The Alvarez family is an old family of Hope area. Their family is listed and talk about their lives here in the book called "Forging a New Hope." They have descendants here, the Barber family, the Alaric family, etc. Susan Alvarez was I believe one of Mary's daughters. she married a second time after her first husband died. I don't recall the names yet but if you get to Hope, check the phone book for Barber and Alaric, may have luck, yes I believe she is buried in Hope, and most of the family is Catholic so you would find them in the Catholic cemetery. Hope it helps. If you want you can contact me at
