regulary? I'm planning to be there in May. Are you going to be

the newest member of the group. My name is Susana Leniski. I was
born and
raised in Mexico City, Mexico. I attended "Universidad
Metropolitana" in
Mexico City where I majored in International
Business. Following my
education, I worked for various US based firms
in Mexico. In 1990, I moved
to the United States following my
husband's career and have lived in New
York, Philadelphia, St Louis,
and Seattle. I now live in Seattle,
Washington.

Geneology thru my Grandmother on my mothers
side. She was the one who gave
me the information to my first family
tree. The information that she gave
me was invaluable. Because of my
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).

Church of Latter Day
Saints here in Seattle. I also make an annual
trip to the main Library in
Utah.

and
"Instituto Nacional de Antropologia e Historia" in Mexico City.

in Zacatecas (Jerez, and
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.
