Re: [ranchos] Re: Books by Esteban Valdez of Totatiche

[Guillermo Valdez <valhdez@...>]

I wish I could say that I am related to the Valdez
from Teotaltiche. My Grandfather was from Zitácuaro,
Michoacán. I haven't trace enough to know where they
came from before Michoacán. I know there is a large
Valdez family both in Zacatecas and Veracurz, but I
haven't on the Valdez from Michoacán. Anyone who has
more information, please let me know. I will check
this info in the meantime.
