Mexico Trip Report Part I

I think the Lulu solution may work for him on upcoming projects, except for the fact that 
shipping the books to Mexico is very cost prohibitive and would therefore make it a bit 
less viable than it would for someone looking to distribute them in the United States... i.e. 
his market in Mexico is not going to go online to order books from the U.S. that will be 
delivered by the Mexican postal system.

The problem that he has with the reprinting of his HIstoria de Totatiche is that he does not 
have an electronic manuscript.  He typed out the whole book and the State of Jalisco's 
Ministry fo Culture transcribed, edited it and had it typeset for printing.  They will now not 
share with him those materials as they consider them their property, though they have 
given him permission to reprint the material on his own.  So basically he is left with having 
the book photographed and reprinted from those photographs if I understand him 
correctly.

I am looking at publishing a historical

I just got back from two and a half weeks in Mexico.

Though I did not spend them in "working" on genealogy or historical 
research, as I did have the need to spend time with my family and 
decompress at the beach for some days, I did get a fair amount of 
work done.

I arrived in Guadalajara, Jalisco on Dec. 17.  I met up with my 
brothers and my younger brother's Japanese host-mother to celebrate 
our birthdays in Tlaquepaque with mariachis.  The singer had lived in 
Japan for three years and sang to my brother's Japanese host mother 
in Japanese.

The next day I attempted to visit the Archivos Publicos del Estado de 
Jalisco.  They were closed early because of staff shortages due to 
the holidays.

I headed to Villa Guerrero, Jalisco on Dec. 19 (where my parents have 
now built a beautiful house on the edge of town where they plan to 
live half-time).  The next day, we travelled to Bolanos (a mining 
town dating to circa 1550) at the bottom of the canyon

The praying of the Tuesdays of St. Anthony is a very old custom and is
still very popular.  There are many excellent sources on internet but the
ones that seem to provide both a history and the prayers themselves are:

My de la Torres were also from the Jerez area. My ancestress Doña Juana de la Torre was married to Miguel Olague in the 1600s. We're probably related. Cool! Marge:)

Microfilming La Inmaculada

Hi Susana!    
 
This is strange........When I met her at the Hispanic
Conference in SLC in Oct 2003, we discussed some of the archives in Mexico that
had not been microfilmed ........that was when she gave me her business
card.    
I am sure she will forward your e-mail to the
proper department and perhaps that will get the ball rolling.

On my part,
My grand mother Maria de los Angeles Cansino, was the daughter of Don
Enrique Cansino. He was the brother of Eduardo's father. My great
grandfather emigrated from Malaga, in the Andalusia region of Spain in
1880's. He relocated to Zacatecas, Mexico. He married my great grandmother
who was from Jerez, Zacatecas. Genealogy that now I'm researching. My great
grandfather left his whole family back in Spain.
