This weekend I was reading a reprint of the Conquest of California and New Mexico, by
James Madison Cutts nephew of Dolly Madison.
He has a page on the Mixed races of Mexico that I thought was very interesing and decided to share.

Hi,
I apologize for posting my last message on "Jewish History" in Jalisco in
the research forum. I guess I should have posted it in this forum.

Last night my husband and I were on youtube and we did a search for Nochistlan. I discovered there were lots of videos about Nochis. One video was called "Recorriedo Nochistlan" and someone actually drove around Nochis with a video camera in their hand driving up and down streets that were very familiar to me. In another video there were people running around with white powder on their faces (harina and pinole) which of course some of you may know is a very old tradicion called el "Papaqui del Guerito San Sebastian." There are videos which depict other traditions like the "La Coleadera" in Las Animas which is an event I have attended many times, and the Sunday night serenatas in the jardin in Nochistlan.
Hi, all:
I had received an LDS microfilm No. 238073 of the Jesus Parish Records in
Guadalajara, Jalisco for 1876-1883. I had ordered it to look for the
baptism record for my great-grandmother Francisca Cabral, because in her

The past week has been one huge nightmare... I changed ISP last Friday Oct 12nd, and have not been able to access the Internet since that day... after hours/days on the phone with tech support, the bottom line is my 6 y/o computer has been put to rest, and I'm now typing on my new one...

I have read several postings, but I'm new to requesting help. The Bustamante line, from Aguascalientes is the root I am researching. Cruz Bustamante B. 4-26-1882 is my Great Great Grandfather. I am having trouble finding much more than his wife and two children.

If anyone is interested in following Don Juan Lopes de Elisalde's line in the 1500's in Tolosa these are the films you'll be interested in. I hope to follow his line someday. I really want to look for Don Juan's parents. I only included the films that would extend his genelogy.
It looks like most Rubios connect back to these guys in la Nueva Galicia. I have several rubios about 5 times. My line ends at Don Diego Rubio de Monrroy of Guadalajara. I only have the marriage date of the IGI.
Aunque definitivamente no soy un experto me pongo a sus ordenes para acompañarlos, con todos los recursos que esten a mi alcance, en este tan ambicioso proyecto que es un justo reconocimiento a la labor que ustedes desarrollan al frente del grupo. Enhorabuena y felicidades para todos ustedes.

Ronnie,
I found your message interesting. I have been searching for my Reynoso's for many years. My grandfather, Francisco Reynoso o Renteria used to say that the family records could be found in Jalisco. He never talked much about the family in Mexico and when he did he liked to mix truth with untruth. One never knew what could be believed. I have had to find original source records and prove what I believed to be correct. More fun!
Esther asked how much room the software takes...
FamilySearch Indexing takes up about 20-30 MBs.
There have been a lot of questions about indexing, and I doubt that all can be addressed in the mailing list. If you want to learn more you can visit http://www.familysearchindexing.org and click the "Help" tab at the top of the screen. These tutorials will explain a lot about the program in general. Specific instructions will be made available when your pilot project begins. I would recommend that everyone go through lessons 1, 3 & 4 to get a basic understanding of how the program works.
Dear Nuestros Ranchos Members:
This afternoon, Joseph, Mickey and I had a conference call with Ruth Schirmacher and Lynn Turner of the Family History Library in Salt Lake City where they proposed that Nuestros Ranchos serve as the pilot group to use Family Search's new digital online indexing technology to index Latin American records.
Thanks Joseph for recording the conversation, I am such an auditory learner.
I have some questions about being involved as an indexer (not an
arbitrator..lol).
Questions:
1) Where would we get the census and notary records that are being asked for
