Emilie,
I find myself in the same situation. I cannot find birth or christening records for my father in-law Antonio Carrillo Juaregui who was said to have been born around 1901 in Nochistlan or Tlachichila Zacatecas. The breakthrough came when I went to Salt Lake in March and found a birth record for one of his brothers Julian Carrillo born in 1904.
Subsequent to that I did find the marriage records for Antonio's parents Francisco Carrillo, Gomez and Mariana Jauregui, Olmos married Oct,1899 in Nochistlan Zac. so that opened up a window and it's logical that my father in-law would have been born in 1901 because he was said to be the eldest of 3 children. I still can't find the other sibling or don't know whatever happened to the sister or what her name was. My husband grew up not knowing any family on his father's side and believing that his father was orphaned. Come to find out he was not orphaned but abandoned by his parents or so they say because I have not found death records for Francisco or Mariana in that area.
I continue the search and I've been able to trace Mariana Jauregui, Olmos' line back to 1785 but I haven't gotten very far with Francisco Carrillo's line. I suspect that Francisco's father Marcial Carrillo may have come from someplace other than Nochistlan. Marcial Carrillo did marry Juliana Gomes on Jan 1 1874 in Nochistlan Zac.and I have that film on order.
My father in-law had a certified record generated by the Registro Civil with witnesses as a legal birth document but never had an official birth certificate, so yes Emilie I understand your grief at not having the actual birth or christening document for verification purposes but you may be able to find one of his siblings.
Buena Suerte............Alicia Carrillo de San Jose, Ca

Oh, Angie, Victor,
I guess the priest my father talked to was correct. The records for 1903 when my father was born were burned during the Revolucion. The films skip from 1902 to 1906. I want to cry.

Thaks, Angie ---- I guess I never looked at the whole list for Jerez and only saw the Bautismos on the top.

never been able to locate my
father's birth record in it, even though I have found his father in
Tepetongo (Rancho Salitrillo) and others there back to the early
1700's. While I was loading the film yesterday, I noticed that the
title of the book filmed was "Bautismos de Hijos Legitimos", and sure
enough, I did not find one "hijo natural" or "hijo de padre no
conocido" in it. It seems all other films I have searched included
all baptisms, hijos naturales, adoptivos, etc. even if they made
reference to other books where the actual names of the parents were
written. So, hmmm, was Daddy illegitimate? If so, is there a book
for "hijos naturales" that was not microfilmed? What would such a
book be called? Where would one obtain info from such a book, and
would it take an act of congress to get it?

for work and for Social
Security and we went from California to Jerez
to the church there only to have the priest tell him that all records
for that time period had been burned during the Revolucion. Sometime
later, my father must have contacted a lawyer there because after my
mother died and I was going through all their records, I found an
affadavit to prove his previously unrecorded birth. As testigos and
witnesses that my father was born in Jerez were listed some men
(maybe they are deceased by now) that bore the surnames of his
parent's and grandparent's lines (Munos, Soriano. Escobedo, Garcia).
His mother was Gorgonia Garcia. Where and how did this lawyer find
them? One place name mentioned was "La Gavia", but it is not one of
the places mentioned in the film I have been looking at (0439867).
In the list of Communidades (Rancherias) de Jerez that I have, La
Gavia is mentioned as being founded by the Garcia-Cadena,
Diaz, and
Escobedo families at the end of the 16th century. The list names 142
communidades y rancherias for Jerez alone. Some of my father's
ancestors were Felix, and there is a community or rancho called Los
Felix on the list. That was founded by Jose and Doroteo Felix. The
community of Tepetongo where my father's ancestors were from was
called Salitrillo, and is not listed in the list for Jerez even
though Tepetongo was in the Jurisdiccion de Jerez.
