Hi, I'm looking for my Grandmother and my Mother's family. My Grandmother was born in El Fuerte cerca 1880, her name: JUANA FLORENTINA VALENZUELA, cerca 1904 she married my Grandfather: RAFAEL O MANUEL ALVARADO (he later changed his surname to: MARTINEZ OR MANRIQUEZ), from that marriage they had 2 children in LOS MOCHIS,SIN, my Mother: MARIA HERIBERTA ALVARADO (paterno surname) in the 1930 Mexican census there is a MARIA GALVAN b-1905, I believe she is my Mother. My Grandmother Juana apparently died in Los Mochis cerca 1908 (I'm not sure if that is correct, she might have separated or divorced my Grandfather) my Grandfather remarried to: ROSENDA ALGONDA FLORES, the Valenzuela family could not accept this marriage so my Mother and her brother: JUAN GALVAN ALVARADO, also born in Los Mochis cerca 1906 moved to MILPITAS OR EL QUEMADO DE MAZATLAN,SIN, with my Grandfather and their step-mother, cerca 1955 is the last contact we had from them. My Mother immigrated to the USA cerca 1917-20, she married my Dad cerca 1925, Samuel Romero of Santa Fe,New Mexico, she died in San Juan Capistrano using the name ERIBERTA ALVARADO ROMERO (not her Mexican name) the following surnames belong to her family: COTA, VALENZUELA, GALVAN, GALAVIZ, CLIQUERI AND BRIONES. My Great-Grandmother was named CATARINA and she also was from El Fuerte, not sure if her surname was COTA. If you have any of the above in your records, please advise me. I only want to notify our Mexican relative of my Mother's death. Thanks and have a good day. Ed Romero Stanton,Ca
