Re: Rancho del Muerto

>From what I have been able to gather there are two places called 
Rancho del Muerto in Mexico.

One is in Chihuahua.  The other is in Aguascalientes.  There is a 
place on modern maps in the municipality of Rincon de Romos called 
Puerta del Muerto, which may be it and the other is a place just near 
Aguascalientes (the city) called Cerro del Muerto.

Given the proximity of Tlaltenango to Aguascalientes, that is 
probably where you should search.  There is someone who refers to el 
Rancho del Muerto in their geneaology as well:

he is listed as being from "Rancho del Muerto". (Hmmm I wonder how 
that rancho was named). Has anyone encountered ancestors from this 
rancho? I am looking for other possible connections...especially, 
since many of the families in these ranchos were related.
