Re: [ranchos] Re: introduction-new member of los ranchos


 
Arturo:
 
I'm at the same point you are. I have 2 more brothers for Antonio Carlos de Godoy and Catalina Carlos de Godoy (Sebastian and Juan). I don't know their father's name. I know the mother was Maria Rosales, and the grandmother was Agustina Rosales. A Historian from Zacatecas told me that the father's name was Juan Carlos de Godoy, but he didn't give the sources for this information.  Look at my file in Ranchos2, in the same file you can see the sources for the information that I have.
 
Shortly I will be submitting the file for the De la Torre line.  Thanks for the link. I'm going to check your info
 
Regards
Susana Leniski

Susana:

I have a couple of lineages that go back to the Carlos de Godoy
family in Jerez.  I have actually not been able to get further back
than the fact that these two people (who are both my ancestors) were
siblings born circa 1630? but I don't have their parents' names:

1. Antonio CARLOS DE GODOY
2. Catalina CARLOS DE GODOY

I also have a lot of De La Torre lineages from Zacatecas, which you
can search for in that same database.

family history, I specialize in Mexico and Spain research from early
1900's to the 1500's. I have successfully traced some family lines to
the 1600s in diverse areas of Mexico including Queretaro, Zacatecas,
and Mexico City. Other lines have led to research in the Basque,
Catalonia, and Andalusia region of Spain as far back as the 1500's
(Basque region).

Tepetongo mainly) are: De la Torre (many lines), Carlos de Godoy,
Salinas (Family of Don Francisco Garcia Salinas "Tatapacho"),
Escobedo, Salas, Carrillo, Del Muro and Miranda.  My family left the
area around 1820, so my reasearch in Zacatecas has been during the
1600's and 1700's. During this period the majority of my data has
been extracted from Church Dispensations from Guadalajara (Sagrada
Mitra- Arzobispado de Nueva Galicia). I will be submitting some of
these lines shortly.
