TEST SITE - DO NOT USE - Development only

okay I've put up a bunch of pages for Ranchos in Jalisco, Zacatecas and
one for Aguascalientes

I've also found this website that has a search engine for a few other
pages that i don't have time to link to just yet.

Hi all,
I compiled a list of all the Mexican films that are on indefinite 
hold at my local Family History Center.  I can do lookups for any of 
you as long as you can give me the date and names you are interested 
in.  At a minimum, I would need a month and year.
For Joseph:  I tried to place the file in the Ranchos 2 website, but 
I got an error message.  That's why I ended up placing it here in my 
folder.

Joseph,

I would try the following book by Lyman d. Platt: "Mexico: guia general:
divisiones eclesiasticas".  It may give you some ideas.

Thanks,
Jonathan

I have a very simple request if we each do our own small part. Or a
large job if I have to do it. I just worked on helping someone in the
group. but with over 50 members I can easily forget which profiles are
which names and thereby not know how to link the genealogies (listed
under the persons name to the person subscribed under a different profile.

here is what I'd like each of you to do:

1) go to the files area

2) if your genealogy is on this page go to the far right of your name
and click on the word "edit"

3) when the window opens in the space called "Folder name" put your
email address next to your name.

4) click "save changes"

5) you're done

look at it and it should look like my folder or something similar to this:

Ranchos 2 is up and running. If you are logged on and can access the
files and links area of the original Ranchos group you should be able to
seemlessly go to the Ranchos 2 "file" area by clicking on the "Ranchos2"
link in the links area of the original Ranchos group.

If any of you can't access Ranchos2 via this link well maybe I forgot or
"couldn't" add you email address to the Ranchos2 membership list. If
this is the case email me directly (makas@...) and we'll talk
about it.

thanks,

joseph
makas@...

I have a suggestion and its not a big deal for now if you don't follow it.

I'd prefer any genealogies submitted in the future to be in the
genealogy report format rather than the chart format.

my reasons:

1) the charts eat up space compared to the reports

2) you can get so much more info in the reports

3) the reports can be sent in using .rtf format

thanks,

joseph

not sure this is going to shed any light on your question but at least its related.

from this website this is what is said:

Hello Alice, Joseph and others,

Thank you for your encouraging words. After rereading what I posted
Saturday, I must have been extra stressed out that day. No, civil
marriage certificates from San Francisco do not list parents - that
would have been too easy!

My father, now deceased, had passed down a rather fantastic family
story about his father's side, about two elder brothers getting
together to disinherit a much younger brother and then seeing to it
that important records were destroyed...and then in turn the youngest
brother disinherited his own son (my grandfather).

Very reluctantly, I'm now beginning to believe that this 'fantastic
family story' might be based on fact. Why reluctantly? Because to
most genealogists family stories are just that, stories, and inherently
suspect until proven to be factual. To his dying day my father didn't
believe me when I told him that the tiny, dainty little old lady (on
his maternal side) in the family photograph, the

Hello Steve,

I am so impressed with how you're going about your research.  I am 
basically following the same standard of confirming everything off 
the actual microfilm.  If I find someone on the IGI, I do add them 
to my database and reference the IGI, but will eventually go to the 
microfilm and get a print.  I didn't find a link between us, but it 
could be we will find one later as we get further back.  I only wish 
I had started my research when I was your age or that I had more 
free time to visit my local FHC. By the way, I live in Elk Grove, CA 
(a suburb of Sacramento).

surprising amount of detail on this map. . .its a bit crude and probably
out of scale but it could be helpful. . .maybe.

All right, here's another problem, actually several questions, I'm
putting in the hands of this knowledgeable group:

Over the years we've tried to find my paternal grandfather's baptismal
record, going through many films of Bautismos in El Sagrario. I know
now where and when he was born, as eventually his civil birth record
was found under just his mother's name. His name was Leon CALVILLO
Ponce, natural son of Jose Guillermo CALVILLO Ursua and Maria Placida
PONCE Medina. (His parents, my great-grandparents, were eventually
married through the Church, in 1875.)

But here's my question: He should have been baptized sometime in April
1869. Although we couldn't find him in any of the relevant books, we
did come across a mystifying reference to a 'libro secreto #2' wherein
(I assume) were written the entries of natural or illegitimate
children [Film #299489, Bautismos del Sagrario 1868-1870]. If I were
to find this libro secreto #2, maybe it would list my

Thanks to members of this group who sent me notes about Autlan de la
grana. Finally we know what happened to it - nothing! The name was
changed, that's all. It's been there all along, in fact, since the 7th
century.

My gr-grandparents' notebook is from about 1870 to 1884. I vaguely
remember my abuelita mentioning the Cristero wars.

For sgapodaca: The only APODACA surnames I have in my database are

1) Don Andres APODACA, c. 1780.

He was padrino, with Maria Antonia GARSIA, to her granddaughter, Maria
Marsela, hija legitima de Juan Jose SERRANO y Maria Simona RADILLO
Garsia in Feb. 1822, in Autlan. Maria Antonia GARSIA was the first
wife of Joseph RADILLO-GUSMAN. (Joseph RADILLO-GUSMAN I believe was my
gr3 grandfather, with his second wife, but I can't prove it yet.)

Don Andres APODACA was also padrino, with the same Maria Simona
RADILLO, above, to Jose Valerio, hijo legitimo de Jose Maria GARSIA y
Felipa QUIÑONES in Feb 1823.

2) Julia APODACA, c. 1840, with
