Deena,
I was in Nochistlan last September and found that they have less information than the IGI does. I think that it might be possible to get more information in Guadalajara than in Nochistlan. In Nochistlan they only have archived the more recent information as in the last 120 years or around that time frame. They were reluctant to pull anything that was not on their computerized data base or they didn't have it there. My sister in-laws sister was, until her death in 2003 in charge of Tlachichila's Parish Records for about 40 years. Tlachichila is in the Municipio de Nochistlan and she said that most of the older records were in storage in Guadalajara. In order to gain access to those records you must be either a historian, professor, someone with influence in the Catholic church or you must present a good case to them as to why you would like to see these records. Maybe by our membership in this genealogical group collectively we could petition these records. Something to
consider?
