Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe, Paseo del Norte Marriage Records 1728 – 1775

Presented by Aaron Magdaleno

Aaron Magdaleno will cover the histories of New Mexico, El Paso, and Northern Mexico, from the Juan de Onate 1598 expedition to settle New Mexico, to the Pueblo Revolt of 1680, to the Diego de Vargas Reconquest of 1693.

Aaron remembers from his childhood hearing stories of his family told by his maternal

grandfather, Benjamin Apodaca. Benjamin said that his family name came from New Mexico.

When Aaron began exploring his family’s history, he learned that his great-great grandfather had

been born in Paso del Norte, located in what is now the El Paso/Juarez, Mexico region. By

utilizing the microfilm collection from the University of Texas, El Paso (UTEP) and the Archivo

Historico del Arzobispado de Durango, Aaron was able to prove Benjamin’s stories were true.

These two archives have served as valuable tools in Aaron’s research and are highly

recommended to anyone who is researching the El Paso region. Aaron also consulted with Rick

Hendricks, then professor of the New Mexico State University, Las Cruces, and who is now the

State Historian of New Mexico; the late John B. Colligan, an El Paso de Norte researcher; and

Terry L. Corbett, also an El Paso del Norte researcher.

Aaron Magdaleno has been doing genealogy research since the early 1990s. Now retired,

he is a long-time resident of Santa Ana, California. Aaron’s wife, Sylvia Fernandez-Magdaleno is

also a researcher and a partner in many phases of his work. To view the Nuestra Senora de

Guadalupe, Paso del Norte, now known as Cuidad Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico records, please go

to Aaron’s Website http://www.aaronmagdaleno.com

Please stay on after Mr. Magdaleno’s presentation for

pizza lunch, salad, beverages, fabulous door prizes, and to

research or to network.

Hope to see you!

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

Saludos …

In Spring, following our

abundant rains and

spectacular wildflower

blooms, it is time to refresh

our family connections.

One of the best gifts you

can leave your descendants

is a DNA test.

Exciting News: The Genealogical Society of

Hispanic America is holding its annual Meeting

and Genealogical Conference at the Radisson

Ontario Airport Hotel in Ontario, California, August

18 – 20, 2017. For the second time in 20 years, the

host of this year’s conference is our very own

chapter. An enthusiastic group of volunteers under

the leadership of Conference Committee

Chairperson, Gloria Trujillo, is working diligently to

make this event memorable and educational.

Please plan to attend. Hotel reservations and

conference registration may be found at

www.gsha.net and on page 4 of this newsletter.

On March 25 & 26, the GSHA Southern

California Chapter was proud to participate in the

“Take A Detour from Route 66, Taos to L.A.” event

at the Workman and Temple Family Homestead

Museum in the City of Industry, California. Our

very own Karen Cordova organized a refreshing

afternoon of music, poetry and history readings, all

free to the public. Thanks to all the GSHA

Southern California Chapter members, Anthony

Ray, Douglas Daniels, Karen Cordova, Lenny

Trujillo, Mona Hernandez, Sunny Vazquez

McMullen, Gloria Trujillo, Alexander King, Patsy

Vasquez and Rita Cardenas who were presenters,

volunteers or attendees.

Former GSHA Southern California Chapter

President, Paul Gomez has become President of

our National GSHA organization. We offer Paul our

support and encouragement in his new position.

Patsy Vasquez will represent our chapter on the

GSHA National board. Locally, we still have a

vacancy on our board of directors, in the position

of Secretary. Anyone who is interested in assuming

this position, please contact me at 818-636-8700.

(Continued on pg. 10)

MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR

The 2017 GSHA National Conference is being held right here in Southern California.

The last time

our chapter hosted the conference

was in 1997, so for us this will be

a “homecoming.” This year also commemorates

our chapter’s 25th anniversary. Hosting the

conference in California gives our members who

do not have New Mexico or Colorado ancestry

the opportunity to attend the conference.

