Bruce R. Arroyo Spaulding of Mexico

jwsmith619 — 17 Dec 2006 6:00:02 GMT

I am hoping to find what cemetery in Mexico City that my daughter's father (my ex-husband) is buried. His name was Bruce Rodrigo (Roderick) Arroyo Spaulding. Bruce was a helicopter pilot who worked in Guadalajara, Mexico City and later in California.

He died of AIDS on January 10, 1991, one of the first people in Mexico to die from AIDS. Because of this, his family chose to make a secret of his death (age age 36), did not even have a ceremony or let anyone know where he is buried. Shameful, sad.

My daughter would love to find her father's resting place. He was born on August 15, 1954. Family members residing in Mexico DF are Monica Arroyo and Tomas Arroyo. Father was Ramon Tomas Arroyo Mercado.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Where to Begin?

bermic — 22 Aug 2007 2:54:56 GMT

Where do you start when you know so little? My Grandfather was born (or at least raised) in Toluca, Mexico. We always thought his name was Alberto Torres. I have just recently learned his real name was Filogonio Olivares and his Mother's last name was Torres. Apparently he changed his name when he came to America around 1927. He had always said he was half Yaqui Indian, but they seem to have been in an area more Northwest than Toluca. I don't know any brother or sister names or first names for parents. I can't find a border crossing, but once he gets to Ohio his life is an open book. Is it hopeless?

Baptismal Research

ALoy2585 — 2 Oct 2006 5:58:12 GMT

Hello,

I’m trying to find out how I can have someone perform a baptismal lookup for one of my ancestors. I’m researching Casimino TELLES, born 4 March 1832 in Mexico City Mexico. He immigrated to Louisiana in the mid 1800’s after which time completed his naturalization. His birth date and location is based on his naturalization papers. His profession in the 1870 census was listed as “Printer”. The family stories say his family immigrated from Castile, Spain to Mexico on a Spanish Land Grant.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Marcos Zapata Covarrubias- 1600's Ciudad de Mexico

hjocelyn — 7 May 2007 3:25:46 GMT

I am looking for help in how to go about finding an ancestor in the 1600’s from Mexico.

I am looking for Marcos Zapata Covarrubias (or Cobarrubias)
(possibly born abt 1630)

He married Ana de Avila in San Juan, Puerto Rico on Nov 9th of 1660.
Thsi certificate states that he is from “Ciudad de Mexico”
(Source: Arquidiócesis de San Juan; Catedral Nuestra Señora de los Remedios- Viejo San Juan. Libro 1, Folio 44.)

Also in the book “Familias de Cabo Rojo” by Ursula Acosta,
His marriage entry states that he is also from ‘Mexico.’
(Source: Ursula Acosta & David E. Cuesta Camacho, Familias de Cabo Rojo, (1st Edition, 1983). Part I, Pg 82.)

**Can anyone help/suggest where to begin to look for this?
• Are there online records available?
• Any idea which church/parish houses these records from this time?

I have not done any research in Mexico and appreciate any tips/suggestions!
Regards,
Jocelyn

Long Post, Bilingue (Manuel Garcia, Arandas), Please Read

drrosaespinosa — 5 Mar 2007 3:54:51 GMT

I would greatly appreciate anybody who can help me find my mother’s father’s family Manuel Garcia 1910, Arandas Jalisco, Mexico. I hope I can find some of her family before she dies. This is her lifelong dream. I also need information on the following last names: Garcia, (Perez, Macias Tepic, Nayarit, Mexico and la Yesca, Nayarit, Mexico, Trujillo Guadalajara, Mexico), (Espinosa, Arciniega, Serna, Godines from Mexico, D.F.). Below you will find all the information that I have. All of the information that you can provide me with will be greatly appreciated for ever, Dr. Rosa Espinosa Garcia.

