I offer this information primarily to Linda, who inquired about my foster
father's family from Tepatitlan. However, I have also included the family
from Arandas just in case anyone might have relatives attached to them!

I spoke with my foster sister today, and here is what I learned.
Severo Hurtado Guerra was born in 1902 in Tepatitlan. He had 4 brothers,
no sisters (my memories must have been of the sisters-in-law). His parents
names were Lucio Hurtado and Matiana Guerra. Severo came to the states
when he was 20 years old, and was the only who immigrated.

He married Maria Trinidad Suarez Cerda who was born in 1906 in
LaBarca. Her mother was Refugio Prajedas Suarez. They both came to
the states because of poverty (Refugio's husband had another family) in the late
1920's.

Their daughter (still living) married into a family from Arrandas,
Jalisco. The father's name was Salvador Rocha Barrajas and the mother's
name was Josefina Sainz Hernandez. Discussions with the family talk about
how Salvador inherited the family ranch/hacienda but lost it to gambling.
I met this family - all of them with the exception of one child had bright blue
eyes (there were 10 children).
