Hi Alberto:
Thank you for the "heads up " on a
very interesting article. It has quite a few names that I am
presently researching. It is going to take a few days to sort everything
out to make "heads or tails" . Just a quick preliminary perusing
reveals a lot of information that I can use.
Today has been one of those days that makes
you feel almost numb from joy and good fortune. Earlier in the
day I got en E-mail from Ken Alva. He sent me some information that will
take me all the way back to the birth of Alonso de Hermosillo in
Hermosilla, Burgos, Spain in 1467 !!! Three generations in
Spain, 10 generations in Jalos, and 3 in California! That puts me in the
16th generation of Gonzalez"s.
I had gotten stuck with Juan Gonzalez de
Hermosillo and his wife from Mexico City .They settled in Jalostotitlan in
the late 1500's.
Ken's information picks him up from there and
takes him three generations back into Spain!!! Talk about getting
lucky.
I have already pinpointed Hermosilla,
Burgos on a map of Spain. It is very tiny village in the Northern part of the
country.
I just don't have enough words to express my deep
appreciation and thanks to all the members of Ranchos...Thank
you.

John, check out the below website. It has some of
the same names you've mentioned in some of your emails. The website was
sit up by my wife's (Rebeca Gutierrez Gonzalez) relatives from Los Altos,
Jalisco. I hope it helps you find some more names and
relatives. Who knows? we may be related.
Good
luck.
