Muchisimas gracias, Jose,
Yes, someone else sent me that film number that I didn't know about because
I had always searched for Jerez, not knowing that Jerez is now called Ciudad
Garcia.

Subject: [ranchos] Bautismos de Hijos
Legitimos vs. Hijos Naturales de Jerez, Zac.
Hi Emilie:
Among the microfilms listed in the FHLC from Jerez, Zac. there are some entitled
"bautismos de Hijos Naturales", but I don't saw any
of the 1903 year. ¿Do you has had this microfilms? Another option is
"Registro Civil" In these last records, there is
1903 year:
| Nacimientos 1903-1904
|
FHL INTL Film 1081921 |
I think that is good idea see this microfilm, maybe, that records missing
are that which repository was the parish, but for the information
above, the records which repository is "Registro
Civil" are not missing. The microfilm is found at "Ciudad García, Zac."
as this is (Use for) Mexico, Zacatecas, Jerez de García
Salinas
I hope this little contribution will be useful to you.
Success!
JRGL.

Yesterday I was at the local FHC again poring over the microfilm for
baptisms from Jerez around the time my father Guadalupe Olague was born
(January 28, 1903). I have 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?
My father at one time (in the early 1960's) needed a birth record 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.
Does anyone know about books for "hijos naturales", etc?
