Hi. You said that you have done extensive research in Purepero, Michoacan and was willing to share information. Can you please contact me with what you have found? I am trying to find information (names, dates, locations) about my mother's great great grandmother. She was a very rich woman who owned lots of land in Purepero Michoacan in the 1700's. The story goes that she was warned that the contrada was coming so she bundled her money in cowhide and buried it. The contrada came and couldn't find her money so when the contrada left she went to go dig it up and couldn't remember where she buried it. She lost her mind and everything she owned. You can reach me at
bekahsarah@mac.comThanks.
