Re: [ranchos] 1550: Suave!!!


 
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.
