Joseph,
do I need to be a member to get into the IGI search at Family Search?  I
am looking for the birth of my Dad, or the marriage of my grandparents. 
But I am only able to get into the

Garcia/Saens

Hello Rancho group.
As I starded to read or trying to read my copies that I brought from Las
Cruces University, I ran into a "Limpa de Sangre" from Hidalgo del
Parral.  It cought my attention becouse it mentions  the surnames of
Garcia and de Olguin, both are in my line but at this moment I'm not
sure that it is my family but went ahead and search it any way.

My Olguins and Garcia are in the 1800's  and this is in 1764 and
earlier.  I will mention these names so that someone that is looking for
them might be able to contect me.

San Jose del Parral ..... January 28, 1764
Tirso Jose Garcia ....
farther ... Nicolas Garcia
mother ... Anna Simona Saens
padrino ... Francisco Saens

This is a "Limpa de Sangre" document, and I decided to search Nicolas
Garcia  and here is what I found.

Nicolas Garcia de Bustamonte  married Anna Simona Saens on....
November 11, 1759  in San Jose del Parral

Parents to Nicolas  Garcia are....
Franco. Garcia de Bustamonte and Anna Maria Marcano

Parents to

Maria Francisca Marquez

Hey Carol,

Let me know if you find out who the parents are for Maria Francisca 
Marquez. It is probably listed on her marriage to Juan Antonio De 
Casas.  I am interested in knowing if she is part of the Marquez 
family that I am researching.

Thanks,
Angie


IGI Searching and Microfishe Tips

I love to use the IGI. 

I look for Children by using the Parents' Index.  I will use the 
father's name and his wife's and then switch the order and use the 
mother's name and her husband's.  This can bring good results.  The 
IGI only has two generations but if you can order the film from which 
it was extracted, you can gain more information.

Hopefully you will find a child/or children and by using the date of 
the first born, you can go back a year and try for a marriage date. 

Usually the marriage names are more complete and with these, either 
bride or groom or both, you can try for their birth dates and 
places and their parents' names.  Again try and get the film because 
although the IGI seems to show everyone could be related, they may 
not be!   

When I am searching for a person, I use the IGI and stop as I go 
along to check the films I have on permanent loan.  If I don't have 
the film(s), I can make the decision to order or not.  This is when I 
can also check to see

One Technique: Parent Search

The problem is, I don't have a sccaner.  Sorry,  I wish I did. Many people are asking me to
send them in a sccaner.
Thanks any way

Mary,
I am interested in helping you read the documents you speak of.  Can you scan 
one or two documents and send as an attachment.  I will be happy to help.

Mary,
If you want to forward me those copies I would be happy to help.  My 
Spanish is fluent, but depending on the age of the documents it might 
take me a little more time with the older documents.  I have 
experience with 1700's Spanish. I also know some very experienced 
genealogists I could ask for help if I need to.

I need CP's

Hi Joseph,

Here is the link to look up a código postal:  
http://www.sepomex.gob.mx/cp/busca_cp.html

I looked up Santa Maria de los Angeles, Jalisco, Colonia Santa Maria 
de los Angeles and got:  46240

For Apatzingan, Michoacan I selected one of the Colonia's at random 
and got:  60656

You would need the address to get an accurate zip code, but now you 
have the link.

Joseph, do I need to be a member to get into the IGI search at Family Search?  I am looking for the birth of my Dad, or the marriage of my grandparents.  But I am only able to get into the Family History Library Catalog.



Thanks

Dear Mr Puentes,

I just came back from the Univerisity of Las Cruces in New Mexico.  I need
someone to help me translate the copies that I made, matrimonales, limpa de
sangre, and some other copies.

Also how do I get a password and an ID to enter information on the Rancho web.

Thank you
Mary
