Yndio Genizaro

Hi Joseph,

Thanks for the envy.  The frustrating thing for me is that the record which identifies my ancestor as  does not allow me to search much further.  As you know indigenous people needed permission from a european to legally use a surname.  I found this information in film #1156614, Bautismos de Senecú in the Juarez Cathedral Archives.  I quickly looked into my copies of the microfilms and found two individuals, 4 Oct. 1793 and 11 Nov. 1793, described in the body of the text as  and  respectively.  Also there's another entry describing a family as .  Senecú was a very diverse pueblo.  Most of the entries in this film simply use the word  but there are other designations including .  I may buy the whole film some day.  It seems that dozens of people in Senecú are related to my ancestors.  The same film also includes entries from the mission at San Lorenzo del Real.  Both communities were about 9

Racial Classifications

Hello and Welcome Jose,

I know exactly how you feel.  I too was born and
raised in the US and have found that while I am here
in the US many people ask me where I am from and I say
I am from the US.  They do not accept that response,
when I say that I am Mexican they say, "OH, Yes. I see
it in you."
Now when I am in Mexico I am confronted with the same
from Mexican citizens.  They ask me where I am from
and do not accept my response that I am from
Zacatecas.  They tell me that I speak with an accent
and that I am not from Mexico.  I tell them that I was
born in the US and they say, "Si, claro, eres
Chicana."
I guess I can say like La India Maria, NO soy ni de
aqui ni de alla. Then i like to quote Selena
Quintanilla's father, Abraham, when he told her that
"When we are in the US we (Mexican-Americans) have to
be more American than the Americans to be accepted and
when we are in Mexico, we need to be more Mexican than
the Mexicans."

I don't know where I was going with that.
I do want

Tamales

Joseph, we must be the other family that eats raisin tamales, my mothers family is from Jalisco and my Zacatecas family thought they were crazy!

Raisin Tamales. . .I thought my mom was the only one that made these.

Boy could I eat a dozen by myself right now (but not all Raisin). I
guess I'd have to say that Pork with lots of "gordo" on the meat are my

I'd say that Tamales are my favorite food, then again I think I'd rather
have a big bowl of Menudo with lots of chopped onion, some oregano,
cilantro, and lemon juice and a tall pile of flour

Spanish Blood


He made me feel so guilty about my Spanish blood, what there is
of it.

When a child is born as a result of rape and the woman's family treats
the child as an outsider and poorly that is absolutely cruel. If anyone
needs to feel badly and ashamed it should be the rapist not the victims
or the children of the victims or the grandchildren of the victims or
the great grandchildren of the victims, etc..



The Yndio and The Black blood in me is mixed with my Spanish blood. Yes
the Spanish did terrible horrible unspeakable things to my people but
now my people are, "Los Yndios, Los Negros, Los Espanoles." I can't
survive if I hate part of myself. We have to realize that we are one
people and are strong and intelligent and proud and everything and as
much as any other peoples on this earth. No difference.



I love it when I find that certain of my lines continue to indicate
that they were Espanoles. Not because I'm more proud of the Espanol in
me that I am of the Yndio or Black, but

sharing information



Joseph, thank you for making me aware of Ellen Simms article.  I'm working on records from Tonila Jalisco and found that the Indio's and Mulato's live in Barrios around the town of Tonila but the only "natives" that seem to live in town belong to Espanol's. Her article explains all the barrios. The Tonila records are from the 1700's.  Being able to read articles like Miss  Simms and then doing the records really puts a face of the lives our ancestors lived.. There is a division between the haves and have-nots in the Espanol world too, not all were hacienda owners and slave owners, many were just plain working people trying to get by and survive.

 

Thank you again for printing Ellen Simms article.

The only Mojarra we have is Juana Maria Mojarra b.
Coculiten, Zac  m. 9 Mar 1751doc to Jsph Geronimo Sandoval in
Tlaltenango.  They had a daughter Antonia Secilia SANDOVAL Moxarra, yes
spelled with an 'x'.  Antonia was b. 8 Dec 1755 in Tlaltenango. 
Joseph was married again 27 Dec 1770 doc in Totatiche, Jalisco, so Juana Maria
probably died before 1770.  It looks like we are about 50 years further

Irma, yes, well said.  Oh, I forgot to say that my Spanish friend did allude to the fact that when the Moors and Jews were kicked out of Spain, Spain went to pot.  When I asked her how so, she said the Jews and Arabs were advanced civilizations who founded the universities in Spain, etc.  And a funny thing happened to her (well, she and I thought it funny at the time):  we went into a gift shop up here in Bremerton WA once to window shop their Peruvian things, and it was run by an obvious descendant of the Incas.  When he heard my friend's fancy Castilian accent, he really lit into her!  He started off with "Oh, so you are Espanola.  Do you know what your people did to mine?"  He proceeded to tell her off royally, listing all the injuries the conquistadores had heaped on his people.  She just said simply, "Well, I personally did not do those things", but he kept on and not only suggested that an apology from her people was in order, but that they should make restitution.  I guess he

 Hi, Irma,
 
Yes, my "friend" is the product of a Catholic girl's school in Pamplona.  So that tells you something.  Her brothers, who unlike girls in Spain at the time, received higher educations and are engineers, etc. and are more worldly, have gone to school and worked in Mexico.  She has never been there, yet when my husband would break out into a popular Mexican song, she started to sing along with him.  When  I asked her how she knew the song, she said that Mexican songs and movies have always been very popular in Spain.  Her husband, who is a Mestizo, and whose father, like mine, was also born in Jerez, Zac. is as prejudiced as she.  More so, I think, since she married him even though he was from a different race and country.  He probably wanted to married up; she really married down.  (She gave up a prominent social position in Spain to marry an American serviceman--maybe she felt adventurous).  He even told me he never wanted to marry a dark-skinned person.  Their kids look

"tarayata"

Joseph,
 
NO, my mother was not from South America.  She was a "manita" from New Mexico, part of the 500-year-old gene pool from Juarez-New Mexico.  (That is why I joined your Ciudad-Juarez group). They are a breed all their own, since they were isolated in the northern reaches of the Spanish Mexican empire. They spoke Spanish with their own 16th century dialect, etc, until my mother's generation, and besides having Piro-Manso-Tewa blood, they were thought to be Sephardic Jews in hiding.
 
All I can think of is that being of Basque descendancy from Zacatecas, my father's people may have used an old Basque word that was taken to South America by other Basque immigrants to other parts of the New World.  I will post messages to both the Peruvian website and the  Spanish Basque website and ask about the word "tarayata".  One strange thing---I have recently begun to get unsolicitated e-mails from the Basque Separatists in Spain.  I think they have trolled the internet and contacted everyone

Good information.

If you have ever read a list of the first settlers
that the Spanish sent, you'll see a cross section of
many Europeans, north Africans, and some Asians
(mostly Filipinos), that evenly mixed together and
with the local inhabitants (Indians).

We are a composite of many peoples.
