I have been researching my father's side of the family for sometime. My great grandfather was Leandro Aceves whom married Soledad Alva. They had two children, Emiliano Alva b. 1888 in Encarnacion de Dias, Jalisco & Maria de Jesus Alva born 1890 also in Encarnacion. Emiliano Alva whom was my grandfather had many children; 11 so far that I have found. First family was w/ Maria Luna from San Luis Potosi, Mexico. He had Jose, Berta & Raul De Alva. I found Berta listed as a school teacher in Mexico, but no other information. Then I found Maria del Rosario Ochoa from El Paso, Texas whom had 4 chilren w/ Emiliano Alva; Francisco Emiliano, Soledad, Marcelo & Nicolas. I have been able to find that Nicolas was married to a Juana Ramirez that passed in 2006 in El Paso. They had 3 children incommon; Nicolas Jr (passed 93 buried @ Fort Bliss Cemetery), Maria Isela Alva whom is married to a Ramon D. Gallegos & Ernestina Alva whom is married to a Juan A. Segura. I have not been able to locate them, but have found this information. Next he married Carmen Hernandez Gomez from Ciudad Juarez, Chih & had Arcadia Alva in 1933 whom passed shortly after birth & then my father, Emiliano Hernandez Alva in 1935 (still living), shortly after giving birth to my father, his mother passed. In 1936 Emiliano had his 10th child w/ Maria Correa whom was Juan Jose Alva, & then another in 1938 whom was Jose Dolores Alva. In 1939, Emiliano Alva passed. After this, all has been so hush, hush. Do any of these names sound familiar? Can anyone help me find any living relatives for my father?
