Two important people, but I can't find enough information on either one. On one side, I should be related to Porfirio Diaz. On the other side, we have Francisco Coss Ramos. I can't find enough information on either fellow. Porfirio was a Mexican Dictator. Francisco was a very popular general in the war (a boulevard, statue and building are named for him in Mexico). One of my ggrandma's was a Diaz, and a gggrandma was a Ramos. I can't find how they connect to these men yet.

You might have to contact the universities of
Arizona and Texas (their Mecha or Chicano
Historians) to get some information.

I hope this helps.

Hi, If you have something about Francisco Coss, i would appreciate if you send me information about him.
I´m trying to make our genealogic tree. My name is Regina Coss, and well, there is few people with this last name.
Right now i´m searchign for information, and the only thing a i got is only about how he took part int the mexican revolution, what i need is if he had sons or daughters or to whom he got married.
Thank you.
Regina Coss

If I remember right, Francisco has a sister, but we moved and I can't find that information.

I still haven't figured out if my line is related to him by blood or by marriage yet...he was my g-grandmother's uncle. This is all I know (from a newspaper):

Francisco Coss Ramos born 8/15/1880. His mother was Paula Ramos de Coss, his father was Florencio Coss Rodriguez.

do you have any relationship to Montes family? Was told that Ramos were cousins? They lived in the State of Hidalgo, Mexico. Where in the mex. revolution. Please let me know, thanks.

Hi Regina, how are you?
