Hi, this is very interesting, I am trying to research my grandfathers family. He was born in 1916 in Columbus, NM at the Army post where Pancho Villa fought the US. He was adopted by a military family, but he said that his birth mothers name was Rose Marie Cota. He said that he was a Yaqui indian, (he passed away long ago)
