Re: [ranchos] Introduction


 
Somewhat, Connie, I think we had determined that we MIGHT be related but not sure.

My Cenobio was born in 1846 in Jerez. His parents were Prudencio Gonzalez and Severiana Salcedo. Cenobio's first wife was Ma. Eleuteria Tobar born in 1849 in Jerez (I think, her siblings were born in Tlatenango de Sanchez Roman). Her parents were Mauricio Tobar and Ma. Petra Escobedo Sandobal. They were from Tlatenango originally. Cenobio and Eleuteria had 3 children that I know of--Josefa, Candelaria, and Jesus Gonzalez. Cenobio was widowed around 1878 or 79.

I don't know when my great-grandparents married--I do know that he was a LOT older than his second wife--he and his first wife had kids that were the age of his second wife and her siblings. Anyway, he married Ma. Francisca Saldivar and had Paula, Ma. Altagracia, Matteo, Francisco, Juan, Sarah,and Jose. That's the scoop so far. I have details on Eleuteria's siblings...such as their names. Marge:)

<x-tad-smaller>Marge, I did go through your files…and was caught by the one on Altagracia Gonzalez. Do you have any info on Cenobio Gonzalez’s extended family? </x-tad-smaller>

Welcome, Connie! Go have a look at my information in the archive files. Some of it might connect with your family. Marge Vallazza:)

<x-tad-smaller>Hello all!</x-tad-smaller>

<x-tad-smaller>My name is Connie Dominguez and I've just joined the Ranchos Groups. I</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>look forward to learning a lot and sharing whenever I can.  I have</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>compiled a lot of information over the past 9 years since I embarked</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>on this journey...so much so that I can't keep a good handle on it.</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>Recently, I lost all of my old Word documents (things I'd compiled,</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>lists, copies of emails & posts, etc.) in a computer crash. A few</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>paper copies that I had just happened to print out survived. I will</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>try to reproduce or scan (bit by bit) what I feel might be useful to</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>the group. </x-tad-smaller>

<x-tad-smaller>I began working on my own family tree and slowly began to branch out</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>to help others. What was once a light hobby became much more. I began</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>corresponding with many researchers, including some in this group, and</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>began learning and helping.  I welcomed challenges from fellow</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>researchers and tried to answer as many as I could. In fact, I began</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>researching/answering so many requests from others that it's been</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>years since I've actually worked on my direct family lines.  :-) </x-tad-smaller>

<x-tad-smaller>I also began a 'small project' (or so I thought) in an effort to get</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>the big picture of the founding families of Aguas. I decided to</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>extract the baptisms, marriages and burials for Españoles from the</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>parish records of El Sagrario in Aguascalientes, Aguas., for the 17th</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>century.  (I extracted only Esp. or those having similar names or</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>mixed marriages only because most designated 'indios' or 'esclavos' in</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>the books did not carry surnames, and because my lines had previously</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>been classified as 'españoles'). However, with this extraction came</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>the tendency to begin linking families and compiling the data.</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>Eventually, I went back to the beginning and compiled family group</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>sheets for every married couple and filled in as many children as I</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>could. I am still in the thick of this process.  I was right...I do</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>have a much bigger picture of the families of Aguas., but in some</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>ways it's too big!  I intend to publish this information eventually</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>and add other compilations I've made in the book's appendices.</x-tad-smaller>

<x-tad-smaller>I will upload the specific surnames I am researching linked to their</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>places and times.  Likewise I will try to retrieve posts I may have</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>added to other lists and post them here if I feel they might be</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>helpful.  I've added my surname list to the Who's Who section of</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>this group if you have any questions or can offer any assistance with</x-tad-smaller>
<x-tad-smaller>those names.</x-tad-smaller>

<x-tad-smaller>Happy Hunting!</x-tad-smaller>
