Joseph,
You can delete my folder.  I need to post my updates and can do it by 
creating a new folder in Ranchos2.

Time for us to rejoice. Another family that was lost to each other for
several generations has found itself again. I hope others will share
the happiness of these families for having found each other again.
Congratulations.

Downloading Problem:Tlaltenango Census Posted in Ranchos2

Esperanza,
 
I have a very slow dial-up since I can't afford DSL or cable, but I was
able to download it and I printed it out (29 pages).  I noticed that when I
clicked to open the file, it seemed to do nothing for a long time, then I
noticed the movement of the indicator that tells you that a page is
downloading.  Then I noticed the size of the file.  I now know that
any file that has thousands of KiloBytes is going to take anywhere from 15
minutes to over an hour to open up.  It took over an hour to open up that
file.  I just left the computer running and went and took a shower then had
breakfast, etc. then I finally saw the first page of the file on the
screen.  With my slow dial-up connection, I have learned that I must just
be patient and wait for the computer to open up such huge files, and that there
is nothing wrong with the computer or the connection, except that it is SOOOO
SLOOOOW.

OK.  I understand now.  Not an easy knot to untie!

The other interesting finding are your 12/12 matches.  We have to wait
for the 25 marker results to see if those hold up.

Downloading Problem:Tlaltenango Census Posted in Ranchos2

Joseph,
 
You are correct that it takes time to download. I have DSL and not dial up but it still took a considerable amount of time to download. Once downloaded I saved it to a file and then copied onto disk and then remove it off my hard drive as it takes too much memory.

Yes, Victor I realize that the name Aranzazu is Basque, but since 
this was the name of the adoptive father or Joseph Ramon, it is not 
necessarily my real lineage.  To further complicate that issue, his 
adoptive grandfather was an illegitimate child and only took the name 
Aranzazu, because apparently that is where he was born (Real de

Arturo,

You have to follow all the leads in search of the answers you are
looking for.  One quick observation regarding your message:  Aranzazu
is most definitely a Basque surname and while everything is possible,
the Basque population is predominatly R1b, with just a mere 2.1%
belonging to E3b, so this is something to consider.

Victor:

This is very insightful and valuable feedback.  I totally agree with 
you that one should not jump to any conclusions on this, especially 
with this haplogroup which seems to be so widely spread and undefined 
in terms of actual "ethnic" identity.

I suppose that the most valuable piece of news from this is that it 
gives me some idea as to the genotype of my Joseph Ramon Aranzazu, 
who as "expuesto" and taken in by a family.  The reason why I did 
this DNA test to begin with was to hopefully find someone with a 
direct lineage to his adoptive Aranzazu family and see if perhaps he 
was in fact an illegitimate child.

This definitely keeps that door open, as it is definite that this 
lineage is of Iberian origin (as was the adoptive father).

Arturo,

Now we have another thing in common: E3b.  To compare your numbers
with mine and with other E3b individuals go to this link
http://www.familytreedna.com/public/freemanDNAProject

I noticed that you quoted a thread from a while back where we discuss
DNA testing and ethnicity.  I'm sure you're not the kind of person to
draw hasty conclusions and that is good because E3b is not a
haplogroup without controversy.  Misconceptions abound, particularly
that one created by applying the wrong sematics to the field of
genetics.  What I mean is the misuse of the word "semitic" as an
adjective applicable to haplogroups E3b and others. 

This has been the source of much debate in circles dedicated to
discussions about population genetics and genealogy.  It is true that
a case can be made for a Sephardic ancestry, but just as easily a case
can be made also for a Moorish, Berber,  Phoenician, Gypsy, Roman,
Macedonian, Greek, etc.  ancestry, because this haplogroup can be
found in so many

Dia de los Muertos

Thanks for sharing.  I've also heard some places in
Mexico they also have contests on the best alter in
the cemetery.  I don't think I would be afraid going
into the graveyard at night with a busload of people
either, if I ran into a spirit I probably would have
to say, hey I've hit a brick wall in my genealogy do
you know any info on the matter..haha.  Good topic for
Halloween of course.
