Hello everybody,
I am looking for the parents of Alvaro Carrilo from Teocaltiche , Jalisco he married Maria Alvarez de Sandi , daughter of Capitan Lorenzo Alvarez and Agustina de Viera ( velados ) March 4, 1585 in Lagos de Moreno , Jalisco .
Any and all info will be greatly appreciated .
Welester G. Alvarado and Arq. Jose Francisco Garza Carrillo
Welester,
I still don't know who the parents of Alvaro Carrillo were but I'm working on it. Here is some of the information I found so far:
On page 94 of his book "Fundadores de Nueva Galicia, Guadalajara, Tomo I" Guillermo Garmendia Leal states that Ana Alvarez de Sandi, wife of Hernan Flores de la Torre, was the daughter of Alvaro Carrillo and Maria Alvarez de Sandi. He also says that María Alvarez de Sandi was the daughter of Capt. Lorenzo Alvarez, "uno de los conquistadores deste reyno." I also found the record for the wedding of Capt. Lorenzo Alvarez and Agustina de Viera, which took place at the catholic church in Santa Maria de los Lagos March 4, 1585. You can find the record in LDS Film #0221879 Matrimonios 1583-1590 and 1605-1638 Santa María de los Lagos, Lagos de Moreno, Jalisco, México.
What puzzles me is that in his final will and testament, filed in Juchipila on 12 October 1645, Hernan Flores declared "Soy casado con Ana de Sandi, hija legitima de Alvaro Carrillo

Ruben,
That's what makes it so confusing. There is no consistency in the way
people's names were spelled in the XVI and XVII centuries. For example,
Fernando Flores de la Torre is referred to as Hernan or Hernando Flores de
la Torre in most documents, and his wife as Ana Carrillo de Sandi. I am
researching these families and recently discovered important documents about
them in the Archivo Historico del Estado de Jalisco. One of these
documents, which I will transcribe in the future, gives important
information about the early settlers of Santa Maria de los Lagos and the
surrounding area.
Bill

The evolution of Spanish from the original Latin is a fascinating topic.
Here is the first page of an interesting article describing the shift in
Spanish from the original Latin "f" to the modern-day silent "h."
http://www.jstor.org/pss/342575
Unfortunately, the link only exposes the first page of the scholarly
article, but it should help people understand why the "confusion." Those
Spanish speakers who know Italian or Portuguese will already be aware of
this evolutionary change, since in large part those languages have retained
the Latin "f," such as in filho (hijo) or farina (harina). When researching
in the transitional centuries, it is probably wise to search for both
possible spellings of names, such as Fernando/Hernan(do), or as this article
suggests, the possibility that the initial consonant was completely dropped
after the f-h shift.

Thank you, Karr. It is interesting to see how Spanish evolved into the
wonderful language it is today. I feel very lucky to have access to the
excellent records kept by the Catholic Church. I visit a local Family
History Center in my hometown every week, and have been through more than
fifty microfilms since I started five years ago. Without them and the
associated online databases I would not have been able to go this far.
Having said that, I must tell you that I find transcription and indexing
errors every day, some bigger than others. For example, I recently reported
an indexing problem to the LDS Library in SLC that I discovered while
visiting Aguascalientes last February. I hope they take action.
Unfortunately, there is no easy mechanism to report errors online. I am a
firm believer that all genealogical information found in books and/or the
internet must be verified. I used to provide navigation quality control
services for the major oil companies, and my motto always was

Hi Bill ,
It's me Welester , I have to agree on your outlook on books and the www I've found lots of mistakes and have also found that people take it for granted that it's been researched and or documented .
I've gone to book presentations here in Monterrey , Mexico and was mildly shocked ( I say mildly now because nothing surprises me anymore ) to browse through the books only to find mistakes blatant ones' at that .
I think we should use that as our motto :
TRUST , BUT VERIFY !
I like that .
Bill , anymore news on Alvaro ?

Lester,
I have been communicating directly with Arq. José Garza Carrillo. My last email included the following information about Alvaro Carrillo:
"Hace poco mas de un año estuve buscando documentos sobre tierras mercedadas en la Jurisdicción de Santa María de los Lagos, Jalisco. Encontré uno en Tierras y Aguas del cual extraje algunos datos que pienso publicar mas tarde. Por ahora puedo confirmarte que efectivamente se menciona a Alvaro Carrillo, a su hija Isabel de Sandi y al esposo de ésta Antonio Jiménez. En unos renglones dice lo siguiente:
"(...) Otra merced hecha por el Señor Doctor Gerónimo de Orosco, Presidente Gobernador y Capitán General que fué de este Reino, a Alvaro Carrillo, de tres caballerías de tierra, la una que fue de Juan Martín Portugués, la cual jamás labró, y la otra a cabezadas de caballerías de Pedro de Trejo, y la otra a cabezadas del dicho Alvaro Carrillo, tierras que compró de Pedro Hernández Cachan, su fecha en Guadalajara a veinte y dos de

Hello Erlinda,
San José de la Islas is in Zacatecas, today. But at certain times it
was considered part of Aguascalientes. They went back and forth. And
the parroquial boundaries also changed. Same is true of many regions
bordering the modern state of Aguascalientes. If I'm not mistaken,
that includes municipalidades like Jalpa, Juchipila, Ojocaliente,
Huejúcar. And earlier, all of the region was considered part of the
jurisdiction of Guadalajara. Also, areas of Aguascalientes were at
certain times part of Zacatecas, Jalisco, or Guadalajara.
On the parroquial level, San José de la Isla was of the
Diocesis of Zacatecas from 1862 to about 1899
Diocesis of Aguascalientes from 1899 to the present.
Diocesis of Guadalajara off and on since about 1850.
Early censuses (1792?) put it in Aguascalientes I think.
Politically, Aguascalientes was a provincia of Jalisco from 1621 to
about 1741, an Alcaldía Mayor in Nueva Galicia about 1742-1786,
1787-1811 a partido with Juchipila of Guadalajara
