Re: [ranchos] Entierros

 
Arturo,
 
I have checked death records for Chihuahua and New Mexico and Texas, and they give the same information in the same format as that found in the Jalisco records by Irma.

Hello.  Since I have only looked at one set of microfilms for death records, my experience is limited.  What I noticed about these records from Jalostotitlan, Jal. is that the following is included:
 

Place or where death ocurred ,   Place or location of Burial--in other words, which cemetery? ;

 

name of person, age ,  Date of death and burial,   Fecha de defuncion/entierro,

 

Parents, widow or widower of the deseased, Cause of death, and whether they received the last Christian rites or not.

 

Irma

Can someone who has looked at films of parrish books listing burials
tell me how extensive the information listed in these books is?  Does
it list parents, survivors of the deceased?  I have two particular
issues... one where I cannot connect an ancestor (Marcos LEMUS m. Maria
Barbara YBARRA) to any one of his potential parents (children of a
Felipe LEMUS that was the grantee of the land where Marcos lived, his
children were born, etc.).  I cannot find a marriage or birth record
for him...

The other is that baptismal and marriage records for Jerez, Zacatecas
seem to be missing for the crucial period at the end of the 17th and
beginning of the 18th century when many families moved from there to
Totatiche, Jalisco... so I am hoping that death records will make the
connection.