The speakers committee composed of

Gloria Trujillo, Douglas Daniels, last year’s

conference committee chair and myself, are

booking speakers who will bring “diversity” to

this year’s conference. Topics will include

presentations on the history of colonial Mexico,

California, and the Southwestern United States,

involving migration, food, historical people and

events, DNA and a “how to” on doing genealogy

research.

Did you know that New Mexico has historical ties to Southern California? In 1841,

several families from Abiquiu, New Mexico

migrated to Agua Mansa, California (present day

Colton). Leonard Trujillo, our chapter’s President,

is a descendant of Juan Manuel Lorenzo Trujillo,

a founder of the Agua Mansa community. The

Old Spanish Trail is the route these families

traveled from New Mexico to California.

The GSHA website has a new look. Thanks

to Colleen Greene, a GSHA-SC member and web

developer, who worked on the site. The address

is the same http://www.gsha.net. For

information on booking a hotel room and

registering for the 2017 GSHA National

Conference, please see page 4.

It is with great sadness that the GSHA-SC board of directors

announce the passing of our newly elected Secretary,

Diane Correa de Rempel on January 10, 2017.

Diane spoke at our August 2, 2014 General Meeting.

Her topic was on “Zacatecas, Major Silver Strike Discoveries

(1500s-1700s) and their Impact on Spanish Expeditions and

Northern Mexico Settlements”

The following text comes from the August 2014 and

October 2014 issues of Huellas del Pasado.

Without Zacatecas, some of the early expeditions to New Mexico and Alta California may never have happened!

Diane Correa de Rempel, will take us on a journey of

this remarkable city which became famous not only for silver

but as a hub for Spanish expeditions to the north. Zacatecas

was the spark for the establishment of other cities in Northern

Mexico. From the 1500s to the 1700s, silver strikes in Zacatecas

transformed politics, culture, architecture and new Spanish

settlements to the north. The Paez-Hurtado Expedition to New Mexico in 1695 included former residents

of Zacatecas who settled in Santa Fe and Santa Cruz, New Mexico.

Correa de Rempel will share her research findings and highlight how Zacatecas became a center

of mining, development and genealogical interest to descendants of villages in

Northern Mexico, New Mexico and Alta California.

Diane, a graduate of Occidental College, and expert in Mexico research

will answer questions and also share genealogical resources and websites to

those trying to identify their Mexican roots. Please don’t miss this great

opportunity!

Come join us as we cross the border into Zacatecas, Mexico. See you on August 2.

MEETING IN REVIEW

August 2, 2014

“Zacatecas, A City of Silver Riches and History”

Presented by Diane Correa de Rempel

By Rita Vega Acevedo, VP Programs & Education

Speaker Diane Correa de Rempel ‘packed the house’ when she spoke about Zacatecas, Mexico at

the SCGS Library in Burbank. Attendees learned about the first silver mining strike in the 1540s and how

the wealth from silver sparked more mining explorations in Northern Mexico, including the establishment

of new villages and cities. Correa de Rempel said that this wealth resulted in planned cities which

included beautiful cathedrals, roads, grand architectural designs, water delivery systems, plazas, domestic

goods and other amenities previously unknown to the region. People also learned the downside of silver

mining. The enslavement of the indigenous population was rampant and working conditions for slaves

and other laborers were poor, resulting in various rebellions, work stoppages and murders of workers.

Soldiers were also used to remove indigenous populations from their regions to make way for haciendas

and private agriculture and cattle raising.

(Continued on next page)

Holiday Meeting.



(Continued from previous page)

Mining in Zacatecas also attracted small business entrepreneurs to serve the camps and villages.

