Hello. I have recently found out that my great great grandmother's name was Josepha Lopez who married Bernardo Elias In Mexico. They had a son named Joseph Lopez Elias. I am unaware of any other siblings. I just received a copy of my great grandfather's social security application. I have been told that my great great grandparents lived and died in Mexico. If you have any information that would be helpful, I would greatly appreciate it. Good luck on your research!

These are a few sunames that I am researching from Adjuntas del Refugio, Monte Escobedo, Zacatecas. Some have come from San Juan Baptista, Jeres, Zacatecas.
They have intermarried in each others families. And have stayed in one place for 100's of years. Any one having the same surnames in their family tree please contact me.

I recently learned that my great-grandfather was Feliciano Cervantes, of Zacatecas, Zac., s/o Antonio Cervantes and Rosa Figueroa.
My other paternal g-g-grandparents were Feliciano Reyes and
Maria de los Angeles ("Angela") Cifuentes. The family says Feliciano Reyes was born in Spain, the son of Pascual Reyes
and Maria Refugio Nava. I do not know if Pascual and his wife came to Mexico.
Some of my family came from the city of Zacatecas, and the towns of Guadalupe and Panuco.
A gggg-grandmother was Blasa Lopez who m. Castodo (sp?) Flores--I have no dates, but they are my direct ancestors.
Please let me know if you see any connections. I will gladly share information.

MY FATHER, JUAN CABRAL WAS FROM SOMBRERETE ZACATECAS. HE WAS BORN IN 1906. HIS FATHER WAS LEONARDO CABRAL. HIS PATERNAL GRANDPARENTS LAST NAMES WERE PASILLAS, ESCANDON. I WOULD LIKE TO FIND OUT WHERE THE CABRAL NAME CAME FROM.

I want to know about the Pasillas. Tell me where they live. who the first generation was. names of grandfathers, fathers. what their work is where they live. how to contact the pasillas.

Hi,

I am searching Robles. My Robles lived in Saltillo beginning in the 1680's. They moved to General Cepeda, Coahuila (formerly LOS PATOS) about 1740. My Robles line can found on www.rootsweb.com under the GENCONNECT homepage
by entering exherol database. I am interested in how far back you have researched your Robles family.

Thanks,

I cannot recognize your cabral's as related to mines. All mines are from zacatecas and I have a good ammount of data from mi ancestors since around 1770, but surely some lines from uncles are not complete. I have been making some research recently and found that the cabral surname came from galicia, more precisely from around vigo (pontevedra), exactly from the cabral parrish, there. then some moved from there to castilla (burgos) and portugal(where my ancestors came from around 1750). Here in mexico is interesting to note that most cabral are from zacatecas and there are more lines than I expected and probably not related between them here, although probably all come from the same stock.

I'm having a difficult time tracing my Escandon branch. Mu grgrandfather Joaquin Escandon was born in San Jose de Gracia, Sonora; immigrated to Tucson, AZ in 1880. He was a rancher; died in Tucson about 1935. Don't know who has parents are. Any info. you have on Escandon is appreciated.

Mary........do you know who Rosa Figueroa's parents were?
my Figureroa was Ramon Figueroa married to
Mariana Trujillo.........from Hermosillo Sonora Mexico and
on to Casa Grande, Florence. Prescott Vly....in Arizona
some moved on to Calif.......I have many Figueroa's on
my reseach list including other states in Mexico
please advise..Thanks....Cora

Hi Cora,
Thanks for your reply.
Rosa Figueroa is the only Figueroa I have so far. She would have been born around 1849 +/- 10 years. I got her name and that of her husband, Antonio Cervantes, from the birth record of my grandfather, Carlos Cervantes, s/o Feliciano
Cervantes and Maria Cleofas Casares. My grandfather was born Nov 15, 1889, in Zacatecas, Zac., Mexico.

Good luck!
Mary

My great grandfather's name was Jose Refugio Alamillo he was born between 1876-1877 in Calera, Zacatecas. In this area (calera) he met his wife Matiana Marquez. He had an older brother Iduvejes, and his father's name was Porfirio. If you or anyone has any knowledge of this area, or the surname "alamillo", I would greatly appreciate it.

My Great Grandparents are Carrillo's from Zacateca's.

My father was Seynovio Joseph Pasillas. Any relation to you?

I'm afraid all my research on this name is online and on Rootweb.com also. It's from the late 1800's so your father would have been born too late to be in my records. Was he or his family from Jerez Zacatecas?

I have just visited Valparaiso, Zacatecas, where my grandfather, Manuel Landa (born around 1889), was from, and also the homeplace of his father, Pedro Landa, probably born in the 1860s. My 96-year-old relative in Valparaiso, Manuel Hernandez Landa (a first cousin of my late father), tells me that Pedro's father was named Basilio Landa, born around 1840 or earlier, perhaps from elsewhere in Zacatecas or Jalisco. Basilio's sister was named Petra. Do you have any information about them?
