Hi everyone,
I am new here so bear with me if I ask to many questions... I joined the group about 2 weeks ago and put out 4 surnames that I am researching... and I want to thank those that answered me... I am reading the information that you are sending among yourself's and getting a general idea how the group works...

I am researching in and around Fresnillo in Zacatecas, the surnames that I am very interested in right now, are:
Arroyo----------- (my Grandmother's father)
Hernandez----- (my Grandmother's mothers maiden name)

What do I need to do or where can I go to find these surnames... or is there anyone in the group that has any surnames of Arroyo or Hernandez... I have the names of their spouses...which may led us to a family link.

Thanks

Marty

Welcome again Marty,

Just a quick note about how the group works. There are three lists.
Research, General, and Announce.

research@nuestrosranchos.org is for talking about our target area
(Jalisco, Zacatecas, and/or Aguascalientes) research. So that one would
be a good one for your message [Notice I changed it over from "general"
where you posted it to the research list].

general@nuestrosranchos.org is for general genealogy talk that is not
necessarily within our target area but I'm not going to go so far as to
say that it is for just a continuous and total discussion outside our
area. I would eventually like discussion outside our area to be taken to
private email but you'll have to use your own judgment as to when that
is appropriate. The recent discussion about the Zaldivar's is a good
example. Welester had a gut feeling that his Zaldivar's were from
Zacatecas and he and Esther seem to have worked toward the goal of
bringing that line back from Nuevo Leon to Zacatecas
