I wanted to introduce myself to the forum.  I'm Raymundo Muñoz from Brownsville, Texas.  I've been researching (since COVID lockdown) about my fathers paternal side of the family since i know very little from about them and am wanting to know more since that's the last name I carry.

A few things that I know about my grandfather is that he originated in Teocaltiche, Jalisco and then moved to Matamoros area (supposedly fleeing Jalisco for beating up the son of his boss) where he married my grandmother and then immigrated to Huntsville, Texas.  If you can see the attachment, it is confirmed (by my father) that his Pablo Muñoz and Virginia de Anda Quesada.  If anyone can help confirm that if I am in the right path and lastly if anyone has any information on Jose Maria Muñoz and his spouse Pascuala Gutierrez.

Thank you,

Raymundo

Hi, I am fairly new to this forum so please excuse me if I do something wrong. 

I have several ancestors from the Celaya area, and I am wondering if anyone has information about the parents of Pedro Buitrón Mujica AKA Pedro Vallejo born c.1700 in Celaya and married to Catarina Tena Padilla in 01/FEB/1736 in Celaya. 
I am aware he is a "clandestine" son of Francisco Buitrón Mujica, and from the glances I was able to find as previews from "Los Tena de Celaya" by Rafael Nieto y Cortadellas, it looks like his mother might be Manuela Vallejo García (Daugther of Diego Vallejo Torres and Juana García Diosdado), but I haven't been able to find documentation to confirm this, so any help will be greatly appreciated.

I have read in "Retoños de España..." and in this forum that Mr. hfaizcorbe, you are and expert in the region so I would love to know if you have any information regarding this family. 

Thank you in advance,

Hello, everyone. I’m new to the group and looking forward to collaborating with all of you. I have been working on my family tree on and off for about 10 years. 

I have hit a wall on my paternal line and am hoping for guidance and suggestions on how to move my research forward. I cannot locate birth records or parents of Matias Lepe (possibly y Rodriguez?) born around 1698 in Cocula, Jalisco and married to Bernardina Espinoza. I cannot locate her birth records either. 

I also need help tracing my Santana (Santa Ana) ancestors past Joseph Antonio Santana born about 1650 in Sayula, Jalisco and married to Juana Maria Lopez Bueso y Guerrero de Ocon. 

Any help you are able to provide on these two ancestors is greatly appreciated!

Dear Members,

I posted this in the general forum topic by accident, but it really should be in the research section. I also started a new topic because the old one was from 2009.

Hello,

I'm researching my family tree in Leon, Guanajuato. I'm trying to find the name of the town that my ancestor, Jose Epifanio Monjaras, was born in. In the attached Baptism record, the town looks like it says Caraeol, but I'm not having any luck finding that town or anything similar. The Baptism was in Leon, so the town must be near. Parents names are Juan Monjaras and Andrea Ramires. See attached image.

Appreciate any help!

Thank you,

Stephanie

Hola prim@s,

Does anyone have any information on the Aguayo's of Nochistlan. In particular Jose Maria Aguayo born abt. 1815 - deceased abt 1838. I'm trying to find his parents.

My grandfather was Jose' Socorro Luevano de Marinez. He was given as an award of the church which I believe was Hacienda de Cieneguilla, in Aguascalientes, Aguascalientes, Mexico at a young age for priesthood training. I am trying to confirm that this was actually a church that trained young people for entry into the priesthood. I actually found the remains of the church/seminary in a Google search. My grandfather was born in Paso de Sotos, Jalisco, Mexico on 12 May 1892 which was recorded in the church, Teocaltiche, Jalisco, Mexico, registry on 17 May 1892. His parents were Tiburcio Luevano and Manuela Martinez. He was then baptized on 18 May 1892 in the church, La Santisima Trinidad, in Villa Hidalgo, Jalisco, Mexico, where his name was recorded as Jose del Socorro Luebano. He then left the church in about 1914, entering the United States, and was married to Cecilia Montoya on 13 November 1915, in Harris County, Texas, United States. This information was validated by his children and documented in the sources in FamilySearch. He told his children of his place of birth and that he was awarded to the church at a young age for priesthood training.