Spanish administrators, always on the lookout to tax everything and everyone, tried to control the

economy and keep people in their assigned castes. The wealth from Zacatecas and other mining towns

not only helped Mexico City became a world class city but allowed many mine owners to finance

expeditions in search of more riches in unknown lands. The Oñate Expedition in 1598 to New Mexico was

one example of how silver mining money was used to expand the Spanish Empire while giving explorers

fame, titles and rights of free Indian labor (the encomienda system) in exchange for Christianizing the

indigenous peoples.

Those in attendance learned that they may descend from Zacatecan ancestry, especially if they

came from the Santa Fe and Santa Cruz areas in New Mexico due to the 1695 Paez-Hurtado Expedition.

Paez-Hurtado recruited forty-six families from that region to settle northern New Mexico. This was

documented in John B. Colligan’s book, The Juan Paez-Hurtado Expedition of 1695: Fraud in Recruiting, and confounded historians and genealogists for years due to erratic and improper record

keeping by Paez-Hurtado, a Vargas soldier. Governor Diego de Vargas wanted to diminish the Native

American war threat by increasing the ratio of Spanish settlers to the Native American population. The

painful and humiliating ousting of the Spanish during the 1680 Pueblo Revolt was still a vivid memory for

Vargas and others determined to retake the region.

During the question and answer period, a lively discussion ensued with people sharing their own

experiences from previous visits to Zacatecas, including seeing the churches and government offices in

search of genealogical information or to visit relatives. Board member Cathy Romero noted that

Zacatecas is a World UNESCO site and everyone agreed that they would love to visit the city!

From Wikipedia A World Heritage Site is a landmark which has been officially recognized by the United Nations, specifically by the

United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). Sites are selected on the basis of having

cultural, historical, scientific or some other form of significance, and they are legally protected by international

treaties. UNESCO regards these sites as being important to the collective interests of humanity.

HIGHLIGHTS FROM HISPANIC SATURDAY SAN DIEGO Ceasar Castro, Outreach Coordinator

There were 14 participants at our February 25, 2017 meeting. I covered two topics, finding

Mexican records on the FamilySearch website and then translating those records.

I exhibited how to get to the actual birth, marriage and death records on the FamilySearch

website. Because many of the Mexican records are not indexed, one has to go through the actual

documents in the hopes of finding the record of an ancestor. Once you find a record, you usually need

to translate the document because they are in Spanish. The older the document, the harder it is to

translate because the older documents use a lot of abbreviations. The actual script used in the document

can be hard to decipher. There are books on Spanish paleography (the study and deciphering of ancient

handwriting) which can help translate old Spanish documents. The

process of transcription is done in three steps: transcribe the document

verbatim, transcribe to modern Spanish, and then translate to English. I

demonstrated the process. I also shared some books on the topic.

The next Hispanic Saturday meeting will be on April 17 at 1 pm

at the San Diego Central Library. Attendees will need to go to the 9th

floor to find out which room has been assigned for the meeting.

THIS IS A COMPARISON BETWEEN THE 2015, 2016 and 2017 PROPOSED BUDGET showing the Chapter’s Income and the Expenses of each Board Member. The 2017 Budget was approved at the GSHA-SC Board Meeting held on January 16, 2017. The Budget can be amended by the Board to reflect changes in the Chapter’s income and expense. We publish the budget even though Chapter bylaws do not require it.

This past year we have received donations from Ralphs Groceries. The Ralphs Groceries programs is the least time intensive for fund-raising because once someone is enrolled, their Ralphs purchases automatically earn donations for the Chapter. If more members were to participate, we can easily add funds without additional effort.

Book sales still provide a steady, though declining income. The Board continues to look for ways to improve book sales.

As we look for additional revenue sources outside of our membership and book sales, we welcome your ideas for increasing our income and/or reducing expenses. Currently we limit our fundraising activities to those that do not require a lot of attention from the Board. When more of you volunteer to help with fundraising and/or other activities we will be able to add more functions and research opportunities.

As members, you are the organization, so please join us in sharing the responsibilities.

problems. When this happens, I will change the
