Today I broke through my last
brick wall. . .in fact I didn't break through it I pulverized it into
non existence. I started off by not knowing my maternal grandmothers
real name to finding it by a collection or oral history and the brief
mention of a surname on my mom's death certificate. Then about a couple
of months ago I made contact with some that told me that they were
related to this grandmother and that she came from Huejucar. Well today
I confirmed that my grandmother, Antonia Lopez was born 17 Jan 1892 in
Atotonilco, Jalisco a Rancho not far from Huejucar. Her parents are
Francisco Lopez and Rosalia Garcia. Her Abuelos paternos are Nicolas
Lopez and Alvina Perez and Abuelos maternos are Florentino Garcia and
Toribia Renteria. My grandmother Antonia Lopez had at least two
brothers: one named Nicolas and another named Antonio Lopez who later
married Demetria Jacobo and had at least one child named Crecencio
Lopez who married Josefina Cerujo. Nicolas Lopez when on to marry and
have one child named Francisca Lopez who married a Rogaciano Raigoza.

What is interesting is that oral history told me she was from
Atotonilco but I didn't know there was 3 Atotonilco's in Jalisco (who
knows but maybe there are more). I had always though that I would have
to get records from two Atotonilco's in Southern Jalisco and just start
having to hunt around for a misc. Antonia Lopez and hope to be able to
detect if it was my Antonia Lopez. Having found an Atotonilco close to
Huejucar has been great.
oh by the way I found the marriage record for Florentino Garcia and
Toribia Renteria. And there parents are: Agapito Nestor Garcia and
Maria Antonia Lopez AND Antonio Renteria and Antonia Montes.
cool huh?
