Hello,
I am a descendant of Antonia Ybarra, who had a brother named Anacleto. Her mother was named Maria de Jesus Tapia and born in 1821, and father named Jose Ybarra. It is believed he is the same Jose Hilario Ybarra that you cite here, but I haven't found concrete proof of that fact. Also, named on Antonia's baptism certificate is Maria Antonia Sylvas. Names were often misspelled, and there are different variations so I'm wondering if this sounds familiar to anyone reading? My grandmother (still alive) stated she remembered having cousins who were descented from a tia Flora. This project is mainly for my Grandmother, who very interested in our genealogy. I am trying to take this research as far back as possible and we can't seem to go beyond Maria de Jesus Tapia, or obtain any further information on their father Jose. Eager to hear from anyone who might be able to shed light on this. Please contact me at
