So how was your trip to SLC. .

Joseph and Ranchos members. My trip was very rewarding but very exhausting. I arrived on Sunday afternoon and was promptly informed that all dining establishments were closed on Sunday with the exception of the mall which was about 4 city blocks away.  I proceeded to walk to the mall so I could get to know the area, find the mall and find the family history library that evening. I found the library that evening then walked back to my hotel room to rest up for Monday morning.

Monday morning in order to maximize my time at the library I had the continental breakfast at the hotel then proceeded to the library. The first part of the morning I sat through a brief introductory video that told me most of what I already knew so I passed on the second video and proceeded downstairs to B1 which is the international floor. To those of you who know this process this is old news, but to those who have yet to go and are planning to

Hello, Jonathan,

 

When did your Olagues go to Texas,
and where in Texas
did they settle?  When did they go to Utah?

 

Thanks,

Hello,



I have been researching a line of the Olague
family, from Colotlan,

Jalisco.  That came to Texas,
and then to Utah.



thanks,

Ok, now I know I'm related to your husband. Unfortunately, I don't have any
of the names you've provided. However, I do have plenty of "De Alba", "Martin",
"Martines" in my lineage.

 

You may email me directly at:


 

Fraternally,

Garcia-Cervantes of Encarnacion de Diaz, Jalisco

Dear Emilie,

 

I also have roots in "La Chona". I don't have any of the names you
mentioned, but I do have other "Cervantes". These are:

Ana de \Cervantes\ Villasenor y de Alba who died 05 Jun 1629 in Santa Maria
de los Lagos, Encarnacion, Jalisco, Mexico.

and Ana's father, Francisco de \Cervantes\ Villasenor.

 

I'm sure that our ancestry lines will cross somewhere, as I've found that
just about every family from the Los Altos area is related.

 

Su Primo, (problamente)

Ken

Ed, besides the link from my previous post, there's another one that 
refers to a "ghost comunity" by the same name of Peña Blanca, near 
Valparaiso.

Which one could it be?

Ed, 

My guess is that it does exist still but not under a single 
ownership.  I found references to it in this website:

it was in existence as of the year 2000. . .go to "links" go to "2000
Mexican Census" to to "Zacatecas" (wait awhile as it might take a minute
to download) then go to "Valparaiso" then go to "Pena Blanca."


[thanks Jonathan]

My grandmother was born on the hacienda Pena Blanca. Does anyone have
any information on this hacienda and whether it exists in any form at
present? Per birth records the hacienda had to be close to Valparaiso,
Zacatecas. My guess is that it belonged to the Felguerez family but I
am not certain.

Thank you.
