I 'm searching for any family connection to these surnames from Huanimaro or nearby towns. My grandfather, Miguel Salazar b.ca. 1870's married Consuelo, had my mother, Guadalupe Salazar b.1904. Siblings, step relatives, cousins, uncles were Robledo, Arroyo, Zavala. Most of them emigrated to Los Angeles in the early 20's,30's and 40's. But in a small town of Huanimaro, it's likely that relatives still exist there. I want to connect with anyone from there. There are relatives whom I don't know, but was told by my mother: Perez, Gonzales are but a few.

I have family who lives in Huanimnaro and I woulsd like some information on this town.

Jeanette, I recieved your message several days ago but couldn't respond because of technical difficulties. As I stated in my message board, I am trying to find any relatives or friends of my family from Huanimaro who have any knowledge of my mother, Guadalupe Salazar, and my grandfather . I understand that my mother has a cousin's family still there. This cousin named Natividad Perez (who married her own first cousin) now live in California-- Montebello or East Los Angeles. Natividad's mother may still be alive (in her 90's) living there. I don't know her name, but she is my grandfather's niece. My grandfather, Miguel Robledo Salazar, was born around 1879. He left Huanimaro during the Mexican Revolution around 1913, when he was taken by the federal troops. My mother didn't see him again, until the early 1930's when she came to Los Angeles as a married woman. I know my mother kept in touch and visited Huanimaro up until 1975. Many people from Huanimaro, relatives and friends, were part of my life as a child. Soon after I was born, my mother's great grandmother Ipolita Tinoco Murillo, returned to Huanimaro around 1933. SHE WAS IN HER 90's.She was well known in that (then) very small town and, therefore, I believe if there are any people left from that era, they would probably know something about Dona Ipolita or the Robledo- Salazar family. I am interested in even the smallest bit of information there is. I hope your own inquiries will run across mine. Please write any messages to my e-mail address, since that is easiest access for me.

Hola Maria. He tenido puesto mi mensaje desde hace mucho tiempo.Ojala usted me pueda dar un rumbo hacia algo sobre mis parientes de Huanimaro. No conozco a su pueblo, solo lo que mi madre me contaba sobre la tierra, las plantas, el ojo de agua cercano, de los habitantes (parientes y conocidos). Lamentablemente, no se me ha concedido visitarlo. He estado en Leon, en la ciudad Guanajuato, en San Miguel de Allende, pero no en Huanimaro. Mi mayor deseo es conocer ese pueblo que mi madre tanto amaba. Desde muy nina, yo escuchaba todas los cuentos sobre las costumbres, las
fiestas, y la naturaleza de Huanimaro y sus alredeores. Los paisanos de alla, siempre acudian en mi casa para platicar de su pueblo o para celebrar alguna de sus fiestas, siguiendo las costumbres de alla. Asi es que yo me crie como mexicana, peroa aca de este lado en EU. No creo que todavia este tan chico el pueblo, ojala que las costumbres no se hayan acabado. Para mi fuera muy bonito tener informacion sobre Huanimaro pasado o presente. Aun mas, y se mayor importancia de saber algo de mis descendientes de alla. Ojala usted me pueda ayudar en esto. Tiene muchos anos que esta aca en California? yo naci en Los Angeles en 1932. Mi madre murio en 1991.,asi es que he perdido el contacto con su tierra natal. Espero su contestacion.

Hi Jeanette, I haven't seen any more messages from you for over a year-- I was very hopful that you would reply, because I visited Huanimaro in Oct. 2002, It is such a small town that I am sure poeple there still have connections to each other. If your family is still there, have you kept in touch? I found my mother's baptismal certificate b.1904 in the church there, as well as my great-great grandmother's death certificate 1933. The Registro Civil has wonderful original records archived there.I would want to know any connections to my grandfather Miguel Salazar Robledo b.1879, and my grandmother Consuelo Cendejas Tinoco, whom I can't find in any records. I did find several Robledo relatives still there, but only connected with one of them. I did learn about additional surnames related to my family.
