I am taking the liberty to post this JOB ANNOUNCEMENT

The Health Initiative of the Americas (formerly California-Mexico Health
Initiative) is currently recruiting a Program Evaluator and Development

(This isn't really genenalogy - but it is a FAMILY story)
This past Saturday, my daughter dropped off her three oldest (ages 7, 5, and 2) for us to babysit. After playing outside for a while, the two older ones decided they wanted to watch a video - Disney's "Three Caballeros" (Donald Duck, Joe Carrioca, and ??? - I can't remember) - I haven't been able to figure out why they like this so - they have seen this a dozen times over the past 18 months. Anyway, after the movie, they wanted a snack, and while they were sitting around the table, Joey, the 7 yr old, started howling. I asked what all the noise was for - he said he was pretending to be a singing mariachi. This is what you must know about Joey's heritage: he is a combination of Irish, Lithuanian, Scots, English, Native American, Mexican ... y solo Dios sabe que mas. And yes, Joey has been exposed to mariachis in live performance, so he knew what he was trying to do.

I need the people who wanted to contact Susana to send me a reminder
email to: makas@nc.rr.com

I can't seem to remember who you were. Email me and I'll send Susana
your email address. Or you could contact her via the website. I'm not

I heard the Mendoza family comes from a long line of Castilian Nobility is this true? There were dukes, counts, lords, princes, etc. They also owned the Guadalajara Palace of Mendoza and descend from Fernando I? Is all this true.

Is there a collection of immigration/immigrant stories here on the NUESTROS RANCHOS page/site? (If so, how do I go about finding them?) Stories of how an ancestor or parent migrated to the U.S.; how and when did they travel?; why did they come to the U.S.?; how long did it take?; did they come alone or in a group?; where in the U.S. did they eventually settle?

Hello fellow Ranchos members...

I will be in Mexico City next Thursday through Sunday and am hoping to spend most of the day Friday at the Archivo General de la Nacion. I cannot promise that I will have time, but if someone has a specific document for which they have exact repository (i.e. collection name, folio number and page number, etc.) that they would like me to look up I will try to do my best.

I found a source that has Lope Ruiz de Esparza lineage going back to 1230 to James First of England. Im not sure if its correct or not. It said he is descended through the Beumonts near FRance to JAmes I.

Excellent Arturo ,

A friend of mine Arq. Jose Garza Carrillo has been there several times and has bought film there , he's promised to take me along the next time he goes . I will let you all know when I do .

I made a trip to my ancestor´s town. I claim it to be very fortunated because is the result of a bunch of diggins. I did found a hidden treasure: the getting a hug from my mother´s side of long time absence. This means, my fellows group, I just met two of my mother´s siblings and a bunch of cousins.

I tried to send you Susana's e-mail address at the e-mail address below, but your computer there won't allow messages through to you because you are not listed in the "Domino Directory".

Reply to me at my hotmail address.

I finally found some records for my Martin del Campo ancestors from
microfilms I ordered through the LDS church. In Film No. 1950892, Deaths
1941, in the civil register for the municipio of Guadalajara in Guadalajara,

Hoping someone might be able to help with the script in this document. I feel as if it is like Ojo de Agua
revisited! The below link is the document that I am pretty sure is the marriage document for the great grandparents of Julian Alviso. It is the top document, the marriage of Jose Ignacio Albiso and Juana Maria Gonzalez. Ignacio's race is described as Indio, but there is another word after Indio. I suspect it is either Savorio or Lavorio, but I am not sure. I am sorry but, I do not have the complete film, so I cannot provide other records for comparison. Could it possibly be the Indian tribe? Does anyone recognize the script or have a clue what this would mean? Thanks for any help!

Hello Charles and welcome to the group.

Regarding the inquisition documents held at Bancroft; I have viewed
part of the film that contains the petitions by Capitan Nicolas Flores
de la Torre (dated 27 Jul 1694) and Melchor Perez de la Torre. I got

Angie,
I am having trouble with my Microsoft program and cannot open any files. I
have not looked up any Godina yet. But my grandmother was Maria Godina, born
1899 in Saltillo. I am not positive of this birthplace. Her father was

I apologize if this question has appeared before. Recently, while reading
christening records, I have come across the word "tresalvo" right after the
name of the child being baptised. Can someone define it for me? Thanks

I have the history of the Carlos de Godoy from the 1800 that moved to
Jalisco, have several loose files of the Carlos de Godoy in their original
location Jerez, will like to contact with the person that did the research

Charles,

Was this a recent acquisition at the Bancroft? and you are correct in questioning whether something bad could have happened. So many horrible things happened as a result of the inquisition, not only in Mexico but throughout the world.
