I believe that my direct ancestor Antonio Madera (1660? - 1709) may have originated from "Puesto Maria De La Torre" which today is a rancho on the main road leading away from Monte Escobedo, Zacatecas, Mexico to Colotlan, Jalisco, Mexico.
Because I had found his grandson Blas Madera's brother "Francisco Madera" who was there. And also a "Luis Madera" who passed away at year 80 at Colotlan in 1731 who was from Puesto De Maria De La Torre. He may be a brother of Antonio Madera.
Antonio Madera appears in the records at Minillas, Mesquitic, Jalisco married to Maria Candelaria Angon (1655 - 1735). He also had bought two blocks of land at Tlatenango, Jalisco, Mexico in 1698. His grandson Blas Madera had migrated to Huejuquilla El Alto.
Does anyone have any information on Puesto de Maria De La Torre near Monte Escobedo, Zacatecas? It may be under jurisidiccion of Colotlan. And may help me find out if my direct ancestor Antonio Madera was originally from there and who his ancestors were.
