Hi all,
My name is Jessica Castaneda. I am just starting to try and do
genealogy research on my husbands family from Zacatecas, Mexico. I
have worked on my lines before but I feel I am in a completely new
ballpark now. I have been reading your postings and am excited to be
able to learn from you all. A little bit about myself- I have a one
year old who is currently teething, my husband and I are in the
process of buying a house and moving, and I work coordinating
educational programs from migrant children in TN. I met my husband
teaching English.That's enough about me.. What I know about my
husbands family is this. (not much)
His fathers name is Crescencio Castaneda-Salazar. Mothers name is
Juana Hernandez de Leon. They currently reside in Chihuahua but his
father was born in Valparaiso Zacatecas Mexico. Crescenio's father
was Antonio Castaneda-Dominguez although some say it was Castaneda-
Martinez. His wife's name was (this is where it gets confusing) some
say Teodora Salazar others say Ignacia Domingez. Antonio's father was
Pedro Castaneda and mother was Ignacia Domingez. They tell me there
were two Ignacia Dominguez's but I am skeptical. Everyone seems to
tell me different things. They resided in Valparaiso.
Crescensio's brothers name is Benancio Soccorro Castaneda.
Well that's all I know now. Hopefully in the near future I will have
more information to share. If anyone has any information that you
think would be helpful I would appreciate any and all of your
thoughts! Thanks.
