Irma,
Check out our ranchos files. We have 34
Alvares/Albares, 59 Mota and 1 Soto in our files. Our one Soto is married
to a Campos. The Alvares and Mota lines should be in their own
files. We also have 3 Gomes names, but the are in Lagos de Moreno,
Jal. area, and there aren't too many Ranchos members in that
area.
Rich and Kitty Cortez
Mis cinco centavos: Although I haven't made
connections, (I have Alvarez, Soto & Mota), I appreciate hearing
about these lines. Hopefully, I will eventually make a connection as
I hear more. Maria making a connection is a perfect example.
Please don't taken these into private emails.
Irma
this is open for discussion:
The idea was brought up about
suggesting that specific discussion about particular details of genealogy ties
be taken to private email after the inital flow of communication since it would
not be revelent to most members of the group. Hmmm . . .
Well first off
it seems to me that in the recent upsurge of discussion "provoked" by Carol
Lester (con carino) Maria Cortez might have been "forgotten" for possibly awhile
if that thread had been quickly taken to private email. I really don't like
putting a rule on this kind of thing. As long as its on topic I say let it all
be said. Maybe we can just kind of internally consider when discussion about a
particular connection between members has been sufficiently
"advertised" so that all have had a fair chance at getting the message. On a
volunteer basis we can then just let these threads fade into private email that
is until some part of it needs to be brought back to the group like an addition
to the genealogy line or making a connection with other group members or making
an association with one surname from one area to the same surname in another
area within our target area***.
[***This would be a good database for
someone to work on for the "files" area. Something like a list of surnames that
are well represented in the different locations in our target area].
Que
Piensan? Wha'd yall think?

ps: I can't emphasis enough that
setting your membership option to "Digest" is a very nice option to use for
controlling the clutter [if you can call any message from the Ranchos group
clutter] in your inbox.
