This
may be a lame question, but if a Rancho is listed as the birth place, what does
that really mean? How do I find the histories of these ranches on the
roles people played in them? What that information be on the same
website? I haven't really looked and I don't understand Spanish too well
although I can try and muddle my way through.
I'd
appreciate any insight.

p.s.
the Ranchos I'm interested in are Las Llamas and Encinillas, both outside of
Tlaltenango de Sanchez Roman, Zacatecas.
There is a ranch just outside of Jerez
called Lo de
Luna. Many of my ancestors came from this ranch.
I
believe my uncles (Garcia de la Cadena branch)
purchased the
ranch from the Munoz family in the early
1700's.