My great grandmother was Julia Macias she was born between 1890 and 1895 (born in either Tepic Nayarit or la Yesca, Nayarit). My great-grandmother had a brother Estanislao Macias (Tio Tany- used to sell churros in Guadalajara). My great-uncle Tany never married. My great grandmother married Mateo Macias apparently he was from Spain. They had two children:

Pablo Pérez Macias (Married Maria Guadalupe Andrade) and Rafaela Pérez Macias

GARCIA

Rafaela Pérez Macias (marry name: De León). My grandmother Rafaela had a daughter, my mother, Margarita (Cosme) Garcia Perez born in Guadalajara in 9-27-1940. My mother’s father was Manuel Garcia. My grandmother broke the relationship with my mom’s father when she realized he was married. My mother saw his father few times, and lost contact when my grandmother emigrated to Mexico, D.F. I do not know much about my grand father. Just that he was married and that he had children. My mother believes that he had a daughter that was also born in 1940 with the same name Margarita. She believes she had other children. She also believes that her father’s mother’s name was Marta. There is the rumor that my mother’s father comes from a large family, and that some of them lived in Mexico, D.F. and even in Laredo, Texas. My mother believes that Roque (Rogelio?) Garcia from Laredo who worked at La Posada in Laredo, Texas was her cousin. This man already died and she was unable to verify some of the information.

My grandmother Rafaela Perez Macias married Jesus De Leon Trujillo (who had been previously married). Rafaela Perez Macias and Jesus De Leon Trujillo had four children. Maria De Los Ángeles, Jesús, José Asunción (Jose had a twin who died as a baby) and Quirinito, who died as a very young child maybe 4 o 5 years old.

Espanol

Apreciaría muchísimo si me ayudaran a encontrar a la familia del padre de mi mamá. Manuel García (1910), nació en Arandas Jalisco, México. Espero encontrar a alguien de su familia antes de que ella muera. Ese ha sido su sueño de toda la vida. También necesito información sobre los siguientes apeidos: García, (Pérez, Macias Tepic, Nayarit, México y la Yesca, Nayarit, Mexico, De Leon,Trujillo Guadalajara, México), (Espinosa, Arciniega, Serna, Godines de México, D.F.). A continuación presento toda la información que tengo. Cualquier información que me puedan proveer será muy valiosa y apreciada por siempre, Dra. Rosa Espinosa García.

Mi bisabuela fue Julia Macias Pérez ella nació entre 1890 y 1895 en La Yesca (talvez en Tepic) Nayarit, México. Ella tenia un hermano Estanislao (Tío Tany- vendía churros en Guadalajara) Macias Pérez. El tío Tany nunca se caso. Mi bisabuela se caso con Mateo Macias aparentemente español. Ellos tuvieron dos hijos:

Pablo Pérez Macias (Se caso con Guadalupe Andrade) y Rafaela Pérez Macias.

GARCIA
Rafaela Pérez Macias nació en La Yesca, Nayarit- (1917 o 1915) (apellido de casada De León). Mi abuela Rafaela tuvo a una hija mi mamá, Margarita (Cosme) García Pérez, quien nació en Guadalajara, México en 9-27-1940. El padre de mi mamá fue Manuel García que nació en Arandas, Jalisco (1910). Mi abuela rompió la relación con mi abuelo cuando ella se dio cuenta que era casado. Mi madre solo vio a su padre unas cuantas veces y perdió contacto con el cuando emigro a México D.F. No se mucho de mi abuelo. Solo se que era casado con hijos. Mi madre cree que el tenia una hija que tenia la misma edad (1940) y que también se llamaba Margarita. Mi mamá cree que la madre de su papá se llamaba Marta y que era española. Hay el rumor que la familia del padre de mi mamá es de familia muy numerosa y que hay familiares de ella en México, D.F. y en Laredo, Texas. Mi madre cree que Roque (Rogelio?) García de Laredo quien trabajo el La Posada es su primo. Este señor murió sin que mi mamá pudiera verificar la información.

Mi abuelita Rafaela Pérez Macias se caso con Jesús De León Trujillo (quien había sido casado previamente). Rafaela Pérez Macias y Jesús De León Trujillo tuvieron cuatro hijos: Maria De Los Ángeles, Jesús, José Asunción, (quien era gemelo, pero su gemelo murió) y Quirino quien murió a los 4 o 5 años.

