Thanks for your quick response, Miguel. It was a great surprise to hear from you and to find out that we are definitely related. I didn't expect to be so lucky to find a relative in Aguascalientes who is also interested in genealogy. By all means, please send me your GED file which I promise to return with additional family members. I have been working on my genealogy for many years with a concentrated effort in the Ruiz de Esparza line for the last two years. I am missing one link to Lope Ruiz de Esparza and Ana Francisca Gabai, which I will explain by email. My research is not complete, but hopefully I will be much closer in the months ahead.

In answer to your question, I am happy to tell you that I do have fast Internet at home. However, I would prefer a CD if that is okay with you. I will send you a separate email with my address and telephone number. Incidentally, I was born and raised in Guatemala, so my primary language is spanish. I will explain in future correspondence how a Ruiz de Esparza ended up in Central America in the late 19th century. Un saludo, Guillermo.
