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?
