Velar Name in Texas / Possibly Mexico

Surnames: Velar, Veler, Velis, Veliz, Belis, Zamora
Hello,

I have a Janita (Juanita?) Velar mentioned as the mother of one of my great-great grandfathers, Juan Zamora (his father, Carlos Zamora). On other documents, Maria de Jesus Velis (or, Belis, depending which document you're looking at) is listed as his mother. I am trying to find out who this Janita Velar is so I can move on with my research. If any of these names seem familiar, I'd love to hear from you.

Her husband was Carlos Zamora. At the moment, I have no birth or death information, but Juan was born in 1865 so I'm assuming she'd have been born somewhere around 1845... maybe later if she was a second wife? They all started off in Mexico, but the Zamoras ended up in Texas.
