i am looking for descendants of Jose Julian Velarde Ascarte and Maria Gorgonia Cordova Sisneros. Gorgonia was born in Mesilla, New Mexico on 1 Sep 1861. She returned to Mexico and married Jose Julian at Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe on 1 Mar 1878. They had seven children, that I know of: Angela de Jesus, 1883, Jesus Maria, 1885, Pablo, 1887, Jesus Maria 1888, Felipe, 1890, Maria Porfiria, 1892 and Maria Juana, 1893.
Gorgonia was my wife's 1/2 gg aunt. I have interesting and scandalous information on the Cordova side to share going back to 1600 in New Mexico and Spain.
