part of the parrish of Fresnillo...

Victor:

Was your grandfather's mother's last name Ayala?  If so this may be a 
good start for your search from the IGI database.  You can try 
looking up one of these baptismal records and see if the grandparent 
names match.  No luck on finding Rancho San Justo, but the resource 
you are referencing is available online:

Introduction of new member

Hi Ranchos Group Members,

I am Michael Gonzales and have a strong interest in the Gonzales, 
Ayala, Calleros and Lucero lines in Zacatecas, Mexico on my
father's side and the Ayala, Zamora, Ortiz and Moreno lines in 
Michoacan, Mexico on my mother's side.  I was born in California
and 
am a transplant to Texas.  Most of my family is still in California, 
up and down the coast.

I mainly use the LDS Family History Centers and the INS non-
statistical records for Mexican border crossings in the 1912-20 
timeframes.  I also us the US Census records for family 
identifications in the 1920-30 period.

I am trying to find my paternal grandfather's birth or baptismal 
records (Ramon Gonzales-31 August 1891).  I have birth registrations 
for two of his brothers (Francisco and Julian) who were born in 
Rancho San Justo, Zacatecas, Mex, but nothing yet on my Paternal 
grandfather, Ramon.  I have not yet tried to look up records on my 
great grandfather Victor Gonzales or my great grandmother

Good Luck with Rita

Emilie,

Thanks for your concern.  I do live in Mexico's east coast near the
Texas border but about 100 miles inland from the Gulf.  Although we're
not in Rita's direct path we're watching closely where it is going.  I
too have some relatives in Houston who have had to evacuate to safer
places.  Hopefully there won't be any loss of human lives this time.

Saludos!

Questions for George Ryskamp

Joseph,
 
I think your question on scholarly research is excellent! I would
love to see a simple directory with that type of information.
By the way, along these lines, I have an acquaintance (via Internet
only) in Jaliso who is both a genealogist and is involved in
scholarly research. He is a historian in Encarnacion de Diaz,
Jalisco, and is very knowledgeable on area history in general.
 I haven't written to him in AGES (perhaps he's not very happy
with me for not writing!) You may have already spoken with him,
but just in case, I'll forward his contact information.  

His name is Rodolfo Humberto Hernandez and he can be found at:
  rodolfohdzch@... .

I would venture to say Mr. Ryskamp would comment that notarial
records are some of the most valuable yet underused resources.
I went to a workshop he presented once and he was quite convincing
about their merit. Unfortunately, I, myself, have never used
them.  But I've seen many and I know that they are a wealth of
information - the

Questions for George Ryskamp



I'm going to DC on the 24 for the Hispanic Family History Symposium.
I'm going to record Mr. Ryskamp and at least one other Archivist for my
Podcast project (http://NuestrosRanchos.net). Its possible that I might
interview him that day. . .thanks to Mickey Garcia who asked him if he
would let me interview him (thanks Mickey).



Can you all think of any other questions. . .so far here are my
questions with 3 of yours:



Members of the Ranchos group were interested in these first three
questions:

Are there any school or other institution projects to motivate children to get interested in family 
history and research?

Are there are any kind of statistics or failure/success rates for
genealogy researchers in terms of a generation count?  In other words,
what can the average genealogist realistically expect to find from
available sources?

Are you taking on new clients and what are your rates?


My questions:

When using FHC's for research the temptation is to stay with baptism, birth

Long Term Data Storage



What does the following have to do with Latino and Native American
Genealogy and History? Well everything. It is the goal of this project
to archive and store various audio files of information on this topic
for the long term. I for one have wondered about this very subject
several times and am glad NARA is taking the bull by the horns to the
tune of $308 million. Let's hope for a solution we can realistically
use.



following the article is a link to an interview of Alex Kosiorek by
Doug Kaye of IT Conversations on the subject of how best to burn CD's
for long term information storage. Very interesting and even though it
is one year old I think the info is still applicable today.

Guadarrama

Interesting last name.  The following is for your
information:

HISTORIA DE GUADARRAMA 
El topónimo de Guadarrama (wadi l-ramal, río de arena)
procede de la lengua árabe, aludiendo su nombre al
río. Ahora bien, su origen como población es
cristiano, fue fundada por Alfonso X el Sabio en el
año 1268. 

LA SIERRA DE GUADARRAMA COMO ESPACIO HISTÓRICO. 
Las primeras alusiones históricas alrededor del
espacio que hoy conocemos como Sierra de Guadarrama,
se refieren a las diversas vías de comunicación que
facilitan el paso al Norte de la Península Ibérica.
La dominación romana de España (Hispania) dejó
constancia de su presencia en esta zona, con la
antigua vía XXIV del Itinerario Antonio, de Titulcia a
Segovia, que pasaba por el Puerto de la Fuenfría.

Downloads

Hey, Joseph,

 

I think I know now what was wrong on my new computer before.  It seems
there are a lot of things in it that are hiding, such as Windows Media Player
10.  When I clicked on the MP3 listed on your last message about maps,
a window popped up saying Welcome to Windows Media Player 10 and it led me
to other pop ups to configure it.  Before, when I tried to view videos,
nothing would happen.  I was then able to download that map of Jalisco you
had sent earlier, and I saved it somewhere.  I tried to print it, but
nothing happened.  Is it possible to print it?  Or can one only save
it to view on the computer?  I guess copyrights would prevent printing it
out?

 

Thanks,
