Welcome to the group. It seems that you have ancestor information that goes back far enough where the resources we have available through this site and LDS will be useful. I am posting this on the research list as this is really a research-related question.

Alicia,
That sounds like an excellent idea. If you end up getting a group together
be sure to let us know.
How about discussing this at our next meeting? Can I add it to the agenda?

Alicia,
I would be most available during the last two weeks of July, early August (I
am a teacher who takes classes and am assuming some leadership
responsibilities within our district throughout early summer). This trip would fulfill my
I have run into a few ancestors who moved to the Totatiche area from Gutierre de Aguila in the early 1700s. I remember discussing with someone that the name of this town had changed to Villanueva (Zacatecas). I was looking through the films for Villanueva and it seems that the early years of that parrish are missing... the only films available appear to be informaciones matrimoniales.

not sure if you'll be able to access this funny video without a high
speed connection but its pretty funny and interesting how they adapted
this to a Spanish song.
What happened to all the old dialog we use to have in the Yahoo Group? What is going on with the groups quietness?
Do miss hearing from you all.
In my research, I have found that I share common ancestors with El Santo Mateo Correra Magallanas. With gratitude to Kitty & Rich Cortez, I now have a copy of El Santos baptismal record, and a copy of his signature when he was a priest, and baptizing in his parish.
Did you get a chance to read my message about not having the usernames and passwords for DreamHost or the FTP login anymore because my drive crashed?
I remember that the username for FTP is lafamilia...
Are the films that are listed under the "film," tab, without a batch number, does that denote that a batch is not available for that given film?

This site even found the ghost town Bavicanora, Sonora, Mex where my father was raised. I have been to this ghost town 30 years ago and there was nothing living there, just a closed up mine. This privately sponsored gazetteer searches for places by nation or by letter of the alphabet.
Found this website in Melinda Kashuba book "Walking With Your Ancestors" A Genealogist's Guide to Using Maps and Geography. She was our speaker at our June Roseville Genealogical Society meeting.
I'm glad to hear there is a language option.
But if I missed it and I speak the language consider how difficult it might be for someone who doesn't read English.

For Ernie Alderete,
An old post of yours about Petronila MOCTEZUMA mentioned Anna VALADES Masias who married Jose Manuel ROMO DE VIVAR.
Could she be Anna MASIAS Valades, born btw 1710-1720 probably in Aguascalientes? I've come across this MASIAS-Valades or Balades combination occasionally in the records, sometimes as MASIAS-Valdez.
