Books by Esteban Valdez of Totatiche


 
Hi Angie,

On my visit to Totatiche last summer I also bought a copy of the "Los 
Valdez" and "Los Jara" books by Don Esteban Valdez.  

Besides the books you mention, I know of a couple more, which I also 
bought:  "Historia de Totatiche" and "Historia de Totatiche II".  
I obtained also the following smaller works:

Un Sacristán en Monterrey - Crónicas
Estirpe Sacerdotal Campos-Jara
El Sacerdocio Ministerial - Singular Don a la Parroquia de Totatiche

Of his latest book I still don't know, because last July he said it 
was still a work in progress and he was only at the start of that 
project.  He did mentioned that it would be mostly about the 
genealogy of several families from Totatiche.  I'm going to try to 
find out if he has any other books and I'll let you know when I do.

It is good for me to know that we share a common interest in that 
area of Jalisco.  I'll let you know when I upload some of my 
ancestors so you can check if you see familiar names/surnames.

Victor
