Hi all, I just recently joined the group and I am researching for
information on my mother's side ancestors. They are from Los Altos de
Jalisco, some from ranchos and some from small towns.
The surnames I am researching are Hernández, Cervantes, Abarca and
Valle (some other relatives are Placencia, Nuño, Nuñez and Sánchez).
They are mostly from the area of San Jos de Gracia, Atotonilco el
Alto, Ocotln, Arandas and the ranchos of Ortiguilla, Ojo de Agua de
Latillas, La Muralla, Barranquilla and El Salvador.
My farthest I could get was to my great great grandfather Marcelino
Valle, born in the mid-1800s and his 2 wives; Rita Hernández and
Toribia Nuño (or Nuñez) (married again after Rita died). Also my
great grandparents were Refugio Cervantes and Leonides Valle
(Marcelino's daughter), and Bruno Hernández and Catalina (or
Catarina?)Hernández; my grandparents were Félix Hernández (son of
Bruno and Catalina) and Guadalupe Cervantes (daughter of Leonides).
Any help would be greatly appreciated and I have some information on
the families of the rest of Marcelino Valle's children also if you
think we are related.
