Arturo Ramos & Mexico research

Wells Fargo has what they call an intercuenta account. You have an
account here where you deposit money and it is transfered to the
account in Mexico. I have used this method to send money to Mexico. The
exchange rate I got wasn't very good, but it was easy to do once it is
set up. Here is a link:

There are ways that people send money orders to Mexico which are
acceptable, I think they are called "jiros or giros postales" or
something like that.  I can provide you with the name of a friend of

Rita Hayworth

Rita Hayworth was not only an excellent and beautiful
actress, she had talent.  Any Hispanic that made it in
Hollywood in the '40s had be super beautiful and
talented. 

Regarding red hair...
Red hair runs in my wife's family; her
great---grandfather was also from Andalusia (Seville).
 Also, I've seen a number of families from Los Altos,
Jalisco, with red hair.  Like I said, the women from
Los Altos are very beautiful.  My wife gets real upset
whenever a gringo asks her if she is Spanish; she
always tells them "I'm Mexican, not Spanish"!

I'm surprised I could not find the word "osico" in my dictionary.  But as I recall, it is not really bad in itself.  Correct me if I am wrong, but it means "snout" or the mouth of an animal.  What makes it "bad" is who says it, to whom, why and how.   When the mother said it, it just surprised the students because

Rita Hayworth

Some members mentioned Rita Hayworth (Margarita
Cansino), and I decided to write about her.
She was the daughter of Eduardo Cansino. He was a
dancer born in Seville, Spain. In the Andalusia Region. He immigrated to America
(New York) where he married. Margarita was born in New York city. Years
later, the family moved to Tijuana, Mexico. Here, the father and Rita had a show
called "The Dancing Cansinos". It was here where Rita was discovered and the
rest is history .According with the family stories Eduardo was a "free spirit",
and his father didn't like his chosen profession.
 
On my part, My grand mother Maria de los Angeles
Cansino, was the daughter of Don Enrique Cansino. He was the brother of
Eduardo's father. My great grandfather emigrated from Malaga, in the Andalusia
region of Spain in 1880's. He relocated to Zacatecas, Mexico. He married my
great grandmother who was from Jerez, Zacatecas. Genealogy that now I'm
researching. My great grandfather left his whole

Ramos and Cardenas Familes

I have an ancestor named Pablo Alverto Morillo from Las Tetillas, Jerez, Zacatecas. He married my ancestress Juliana del Carmen Villavicencio but I don't know when. They were the parents of Maria Antonia Morillo and of Joseph Sostenes Morillo. Maria Antonia married one of my Saldivar ancestors. I'd like more info on the Morillos, such as who are HIS parents and where are they from?!!! Marge, who gets frustrated at the adobe walls she finds....grrrrr.:(

to this information because my 6th great-grand father was Bartholome

There are a number of Tuxpans... There is actually another Tuxpan in

There are a great number of RAMOS in the Totatiche area... most I 
think descendant from one of the Tlaxcaltec families that came in

What a wonderful trip you had. Thank you so much

About the records in La Inmaculada and Colotlan. I
think we should try to get them microfilm. According with the person in
charge of the archives in the church(La Inmaculada), many of them were in
reasonable condition (enough for be able to read them). Josie sent an

what I was doing, and requested permission to get access to the archives

Ojos, Dientes, Lengua, Cabeza

You are correct, Mary.  The reason you didn't found the word is
because the correct spelling is hocico.

And it is not a bad word in itself.  But it is an impolite and even
offensive expression to say to others because it implies that you're
dealing with animals.  

It is as impolite as asking someone before entering your house to
"límpiate las patas", because as we know only animals have "patas" and
humans have "pies".

These kind of expressions are acceptable only jockingly with close
friends or sometimes they reflect a mother's frustration with a
difficult child.

Question: Mexican army records from Zacatecas

Hello all,

Let me know if you can help. I recently learned that
my great-great grandfather served in the Mexican
cavalry in Zacatecas, perhaps around Tlaltenango,
although there might be some connection to Torreon,
Coahuila as well.

His name was Pedro Pineda, and he was probably born
between 1844 and 1864, as his son, my
great-grandfather Nicanor Pineda was born in 1884. Any
help would be appreciated...as of now, I don't really
know anything more about him, aside from the fact that
he had a wife named Pioquinta ____dosa. Also, does any
one know if there were any military engagements in
Zacatecas around this time that involved the cavalry?

Joseph,
 
You are so funny!  (Humorous, I mean).  However, I don't think
that cabezones, narizones, etc applies only to Tapatios.  My mother, who
was from New Mexico called me pendeja (stupid), cabezona (stubborn), etc. even
though I have very tiny features (many people think I am Asian, and I look like
my father who was tiny also).  My husband, on the other hand, is a typical
Tapatio (tall, skinny---6 feet and 165 pounds, Roman nosed, bald, white,
freckled, with a receded chin, and small ears that stick out).  So he is a
narizon, orejon, flaco, and his mother used to call him "demonio".  I asked
him if he had ever heard the term "hijo de V-chi" and he said no.  His
mother did call him tarugo, which he says means "knucklehead".  My father
used to tell me "callese el osico" even though he knew only animals have osicos,
we have bocas.

FYI: LDS update

Rosalinda I was asking my FHC director today about that price increase
going into effect on the 15th and she said that is correct but she
understood it was for films that were send out on or after the 15th so
even if you order today the new price will effect those films as well.
And a related comment about the ScanStone project (thanks Josie for
your article):



Subject: [FHCNET] Digitization - The Scanstone Project




   At the FGS convention, I believe, it was announced that the 
"Scanstone Project was underway.


     It is designed as hardware/software to improve the output  and
throughput of the Granite Mountain Records Vault to convert our
microfilm collection to digital images.


          Using it, a roll of microfilm is scanned in 6 minutes, then
rescanned in another 6 minutes.


     Then these are audited in about 4 minutes, then converted to 
digital images and compressed. This takes another 7-8 minutes. So a
roll of microfilm is completely converted within ½ hour.
