I found a posting from Lucille Backes when I looked for Calixto Tovar. She is my 1st cousin and I recall meeting Calixto once in NYC when I was a child & once later in NJ when he came to dinner. Referred to as "Uncle/Cousin Calixto" by my Mother, Dolores Bodet Schumann, who married Jack G. Schumann. I'm the youngest of Rosa Tovar Bodet's 23 grandchildren. Interesting world we live in, isn't it? My sister, Judith, & I have been discussing heritage, etc. I understand that my maternal grandfather, Felipe A. Bodet was, as far as we know, from New Orleans and my grandmother, from San Antonio, once Mexico & now Texas. Hope to hear more about the family on both the French & Spanish sides - like, how & when did the Bodets get to this continent from France, etc.
