* Eugenia Martinez Torres of New Mexico

stella_amado — 2009-10-20 08:53:19Z

I am searching for Eugenia Martinez Torres, my grandmother.

Eugenia was born in New Mexico, her parents were Miguel and Apolonia Martinez.

Eugenia married Thomas/Tomas Torres, my grandfather and settled in California (T. Torres was not from New Mexico).

Together they had nine children, my mom, Jessie Martinez Torres, was one of the nine.

Soon after having their last child, Eugenia left the family. My mother, for obvious reasons, never spoke of her mother.

I do not know what happened to Eugenia. Why she left, if she remarried, or if she had any other children.

Please contact me...

POW/MIA Korean War, TORRES

powmiadna — 2009-08-12 17:33:56Z

I am searching for the family of a soldier who was killed in the Korea War. When he entered service he gave TORRES as his home of record. His remains were never recovered. Our government has no family contact at this time for this soldier

Soldier: RALPH LOPEZ TORRES
Born: 1928
Date of loss: Sept. 9, 1952 KIA
Home of Recoed, Los Angeles County, Calif

When the Korean War ended the enemy never returned or accounted for over 8,000 of our servicemen. They died in their hands. That was over 50 years ago. Since that time DNA has been perfected and also they are recovering remains in North Korea. Our government is obligated to return those remains to the proper family. DNA samples have been obtained from most of the families of these missing soldiers. For various reasons some families have not been located.

When the remains are recovered and identified they will be returned to the family for proper burial. I am just an old (79years) Combat Veteran out of the Korean War and thankful that I did return. I consider this a very noble cause and I hope that you can help in some way to find this family. For more information on the project you may go to http://www.jpac.pacom.mil/. My part in the program is to match up the lost families with the proper agency.

I will be grateful for any assistance in locating this family.

Re: Arriola Family Tree

grvela1 — 2009-04-21 02:28:23Z

My paternal grandmother was named Maria Antonio Bermea Arriola. She was born in Rosales, Mexico in 1864 and died in San Antonio, Texas at 96 years of age in 1960.
She grew up in Rosales but left Mexico in 1911 to keep her husband and three sons out of the revolution of 1910. The rest of her life she lived in Texas.
Many times I heard her talk of Nacogdoches and of relatives there. She also talked of the land deeds to land in Nacogdoches but I never saw these.
My wife has worked on the genealogy of the Bermea and Arriola families but has made no prpgress over what I say here Help Help Help May I hear from you?
