During these periods I try to allocate time for geneological research. In a few of these 
trips, I have researched historical data at the "Archivo General de la Nacion", and "Instituto 
Nacional de Antropologia e Historia" in Mexico City.... Church Dispensations from 
Guadalajara (Sagrada Mitra- Arzobispado de Nueva Galicia). I will be submitting some of 
these lines shortly.


Susana,

I am interested in your comments on the "Archivo General de la Nacion" since it appears to 
have much information not available in the Mormon repository. A copy of the Archivo is 
available locally at the University of California San DIego, not too far from my La Jolla 
home. (I hope it is there, as advertised).

My questions for you re: Archivo. How easy is it to use? Is it indexed in any way? Did you 
find much information regarding your family? Any tips? Any warnings? 

Do you know where someone could review the Church Dispensations of Guadalajara 
without going to Guadalajara?

Thank you for your introduction.
