did find one Escovedo. She was Mariana de Escovedo, an espanola (Spanish), who married a Pablo Jose Suriano, a mulato, around 1797, probably in Tepetongo or Salitrillo. That means she might have been born around 1777. Mariana was also listed in her children's birth records under various names such as Maria Ana Guadalupe [Mata] or [Flores] or [De La Torre]. This has made it hard for me to find her birth record so I don't know who her parents were or where she was born. I suspect her mother may have been a Mata or Flores or a Delatorre; those families were as prominent in Zacatecas as the Escovedos. Sometimes they used only their mother's surname.

In the pilot site for Family Search, they have transcribed the records for Tlaltenango, Tepechitlan, and Pinos in Zacatecas, and many Escovedos are listed in those communities. I might find Mariana when they get to transcribing the Monte Escobedo and other films. If her record was lost or among those not filmed, then I am out of luck.

It is interesting to me that you have relatives from Guadalupe. My father's sister Soledad Olague was born there. My father Guadalupe Olague was born in Jerez in 1903. The birth records from that time were lost during the Revolution. My grandfather Francisco Olague and his brother Ygnacio and their brother in law Jose Davila Garcia were conscripted into some army, I don't know which side, and were scheduled to be executed by firing squad but Jose's wife, sister of Francisco and Ygnacio, appealed to someone and they let them all leave on the train bound for Chihuahua City and the El Paso, Texas border. That was in 1913 when my father was 10 years old. None of them ever went back to Mexico.

I will do some research and see if I can find any ancestors and descendants of my Mariana Escobedo and see if she had a common ancestor among your ancestors. I'll let you know.

I am interested to know if anyone is familiar with the terrain of Zacatecas and the ranchos nearby. Mariano Esparza was from an area called Corro in Zacatecas. I am having difficulty finding Corro on the map of Zacatecas. If anyone has any information or any family line that trace to the Corro area or Noria de los angeles please write back.

Hi everyone. I am fairly new to this site and looking for anyone with Escobedo's in their family tree. I have my genealogy traced back to around 1820 but have not had much luck getting more information. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Robert Escobedo

Does anyone out there in nuestros ranchos have a family tree of Hernan's decendents down to the year 1750 only? Gracias...........

I am intrigued with this thread, as I believe that there was a migration
pattern from Michoacan to Jalisco and Zacatecas. Where the initial migration
began and ended is unsure...but it does not seem an impossibility that such
migration(s) existed. I believe Emilie has made a connection with families from
Michoacan to Jalisco. Interesting, as not too long ago, some relatives from
the "Altos" considered those from the western part of Michoacan part of the
"Altos" family....wondering if they knew something that our records and DNA
can't prove.

What do folks know about the historical relationship between our area of
research (Jalisco, Zacatecas, and/or Aguascalientes) and Guanajuato?

Yes I understand that is such a general question but really any of your
thoughts would be appreciated.

Just a small heads up:

Family Tree Magazine in their January 2009 Issue (the one at the newsstands now) they have article at tracing Mexican Ancestry. I haven't had the time to really sit down and read it word for word. But the little that I read, seemed pretty good.

My name is Nick Perez and I am looking for any Bugarin roots from Zacatecas. My grand father Miguel Bugarin was born near Atolinga Zacatecas and he owned a rancho called La Noria. He died in 1952 in Atolinga. He was aproximately 42 years old.
Any leads will be greatly appreciated.

Danny I just got a chance to view your submission, what a wonderful job you did of putting together your lineage and to have so many family photos is amazing. You have obviously worked very hard to collect and document.

Thank you for sharing, makes me wish I had family from your part of Mexico since there are so many in Nuestrosranchos from there..

again, well done!

I was looking at a film in the 1741 time frame for Zacatecas, Zacatecas
for Confirmations. Was the person sponsoring the person being confirmed
also called a Padrino? I thought that was just for Godparents at the
baptism? The records I was looking at mostly only had a single person
sponsoring them wasn't there suppose to be two sponsors? Was the sponsor
a serious commitment like it was to be a Godparent in that many times
they chose a family member to be the sponsor?

http://h2opodcast.com/nr/misc/Ahijados.JPG
(in this picture above is this for confirmations or baptism, did they
call the confirmed an Ahijado? I thought that meant Godchild).

maybe that film had information about baptisms as well,

Iti is my pleasure to introduce a Miguel Angel Muñoz Borrego to the
group. He has been a member for a few months and his genealogy file is
listed here: http://www.nuestrosranchos.org/node/16979 His email addres
is: miguel.munoz15@hotmail.com Mr. Muñoz Borrego is in charge of all the
archives for the state of Coahuila. The reason this can be important to
the members of the nuestrosranchos.org group is that our relatives
traveling north from Jalisco, Zacatecas, and/or Aguascalientes most
likely traveled via the Ruta de Plata and that road traveled directly to
Saltillo, Coahuila. Many traveled North and also traveled to the mines
in Monterrey and other locations. Mr. Muñoz Borrego has commented that
he can help individuals researching outside our area of research along
the Ruta de Plata. He not only knows about his state of Coahuila, but is
well informed with Nuevo Leon as well as Jalisco, Zacatecas, and
Aguascalientes. Of special interest to those traveling to Mexico might
be that Mr. Muñoz Borrego is very familiar with the other heads of the
archives in Jalisco, Zacatecas, and Aguascalientes.

