My Nina is an Alteño


 

I just got off the phone and it turns out that my Nina who married my Nino, Jose Refugio Puentes, is an Alteño. If anyone comes across any of these names from San Miguel el Alto please let me know.

Estanislao Marquez (dob: 1857) married Teodora Jimenez and had a Mateo Marquez who later married a Juana Peragon who was born in Spain.

Yes I realize this is not much to go on but if it rings a bell let me know.

Joseph

ps: she mentioned misc. stuff like another cousin of mine who is from San Juan de los Lagos was a De Anda.

pps: Is San Miguel el Alto the only Pueblo/Rancho in Los Altos area that has "el Alto" in its name? My Nina said, "my grandparents were from 'el Alto' and it seems that i remember 'San Miguel el Alto' " but then she was talking about San Juan de los Lagos so I didn't get a 100% confirmation on San Miguel el Alto only a "pretty sure." She did go on to say that when her grandmother died that her grandfather went to San Juan de los Lagos and 6 months later came back to California with a new bride that was a Marquez and a second cousin.