I still live in Texas and close to the home where I grew up. Actually the same house where I lived once I was adopted (6 months old).
I would like to see if there is anyone who can provide information regarding Carmen or just some info as to where to go to get some help in finding her.
I know that if she had the resources at her hand that we do now (internet, technolog in general) she would be looking for me as well.
I have tried looking for her for the past 10 years and have been unsuccesful.
I have even asked for help via the television with only to get an Im sorry we can't help response.
If anyone can provide any help, please feel free to email me at lillm70@aol.com

MCMASTER, DINSMORE, HOLMES, HARDY

Carol Seastrunk — 28 May 1998 12:00:00 GMT

I am hunting for information about the MCMASTER family. My ancestor Dr. James Alexander MCMASTER (1836-after March 1936) took his family to Mexico in 1881 after the accidental death of his eldest son Frederick. His family included his wife Amy Ann (HARDY) MCMASTER (1832 -?) and their children. Lizzie/Licha b. 1858; George Albert MCMASTER (1863 - Oct 6, 1836) whose descendants still reside in Mexico DF.; Joseph Waldon MCMASTER (March 14, 1867 - Dec 10, 1931); Robert MCMASTER (1869-?);Amy (Anita) MCMASTER DINSMORE 1871 -?; MaryBelle (Marianita) MCMASTER HOLMES (March 23, 1873 - Nov 22, 1959). It is known that they were in Acumburo, possibly associated with the railroad there about 1898, Monterrey, and then later with Mexico D.F. from possibly the turn of the century on. Any help would be appreciated.

Zahler Candy Factory

FJP — 13 Aug 2006 6:02:40 GMT

I am looking for info on Jack Zahler who owned a candy factory in Mexico City in the 1920s.

There are reports of him in 1926 articles in the NY Times and the Times Magazine. The articles say he was married and he was the vice president of the American Chamber of Commerce in Mexico.

We do not know what happened to Jack.

The 1926 articles are about the kidnapping and murder of a man from New York, who was in Jack's car.

A 1930 NV newspaper article about Mexico City includes "Former employees of the Zahler Candy Factory who also had been on hunger strike in the government building corridors, abandoned their movement Friday night".

Help for Mexican ancestors...

irlandes — 12 May 2006 1:37:29 GMT

My brother recently joined the LDS (known to most of us incorrectly as Mormons.). He is working on family genealogy, because they bring their ancestors retroactively into the fold.

He put me into www.familysearch.org which is the URL of the LDS genealogy group. Registration is free, though I have read there are more limits on non-members.

I am posting this because not long ago, they announed a free pdf guide to finding ancestors in Mexico. You might have to scan the pages after registering and logging in, due to limited time here, I am not going to post the link for download, assume you can all find it.

Note that they are not aggressive about pushing their faith on those who use their URL. There are links for those who want more information on church, but not an intrusion.

His family was originally from Barcalona, Spain. He married Hermina, who was called Minnie (nee Infanti) and they had 3 daughters and 2 sons in Chicago. One of his daughers, Leonore is my mother. I know he had a brother named Carlos and I remember 2 of his neices visiting us in Chicago. One was Maria Teresa Acevedo and her sister, Alejandro. We called them Mary Terry and Ollie. Maria Teresa used to call me Pretty Blue eyes growing up whenever she visited. If anyone has any information on DePozo or Acevedo, ( may be spelled Acevado ) Please let me know

seeking info on my grandfather, whose surname was Asencio, citizen of Mexico City

Anthony Asencio — 16 Apr 2005 6:42:54 GMT

Hi,
I'm very new to this. I never knew my grandfather. He visited Jamaica over 60 years ago, where my father's mother lived. She had a child (my father) who never knew his father (Mr. Asencio of Mexico City). My grandmother refused (and still refuses) to talk about her ex-lover (my grandfather), so I have very little information to work with. I know he is deceased, but I would like to know if there is a way I can find out more about him, and my Mexican heritage. I live in Montreal, Canada. I imagine there must be many Asencio's in Mexico, so I am not sure how to proceed.

Sincerely,
Anthony

A humble (more or less) suggestion

irlandes — 5 Jan 2005 5:49:49 GMT

I am not at all an official of this URL, so this may be an inappropriate suggestion. If so, moderators, feel free to delete it. Thank you.

Recently, I came to the Mexico Ancestry forums, and on another community forum, that for the state of Puebla, discovered a request for information on a family in a small mountain village, Tepexi de Rodriguez, Pue. My wife has family there, and knows the family the poster seeks. We have a house near there, and could have helped them communicate, but the original posting was made several years ago, and no one has responded to recent my offer of help. Clearly, the OP has given up on the posting.

