DNAgedcom Files Help

Hi,

I need to download a Chromosome Browser file from www.dnagedcom.com through the Family Tree DNA link, for the Nueva Galicia DNA project, which I did.

However, when I open it, there's nothing there except some headers. I thought there would be other info.

What should I be seeing, and what am I doing wrong? FYI, I use Firefox on a MacBook Pro.

Thanks,
Laura Gonzalez

Ancient Celts(Galicia, Spain), Great Zimbabwe(Africa), La Quemada (Huichols Zacatecas)

I by accident ran across pictures of the dwellings of "Great Zimbabwe" of Africa and was startled.

The architecture of using stone, towers and even dwellings is almost exactly similar to te "La Quemada" of Zacatecas and the house dwellings of walls made of slabs of stone stacked on top of each other and grass for roof. That is also similar to the Ancients Celts of Galician, Spain.

Could there be a three way conection? Great Zimbabwe of Africa, Ancient Celts of Galicia, Spain and Huichols of La Quemada of Zacatecas?

Introduction of Mia

Hello All - my name is Mia Montemayor and I've only been doing research for a few weeks now. Using family search, I was able to locate several records of my ancestors, including my great great grandparents Jose Aurelio Ponce born in Aguascalientes on March 26th 1886 and Valentina Ramirez born May 21st 1880. Jose Aurelio Ponce's parents were Francisco Ponce and Maria del Refugio Lopez from Aguascalientes. And, Francisco's parents were Nazario Ponce and Paula Castañeda. I recently located the birth of Nazario Ponce, so, I know his paternal grandparents are Gregorio Ponce and Gertrude Rangel and his maternal grandparents are Nepoceno Munoz and Guadalupe Diaz and I was hoping to find out as much as I can about those two couples. Thank you for allowing me to be part of the group.

Navarro, FamilyFinder results

Hola Armando y NuestrosRancheros,

I just got some FamilyFinder results and analyzed them using DIY Dodecad Wrapper / Globe13 as you suggested. Then I figured out the ethnic percentiles assuming Mexican and Spanish ancestry, but I wonder if the numbers I got would match your calculations. Could you please give me an ethnic percentile estimate based on the information below?
I have not traced back this line yet to the NR area, but other lines from my family tree do go back to Zacatecas (Mazapil and Gruñidora).

Thanks in advance.

Familia Machain en Santa Maria de los Lagos

Hola miembros de "Nuestros Ranchos"
He estado estudiando la familia Machain de Santa Maria de los Lagos y no
encuentro los padres de Nicolas Machain casado con Josefa González
alrededor de 1745. Sospecho
que este Nicolas Machain era nieto del primer Ignacio Machain que vino
de España en 1688 acompañando a Felipe de Otaduy; este Felipe fue Alcalde de
Santa Maria de los Lagos.

Gracias por la orientacion que me puedan dar.

Mario Gonzalez.

Dear Primos and friends:

If you missed the first four hours of Latino Americanos, please don't
miss the last two hours of the 6-hour documentary. It will air Tuesday,
October 1st. It is excellent.

Latino Americanos successfully gives a broad overview of our very
diverse population, sharing the emotional consequences experienced by
Latinos from different parts of the US. Important historic points were
made by the facts, which should help all Latinos/Hispanics to understand
one another better. To most non-Hispanics it will surely be an
eye-opener. A CD of Latino Americanos will be available, and materials
for the classroom have been developed.

Congratulations to John Valadez and the other documentarians. They
certainly did their homework!! They shared with us a more honest view of
the Latinos experience in the United States, showing us to be a part of
American history.

Historical information for southeast Laguna Chapala region, Jalisco

Does anyone know what books cover the colonial history of the municipalities of Jalisco that are near the southeast shoreline of Laguna Chapala? The municipalities that are of greatest interest to me are Mazamitla, Quitupan, and Valle de Juarez, Jalisco. Those municipalities are close to Sahuayo, and Cotija, Michoacan. My historical research of the area has come up dry. Not much more could be said for my genealogical research of the area, either. I also want to know what clans settled in those three Jalisco municipalities and how Valle de Juarez came to be. I have already read the Wikipedia article, but the level of detail was cursory at best. The links on the article were outdated.

If anyone knows of any resource that describes this area in detail, I would much appreciate it. Thanks!

The word "Vale" in Jalisco

I am interested in finding more information on the word "Vale" and its origin. I can remember hearing the word "vale" around the house. The word "vale" is used when referring to someone.
I do not want to confuse anyone with the way that the spanish use the word vale. Correct me if I'm wrong, for the spanish, it means something like "OK" or "de acuerdo". An example of its use in Jalisco would be: Qvo le Vale, Andale Vale, Mira Vale, Ese Vale. Some people use it more than others but I have noticed that people from Jalisco, Nayarit, Sinaloa seem to use it the most.
I also remember hearing the word used like the way we use it in Venezuelan Novelas. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070627102059AAseGtR

I can't imagine the word being a slang word. Your input greatly appreciated.

Introduction for Roberto Rosales

Hello,
my name is Roberto Rosales Villalpando, and I recently started doing genealogy
research. Growing up I was always curious about my family history. Sadly, I
wandered around with many questions, but no answers. Now, that I am going for a
biology major I have found a passion in genealogy, I do not know why, but
knowing who my ancestors were gives me a sense of belonging. Now I know more
about my family than my only great-grandmother still living.
My recent family ancestry was from the Huanusco,Zacatecas-Calvillo,Aguascalientes
region, and from Tlachichila,Nochistlan, Zacatecas.  To be more exact my father’s family is from
La Palma, Huanusco, Zacatecas and my mother is from a single family ranch on
the division of Zacatecas and Aguascalientes called La Calera (near Arroyo
Soto). I can trace my paternal grandparents and maternal grandfather's lineage
to el Arroyo de Soto, Calvillo, Aguascalientes multiple times on my family tree,
since I have the Serna surname all over my family tree. My parents are even
third cousins through the Serna's. Thanks to my maternal grandmother who came
from Tlachichila, Zacatecas I have different surnames I can add to my family
tree.
I also recently had my DNA tested through 23andme.
I have an extensive family tree, with a few brick walls along
the way, which I hope to overcome with the help of Nuestros Ranchos, and I look
forward on working with all of you.
Thank You

Family surnames: Rosales, Villalpando, Serna (de la Serna),Saldivar, Lopez, Olmos,Ruiz,Perez,Duran, Ruiz de Esparza,Jauregui,Ordorica, Hernandez,Lizalde,Gabay,Delgado,Martin de Carpo,Babadilla,Romo de Vibar,Estrada and many others.
