Nobody knows for sure if the first group of Tiguas were brought from Isleta, NM (Pueblos) by Spanish as prisoners and slaves to the El Paso area where they settled Ysleta del Sur. For 50 or 60 years there were numerous rebellions of Tiguas trying to leave the El Paso area.

The Tiguas who worship at the Mission of Corpus Christi de la Ysleta del Sur today, help trace their lineage directly to those long ago ancestors forced to help the Spaniards salvage what they could of their possessions from New Mexico.

The Tiguas were one of the few tribes that were separated from their people for hundreds of years, but many of the old traditions are alive today. Very old knowledge is kept alive in the form of dances, religious practices, and beliefs.

Although experts proclaimed the disappearance of the Tiguas, tribal governors can be traced back to early 1680s. The myth of their demise was reinforced in the 1870s when the Texas legislature passed a law incorporating the town of Ysleta and opening to homesteading the Tigua lands granted to the tribe by the King of Spain in 1682. In only two years, all but three acres of Tigua land were taken from the Tiguas. Not until 1967 did Texas recognize the Tiguas as a tribe and establish a reservation for them.

This is an excerpt taken from Wrights book entitled The Tiguas, Pueblo Indians of Texas, 1993

For more info call the Mission of Corpus Christi de la Ysleta del Sur or write
Yvette Lujan 119 S Old Pueblo Rd
El Paso, Texas.

Yvette says that the Quaron, later the Cuaron family were one of the fourteen slave families that were marched south to Ysleta. They farmed the area under a spanish land grant. Census records show various Cuarons (e.g., Josepha Cuaron, Pedro and Felipe Cuaron) in the area up to the mid-eighteen hundreds. My great grandfather left when they took the land and went to Las Cruces, NM, Silver City, NM and then Morenci, Arizona. There is plenty more if your interested...

My great, great, grandfather Jose Pedro Cuaron was born around 1792 and had a daughter, Ma Teresa, b about 1826.
Ma Teresa's daughter was Francisca Cuaron.
I do not have a birthdate for Francisca, but her spouse was Santos Trujillo.
Pedro Cuaron and his family are listed in the Mexican Census of 1841 for Ysleta, Socorro and San Elizario.
They also have ties to Mesilla.
Please e mail me so that we can all trade our information as I am very sure that we CUARON's are all related and we have to tie up those loose ends!
Maggie on this board is my second cousin and Ernest I have already been in contact with.
So let's talk!

A little more on my family: My dad, Jesus Padilla was born in Socorro, Tx. His father Andres Padilla was also born in Socorro as was his father, Julian Padilla who married Soledad Garcia, died in 1867 in Socorro, her mother was Francisca Cuaron b.1781 and father Antonio Maria Garcia b.1779, they were married in 1802 in Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua. Francisca's parents were Francisco Cuaron and Antonio Cabulleno.

In about 1936-37 there was a Cuaron,a young man, a cousin of my father's came to Clifton, Arizona and if I remember correctly he was running for some political office either in Socorro or Las Cruces. I was very small at the time. There might be some newpapers of that era that might have something regarding this.
I do hope to go to UTEP in the near future and do some research there. They have some good microfilms that we have been using. We met a man while doing research at UTEP that was in the process of writing a history of Socorro. My neice talked to him and he did mention the Cuaron name saying he was familiar with it. So we may have a few more leads.

Lets keep in touch and hopefully we can help each other find our ancestors which seem to be the same ones.
Gracias,
Corina
