Hello, everyone. I'd just like to introduce myself as a new member of this research group. I very recently started researching my family history, but I have been interested in it for years. I have a bit of information from what my grandparents can tell me and also one great-grandmother (103-105 years old), but most dates are missing as of yet. Anyway, I just thought I'd share what I have in the hopes that someone might see a connection to my family, however remote it might be, and we can maybe exchange it.
Thanks and wish me luck!

I too have Campos family in that area. I am researching two different Campos families, one I share with Arturo and another I share with Carol. Take a look at my files if you are interested.
Also, I came across this:

I do all my look ups on the http://www.familysearch.com/ website. The site only has information prior to 1900's. The site allows for ordering of films which have information after this date and also can give more information then the IGI or VRI extracted index contain.
I do not know Cuca Godina. But let me ask around and find out if she is a distant relative or something. Is there anyway for you to find out the names of her parents or grandparents?
Thanks,
Angie

Welcome to the group. There are a number of us in the group that share your surnames in the same geographic region so I am sure as your research progresses you will find a number of cousins here in the group. I for one have a great number of ancestors from Atolinga, Tlaltenango and Momax and share the Campos and Avila surnames. I also have a great deal of research compiled on the Haro family of Tlaltenango (one of the oldest Spanish families in the region).
Where are San Lorenzo, Los Sedano and El Plateado? What municipality do these ranchos belong to today?
It would be very helpful if you could at least organize your names by generation with approximate dates. Names repeat themselves over and over so it is difficult to discern one from another. I would suggest you download the PAF program, which is free and start entering your information into that program, which will then produce reports in standard formats with recognized numbering systems (i.e. Ahnentafel Charts
