can you contact the Westwood FHC and ask them if they know who you are
talking about? Maybe he is a regular patron of that FHC. I would very
much like to interview him for the NFU Podcast Project.
I would also like to interview any member of Ranchos who feels they
could concisely put their research into a nutshell of 10-15 minutes in
an audio file. What do you think John Gonzalez?
if any of the ranchos members would like to participate let me know. .
.this would not be an interview but a monologue of you describing your
beginning, middel and end discoveries and the process involved. . .
.call it your own genealogical research oral history. It could be in
English or Spanish. Steven? Victor? Francisco? Rosalinda? Angie? José
Roman? Arturo? Kitty/Rich? Arturo? Connie? Deena? Lorenzo? Maria? Irma?
Nena? Alicia? Helyn? Ronnie? Gloria? Gloria? Peggy? Ed? Evie? Javier?
Josie? Mickey? Carol? Carol? Jonathan? David? Alberto? los demas? the
rest?

John, approximately 12 years ago I met a gentleman
from the Somos Primos genealogical group at the
Westwood Latter Day Saints library. I don't remember
his name but he was a distant relative of my wife
Rebeca Gutierrez Gonzalez; although she did not
remember him. He told me he also was from the same
Gonzales-Casillas family branch from Los Altos, like
my wife.
He helped me to interpret a 1797 Jerez marriage
document written in Spanish. Anyway, this gentleman
had genealogical charts of over 2200 past relatives
that started in Los Altos and went all the way back to
to the year 1200 in Spain.
If you are able contact him, I'm sure he would be more
that happy to share his findings with you. Also, the
gentlemen looked like an Anglo (typical of many of
those from Los Altos, fair, tall, blue eyes); his
English and Spanish were excellent and he seemed very
well educated, and friendly. He told me that he lived
in San Fernando Valley and was a software programmer.
If you contact the Somos Primos group, I bet they'll
help you get in contact with him.
Good luck.

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.
