Hi,
I don't know if this will help or not but my grandfather,whom I do not know, is from Veracruz, MX. His name is either Cristobal or Crisofardo Arteaga. No sure on the spelling on the 2nd name. From what my father told me, his mom, Sofia Rodriguez was born in Tampico, Mx but in Jan 25, 1925. Don't know if there is a connection or not.
Guillermo Arteaga Jr
