Greetings,
I am new to the site and recently began researching my grandparents (Pedo Araiza and Elena Rodriguez), both who passed before I was born. Both migrated to the U.S. and ran a restaurant called the Texcoco Inn (Houston, TX). Found a couple of articles about them from the Sig Byrd archives (writer in Houston) but not much else of their families in Mexico.

Hello Everyone,
I was hoping to find out if anyone has any variation of the aforementioned names in their family history. I have had a challenging time finding information on my mother’s side of the family beyond GG grandfather Ladislao Ansures and a GGG grandfather Ciriaco Ansures. I believe there may be a connection to a sibling Simon, and i think they ultimately resided in Chihuahua. I find the names fascinating, though! Thank you for any information or suggestions!
Has anyone found the marriage of Jose Rafael Orozco/Orosco and Maria Guadalupe Vargas/Bargas? Most likely in San Miguel el Alto, 1810-1817.
Is the Rafael Orosco that married Maria Ignacia Martin in 1824 the same Rafael Orosco that married Maria Guadalupe Bargas? Ma Guadalupe died in 1822. Her son, Jose Bitor Orosco Bargas has paternal grandparents listed in his baptismal record as:
Jose Alejo( Bargas) y Orozco and Maria de San Juan Hernandez
The Rafael Orozco/Maria Ignacia Martin line seems to be well researched, but I have not come across mention of a Ignacia being a second wife.
Any confirmation that I am coming to the correct conclusion that these is the same Rafael Orozco would appreciated.
Greetings to all,
I am fairly new to genealogical research, but I am trying to establish solid proof a one particular line going back 15 generations. I have been able to establish many of the generations, but I am having some trouble with a few. I have searched this site (and others) and have read many of the forums on this site, which offered great help, but have not been able to locate documentation for some generations. I only included marriage dates for the moment, but can include other information, if needed. I will follow with the generations I am trying to link and find documentation for. I also realize that some names may vary as individuals sometimes shortened or used a variation of their surnames. Below is the lineage starting with myself:
Is there a way to search this work online?
Does anyone know how to contact Javier R. Avitia? He has a database of thousands of individuals from Canelas, Durango, Mexico. I mention this here because I believe a number of you do research in Durango. I have found his posts online , but no way of contacting him. The post are 17-25 years old. He did live in Los Angeles. I have made attempts to find him with no luck. He definitely has lines I am researching. Please let me know how to contact him or his relations or ask him to contact me. Thanks. celeste@agabra.com
I have hit a wall in my Najar line with Casimiro Najar Lujano. He was born ~1810 and married Maria Petra Rodrigues in 1830 in Arandas. His parents are Jose Angel Najar and Maria Nieves Lujano. This is where I stop. Any help from "cousins" or suggestions on where to look would be appreciated. Thanks.
What does this word mean in this context?
I have found a Nieves Ledesma marrying Jesus Marquez(f.Felipe Marquez/mom Susana Martin) in 1840 and having a child with Jose Ana Marquez in 1841, both in San Miguel el Alto. I believe they are part of Jose Joaquin Gutierrez de Laris(b~1689)/Cecilia Martin line. Is there anyway I can confirm this is the same man? The only time Nieves is listed with Jesus and not Jose Ana is the marriage and I can find no marriage for Nieves and Jose Ana.
Im curious if anyone knew about this. AGN seems to be digitizing their documents. The search stinks but better than nothing!
