Seeking info about this person, who was a bodyguard to and killed with Pancho Villa on July 23, 1923 in Parral, Chih. May have been my Grandmother's brother. Have found only a mention of his being buried with other members of Villa's entourage, but would like more info about him, especially names of his family. He was possibly born in Sonora.

It is signed by and showing in the picture Francisco Villa, Miguel Trillo, Sustenes Garza, Porfirio (Morelos??), J. Nieto, Alfonso Gomez M., Ricardo Michel, Lorenzo A, Daniel Delgado, Jose B. Garcia, Nicolas Fernandes, Ernesto Rios, Silverio (illegible), Ramon Cordora, one who put his "sign", and two didn't sign.

Have only some 3rd or 4th hand family info. If this person is who I've been told he was, his parents were Francisco Hurtado and Rosario Miranda of Sonora. Their daughter, my grandmother, was born 1891 in Agua Blanca, Son. She married Laureano Daniel and died 1930 in the Phoenix area. Sorry, I have no other info, either, but am still searching.

Mr. Gunby,

Where did you find that picture? My great grandfather is Ernesto Rios. That seems to be the only picture of him with Pancho Villa. Please help.

My grandfather was a neighbor to General Ernesto Rios in Montemorelos, Mexico. My family and his family were close. I was looking to see if I could find any historical information on him and I saw your post. Nice coincidence.

Did you get the picture from Mr.Gunby? I emailed him asking for a copy but I have not received a reply yet.

Does anyone have information about Alfonso Larios? He was my grandfather and I understand that he had stories of Poncho Villa from when he was in the Mexican Army. I really don't know much else but I'm curious if anyone has any information about him. He was a colonel and I hear he was second in command at that time for the mexican army. My mother tells me she saw his name in a book once while living in Mexico before they came to the U.S. but haven't been able to find anything. He was of the Larios family from Malaga, Spain.
