Hello All,
Several weeks ago, I posted a announcement about a weekly Hispanic/Mexican Research class, that I would be teaching. Several of you stated an interest in taking the class.
I just wanted to let you know, that the classes have started. They are being taught Sunday evenings at 7:15pm to 7:45pm (MST). Then from 8:00pm to 11:00 pm (MST) I am answering questions.
I also can teach a class, during the week if the need arises.
To register for the classes and to download the viewer software, goto the site: www.familyhistoryliveonline.com
If you have any problems, feel free to contact me at: jonathan@mexicanfhr.com
thanks,
Jonathan
Hi Jonathan
I have a problem in my search.
My grandmother left my grandfather in the year of around 1914 from Mexico City. My gramdparents were never married. My mother was the first born and she was born in Chih. Chih in 1905. My grandfather regestered her as his child and my grandmother. He was a philarmonico and single and named my mother Elena Mitre. He gave her his last name.
He was hired to play at the teatro lydico in Mexico City. This is where my problem begans. They moved there so that he could start working playing his violin.
There were 5 children born to them, my mother, Jesus , Alejandro, Manuel and Antonia. Manuel died when my aunt Antonia was around 1 year old. It was during the war and my grandfather didn't allow my grandmother to attend the burial, so I was told.
When she left my grandfather, my mother was around 10 years old and she never saw him again. My grandmother came to El Paso TX where her mother was waiting for her and the children.
My aunt

Mary,
Peralvillo is not a town or a municipality and therefore it would not be listed in the LDS catalogues. It is instead a "colonia" (neighborhood) in the Delegacion (Burrough) of Cuahtemoc. Below is a descrption of the colonia from the Delgacion Cuahtemoc website.
You can go to Guia Roji and look it up. Basically you would need to find the comisaria of the Federal District that kept vital records for that colonia and/or the name of the local neighborhood church which is probably listed in the FHL catalogue under Mexico City. Mexico City vital records, from what I understand, are very good and can be ordered online.