Do understand that in Mexico, especially in rural areas, most people do not have computers, and when we add the chances of a Mexican from the country, where few folks speak English, using an English language forum, the chances of a response from that community are very low. Not impossible as we have seen; just very low.

So, if you post on a Mexico forum, be sure to check back every three months or so, indefinitely. It is almost an accident that a person from the USA knows Tepexi de R. and that family, and it was almost two years after OP before I discovered it.

Do not give up just because a long time passes with no response.

Hello,

My name is Elisa Dominguez and I am the grandaughter of Dr. Carlos Dominguez. He was born in 1879 and died at the age of 55 in 1934. From the little I know he was a dentist who lived across from Bellas Artes in Mexico City. He was a well-off prominent doctor who had children studying in the United States in the early 1920's.

I am not sure how to go about finding information of Mexico City from the early 1900's. If any one can assist I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you!

Is there a 1900 census for Mexico City, Mexico?

Linda McCook — 25 Aug 2004 2:32:31 GMT

Does anyone know if there is a 1900 census for Mexico City,
Mexico?
And if there is, is there anyone who can do a look up for me?

I am trying to find info re:Mary Jane McCook Guard Baldwin.
She is buried at the Mexico National Cemetery, Mexico City,
Mexico (American Sector).
She died 1902.

I hope to find out if she had been living there for any length of
time prior to her death or if she was just visiting.
I have also found that her daughter Sallie Guard BEDFORD lived in
Mexico City, Mexico so perhaps she will be listed also.
(late residence on interment record of Sallie gives Mexico City.)
(Sallie died in 1916, in N.J.)

So, any help with this will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Linda

In about 1891 ALVER DOBSON and a school chum, WILL DONLY, both of Simcoe, Ontario moved to Mexico City where they went into business together. In 1896, when WILL married EVA BROOK, the business is listed as “DONLY and DOBSON, publishers.”

Two years later, 1n 1898 Alver returned to Canada to marry ETHEL HARRIS, then back to Mexico City where he started a bookstore on Calle de Francesca – The American Book and Printing Co.. Various members of the Dobson family joined him to in the bookstore, including his sister, KATE MARGARET GALE KING. A nephew, WARREN GALE ( the son of KATE and her first husband ADELBERT GALE who died in 1901) was a mechanical engineer with The American Book and Printing Company. He and his wife VERA MARGARET HOPKINSON lived in Mexico City for 25 years until Warren was forced to return to Canada because of a heart condition. . Another nephew, REGINALD DOBSON, (son of JOHN HARRIS DOBSON) arrived in Mexico 1920 and worked in the bookstore for 5 years before moving on to other employment.

ALVER and ETHEL had a home in Mexico City and a small house in Cuernavaca where they spent weekends I believe they were planning to retire there. He died sometime during 1954 - 1956. I have no information on ETHEL’s birth or death.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can find the obituary and/or other information concerning ALVER ROWE DOBSON and his wife, ETHEL HARRIS DOBSON?

Researching my grandmother's first cousin's life.

VERA MARGARET HOPKINSON was the daughter of RICHARD ORION HOPKINSON and JEANNIE WATT ROBERTSON of Waterville, Quebec. She was born in 1892 and married WARREN GALE of Waterville, Quebec.

Somehow they landed in Mexico City for 25 years and had two children, ROBERT and MARGARET 'PEGGY' GALE.

Here are some notes from PEGGY GALE. I lived in San Miguel de Allende for about 10 years and began to start genealogy research while there.

NOTES FROM PHONE CONVERSATION WITH MARGARET -PEGGY- GALE circa 1988 while I was living in San Miguel de Allende, GTO., Mexico.

Her parents WARREN and VERA MARGARET HOPKINSON GALE lived in Mexico City for 25 years and lived on Londres Street.

They belonged to the Mexico City Golf Club and were very much into the Diplomatic Community Social scene.

WARREN GALE was a mechanical engineer with THE AMERICAN BOOK AND PRINTING COMPANY and she has 4 match box patents (Mexican) in his name. (offered to send them but never received)

WARREN and VERA were friends of ANNE MORROW and CHARLES LINDBURGH and VERA flew with LINDBURGH in 1927. They were also friends of KATY and JACK SPEARS. They had to return to Canada because of WARREN GALE's heart condition that could no longer tolerate the high altitude of Mexico City.
