HI,

I am a new member to Nuestros Ranchos and already I made contact with a distant Tisnado relative. Based on the IGI found in www.FamilySearch.com, migration and settlement patterns, I am searching for the Tisnado ancestor who migrated from Jalisco to Sonora.

To date, the earliest Sonora record I have found is the marriage of Jose Domingo Tisnado and Ma(g)dalena Contreras on August 28, 1736.

Surnames I am searching: Tisnado, Lisarraga, Monreal, Tapia, Sesma and ,of course, Martinez.

Thanks for your consideration.

George:

It looks like you are on a pretty good path of getting yur genealogy back to Jalisco in the 18th Century. I see from the IGI that the parents for Domingo Tisnado are not listed in the extracted record. Have you looked at the film to find the actual entry? That should list his parents. I think you are correct that he probably migrated from Jalisco... Anahualco de Mercado in particular has a number of candidates... but it is a very common name so you would need the names of Domingo's parents to pinpoint which Domingo Tisnado you are looking for. That should be easily obtainable from looking at the film.