The following is not about genealogy, but about some contemporary (i.e., 20th century) Mexican culture.
The Smithsonian's National Museum of American History (NMAH), in Washington, DC, has undergone some extensive renovation and is scheduled to re-open on Nov 21. The section on Popular Culture will now be called "Thanks For the Memories", and one of the exhibits will feature "Cantinflas". Those of you of a certain age may remember a Mexican comedian named Cantinflas who appeared in many Mexican films, mostly in the '40's and '50's, and also appeared in the US film "Around the World in 80 Days". You can read more about the overall museum renovations here:

Hi,
My distant uncle, Dimas Marquez, told me that Pedro Marquez, who wrote
the book "La Historia de San Juan de los Lagos" told him that Diego
Marquez came from Sauz de los Marquez. Now, Pedro never told Dimas about
Jusepe Marquez who got married in 1614 in Santa Maria de los Lagos (now
Lagos de Moreno). So, I don't know how Pedro found that information but
he mistook Diego M. of 1617, son of Jusepe M., for Diego M. of the
1500's. Dimas told me that he had never heard of Jusepe M. Pedro statrs
his book just after the miracle of 1623. Diego M., son of Jusepe M.,
helped build the first church in San Juan after the miracle.
I need someone who can help me prove that Jusepe M. is the son of Diego
Marquez de los Olivos who entered San Juan in the 1580's.

Here is more information by that person looking for a professional
researcher. His email is below. If you think you can work with him or
know of someone that might be able to help him please contact him
directly. I and Carol Muro in the group both have roots to Sauz de Los
Marquez but not in the time frame he is talking about below. It seems if
the information is correct that Sauz de Los Marquez is a pretty old
community.

It is not mandatory but my curiosity would like to stay in the loop if
anyone finds more information.

thanks,

joseph

Dear Danny,

My parents are both from Jalostotitlan too. You and I both
descend from the couple, Ponciano Gutierrez & Ma. Nicolasa Gutierrez.
Their son, Yreneo Gtz (married to Paulina Gonzales) was my Great

Dear Daniel--

My husband is related to Juan GODINEZ born about 1660 and married about 1684 to Micaela de Estrada. Their son Antonio GODINES was baptized 25 Mar 1685 in Ocotlan, Jalisco and married 6 Mar 1707, in La Barca to Manuela de LOMELIN, who was the daughter of Juan Baptista de OROSCO and Beatris VASQUES.

I have done extensive research in the past 30 plus years. I would be interested in hearing about your lines of GODINEZ. There is also another family of Godinez that was living in the Ranchoviejo area of Atotonilco el Alto. That is now the village of Santa Elena, I believe.

I have a number of BRIONES names. They are not on my husband's direct line but apparently married into other families. I have tracked them because of their LOMELIN connection. Some of these names are to be found in the Ranchovijo area, as mentioned above.

Thanks for your email and I will be looking forward to your next one.

Sincerely,
Patricia Burton

Dear Canito--

I am going to Santa Rita, Ayotlan, Jalisco, for one week at the end of November. One of the names you are apparently interested in is Briseno and so am I. Here is what I have:

Atilano GODINEZ son of
Claudio GODINEZ and Casimira MACIEL

Married 11 Nov 1858 in La Barca, Jalisco, to

Paula BRISENO daughter of

Antonio BRISENO and Andrea JIMENEZ

Children of Atilano and Paula:

1. Maria Florencia GODINEZ baptized 28 Oct 1861 in Ayo el Chico

2. Maria Placida GODINEZ baptized 13 Oct 1867 in Ayo el Chico

3. Maria Delfina GODINEZ baptized 30 Dec 1869 in Ayo el Chico
mar. to Ysabel BRISENO son of Tomas BRICENO and Ysabel NAVARRO
child of Ysabel and Delfina was:
Jose Margarito BRISENO born 4 Dec 1885 in Santa Rita, Ayo el Chico
who married Leodegracia BERNA on
10 May 1909 in Ayo el Chico, Jalisco

4. Serapio GODINEZ born 1872?
mar. Maria Juana NUNEZ daug. of Victor NUNEZ and Luis GODINEZ
child of Serapio and Maria Juana was:
Maria Guadalupe GODINEZ 22 Dec 1915 in Santa Rita, Ayo el Chico

5. Pragedis GODINEZ born 1875?
mar. Dolores GONZALEZ daug. of Gumesindo GONZALEZ and Refugio PEREZ
their child Leonor GODINEZ born 23 Jan 1920 in Santa Rita,
Ayo el Chico, Jalisco

These are not my GODINEZ lines but with the families coming from La Barca into Santa Rita, it is all rather interesting to me. Besides, I am researching these lines for a fellow who is GODINEZ.

Another family name I am interested in is BARRAGAN and they seem to have been in El Carmen, La Barca, Jalisco.

One of my friends, named Esther has ancestors in Govenador and Portezuelo, which are also in the municipio of La Barca.

Does any of this ring a bell with you?

Sincerely,
Patricia Burton

Antonio, I don't know if it is fine to write in english to you, I think it's ok. I was checking to information about the members and the lastnames they serach and I found yours (Topete). According what I read, you don't have any information about your family. I'm glad to tell you that I have a book (that you can look for) which talks about your family back to 1700's This is a very interestin book and has a lot of information with many genealogical lines. The book talks about the history of the region you are searching back to 1500's

I highly recomend you to look for the book, if you can find it let me know so we can arrange to send you the informacion (it's a vast book 600 pages). The name is: "Ameca, Protofundacion Mexicana" and was written by Jesus Amaya TOPETE. Segunda Edicion 1983 Gobierno del estado de Jalisco.

Hope you find this message useful and I feel happy to contribute with you.
