I would suggest getting a discount rate by being part of the Genealogy
of Mexico group. . .go here for more info:

ask Gary Felix directly if you have any specific questions.
he can tell you things like what you can do with your results and what
to expect.
thanks,

Hi Joseph,
How does one go about getting the DNA testing? I think, now, I'm pretty interested.
Thanks

Subject: [ranchos] YDNA/MtDNA
I did both mine. I posted my Ydna results to the group but haven't for
my Mt dna. My Mt dna goes back to Africa probably a black slave got into
my line many generations ago.
I'm going to eventually make up a YDNA/MtDNA folder in the files area
where those that are interested can post their results. As far as I know
very few in the group have done dna testing. I'm hoping for more
interest as we grow older.

Alicia,
I agree. This really must be an exciting finding for Steven.
I've also wondered how many in the Ranchos group have done a DNA
study (either Y-DNA or mtDNA) or are considering doing one?
What is gradually showing up by those who have done genetic testing
is that most of us with Mexican roots have a European paternal
lineage and a Native American maternal ancestry.
Saludos

Steven,
How exciting that you found this information and that it's a
possibility that you may have made a connection with your ancestral
tribe.
I feel happy for you and a little envy that you have come so far
and that you may have Otomi blood lines. Have you by chance done the
DNA study on anyone in your family? That would be interesting to see
where it takes you.

Hello.
I want to share what I recently found and check if anybody is
related to these ancestors. A couple days ago, I finally checked
the
marriage record of my ancestors from Los Altos.
My 2nd greatgrandfather Juan Tapia married my 2nd greatgrandmother
Bibiana Martinez in Lagos de Moreno on February 5, 1879. Juan's
parents were Atanacio Tapia and Secundina Olivares. Bibiana's
parents were Juan Martinez and Matiana Lopez. Before reading this
document I just knew that my Tapia ancestros were from "somewhere
in
Los Altos", according to my grandmother. She did not remember where
were they from. Now, I know that they were from a rancho near Lagos
called Cañada de Ricos. Is anybody familiar with this name? I
checked the Jalisco census on the files area and found out that the
population in that place is currently less than 100. Well, while
surfing the web, using google, I found something very interesting
about this rancho. On the Lagos de Moreno official website, I
discovered these two entries:
17 de (Abril) 1686 El cacique indígena al parecer otomí Joseph
Cristobal de Luna y Tapia compra un sitio de ganado menor ( 780
has.) y dos caballerías de tierra (85.6 has.) para establecer el
poblado de "Cañada de los Indios Ricos" que evolucionaría a la
actual colonia Cañada de Ricos.
14 de (Mayo) 1935 Se autoriza la fundación del ejido Cañada de
Ricos
su ejecución es el 29 de Junio del mismo año. En esta zona se ubicó
un importante asentamiento indígena a partir de 1686 cuando compra
estos predios el cacique al parecer otomí Joseph Cristobal de Luna
y
Tapia quien efectúa la operación de compra-venta de estos terrenos
en San Luis del Río, Querétaro en el citado año.
I wonder if it is all a coincidence that my TAPIA ancestors are
>from
Cañada de Ricos, a village founded by an otomi cacique named
Cristobal de Luna y TAPIA in 1686. Could this individual be my
gggggggreatgrandfather? Well, I still need to research 200 years of
Tapia history in order to find a possible connection, but it is
quite exciting just to imagine that I possibly found the name and
native tribe of one of my family lines.
Saludos.
Steve
