My Intro


 
Hi all!  Just wanted to take a quick minute and introduce myself.  
My name is Peggy Delgado and I'm currently searching for the 
surnames of Aguirre (not sure of the spelling), Ynostrosa 
(spelling?  I know there's different variations of that name!)Correa 
and Ortega.   Aguirre and Correa in Tlaltenango, Zacatecas, Ortega 
somewhere else in Zacatecas and Ynostrosa in Sierra Mojada, 
Coahuila. I've ordered microfilms from the FHC for 
1914 for Tlaltenango.   My grandfather (my dad's dad), Jacinto 
Pineda was born there on 8/14/14 to Maria Correa and Baudelio 
Aguirre.  Story goes that Baudelio went off to fight with Pancho 
Villa and was never heard from again.  My great-grandma Marie 
married Juan Pineda (he supposedly adopted my grandad and gave him 
his name, Pineda - but when the got married and where is a mystery.  
Baudelio Aguirre is also a mystery....who knows what I'll find with 
those FHC films!  But I'm very excited.....

Next I'm searching for records of my mom's dad, my grandad, who was 
also born in Zacatecas - but where I don't know.  His name is Jesus 
Ortega-Soliz.  I've also order that film for the year of 1897.  
We'll see what that brings.

And lastly, but definately not least, I'm searching for my mom's 
mother's, my grandma's records.  Her name is Paula Mendez-Ortega.
She was born in Sierra Mojada, Coahuila.  Her father's name was 
Manuel Mendez and she had two brothers, Lorenzo and Juan.  Her 
mother, Luciana Ynostrosa, died when Juan was born.  I've order the 
microfilms for the year 1913.

I've been researching since her death in 1992.  She practically 
raised me and thought I owed it to her memory to bring alive her 
past - that's how I got into researching my family tree.  I'm 
thrilled to be a part of this group and hope I can help and be 
helped here.  All my records I will share with no reservations.  
and, when I learn how, I will download my family tree.  

Muchisimas gracias for letting me in!!!

Peggy
