Looking for Information on Salgado & Navarette

naarcia — 2009-06-17 01:59:13Z

I'm looking for information on the Salgado side. My great grandmother was named Victoria Salgado. I believe her mother's last name may have been Navarette. I have very little information except she was born in Guerrero, Mexico during 1897-1903 and that her mother possibly died of gangrene and her siblings were sent to different relatives.

my grandmother's last name was resendiz and she was from guerrero mexico. she recently past away... my great grandmother and great grandfather also passed away not too long ago. all i've heard is that she came from a very knowledgeable father and she actually knew alot about history, which is very uncommon for someone from guerrero to have had so much education. my father's last name is resendiz, but i recently got married so i'm no longer carrying the last name.

Re: Suastegui

Raclare — 2008-05-13 18:57:20Z

Hello, Carlos,

Check my reply on this message board, posted about a month ago. I told much of what I know about the Suastegui/Zuastegui families that I have found. The name is definitely Basque, but has a form that is found almost exclusively in the 'New World'. It derives from Suasti/Zuasti or Sugasti/Zugasti. It became most numerous in the state of Guerrero but the name has also evolved in Mexico City, Sonora, Yucatan, Cuba, Ecuador - and now, with you, in Guatemala. Migration has carried it to other places as well. What city in Guatemala does your family live in? Did your grandfather marry in Guatemala? I will make a note of dates or place names that you can provide and if a connection can be made to other Suastegui families, that would be interesting. I am not too optimistic about finding connections, but if any turn up I would certainly let you know.

Re: Suastegui

carloszuastegui — 2008-05-09 01:16:38Z

Hi, my name is Carlos Zuastegui, I am writing you from Guatemala in Central America, we don´t know exactly where our last name came from, everybody saids that is from the Basque region, but both my grandparents died when my father was very young so we lost track and never got the chance to really find out, so if you can share some information with me I will appreciate it very much, thanks for posting this article.

Re: Suastegui investigation

eswrite — 2008-04-18 02:12:52Z

Thanks for all the very useful and interesting information. You´ve certainly done some sleuthing. I am still in San Sebastian (Donostia) through this morning and will see about doing some sleuthing at the hall of records and a local Basque store. I´m not sure I will be able to uncover any more than others have through years of research, but we will see how far we get.

FYI, I am one of the Cuban Suastegui´s. I emigrated to the US (California) in 1980 with my father and brother, so 3 Suastegui´s in all.

Re: Suastegui

Raclare — 2008-04-17 16:02:29Z

Hello. Are you still in the Basque region? I went there in 1997 and before going looked for Suastegui in the on-line telephone book of Spain for any listings. None. Then I looked for Zuastegui and found one. Only one. In Hondarribia, not far from San Sebastian. I called the number and spoke to a woman who told me that her father had been adopted from an orphanage. The family that adopted him gave him that name; it was not the same as their surname. Her family knew of no others with the name Suastegui/Zuastegui.

There are at least two Cuban ex-pats living in Spain. Wilma Suastegui, a dentist, and a scientist, Angel Utset Suastegui.

The Ecuadorian post that you referred to cited an uncle who claimed that the name should be Suasti (not Sugaste), but I did find a Suastegui in Merida, very early - 1651. I looked at the actual record. He was the slave of an owner named Suasti. Further searching revealed that the Suasti had first been called Sugasti when he arrived in Yucatan. A Basque historian at Tumacacori mission in Arizona told me that the 'g' in Basque is very soft - almost inaudible. Spanish speakers did not realize it was there, so the priest would have entered the name Suasti instead of Sugasti. (the final i or e is entered more or less interchangeably in the records) The names in the Basque country would begin with Z, because S in Basque is 'palatalized', or carries a sound similar to 'sh' in English. But Z in peninsular Spanish is 'Theta', so Spanish speakers would naturally spell the name Suastegui to avoid it being called something like Thuastegui.

Are you from Guerrero? If you are, you are probably familiar with the name Uriostegui. I found the origin of that name in Guerrero - a Basque merchant named Urioste. His 'children' began by using that name, but at one point in time, in cofradia records, changed to Uriostegui. They were identified as mestizo, but I never found a record of a wife for the merchant. I did find his burial record, with a brief testamento. He never married and had no children. The first ones to take his name were probably left at his doorstep - expositos. There was a lot of that in those records.

In a book on Basque names by Michelena, it is stated that the suffix 'egui', or 'tegui' is somewhat obscure in meaning but often seems to imply possession or ownership. I found a prenuptial investigation at which my grgrgrandfather, Bartolome Suastegui, served as a witness. He gave his place of birth as Torin, a small indian pueblo on the Yaqui River in southern Sonora. This would have been in 1799. It was a big mystery - it was an old mission site. What was his family doing there? Yaquis did not want Spaniards settling on their land. Very touchy about that. Was he partly Yaqui? It seemed unlikely. Finally - pure luck - I found a document in the Archivo Franciscano recording the secularization of the Yaqui missions in 1795. The priest who was in charge of taking an inventory of their belongings and transferring ownership was assisted by the 'Teniente del Rio de Hiaqui, Don Jose Antonio Zuasti'. My grgrgrandfather gave the name of his father at the time of his marriage as Don Jose Antonio Suastegui. It has to be the same fellow. Why was the suffix added sometime between 1795 and the date of the marriage, 1829? There was a priest at Caborca, near where the marriage took place, whose name was Usoastegui. Did he convince them that they should use a similar form? Quien sabe!! For that matter, earliest records, including the marriage record, show my tatarabuelo as Bartolo Suastegui. Later he was always called Bartolome. Is it so different a modification? Perhaps in their minds, it was just a matter of making a name more formal.

I would love to hear about your trip and about anything you may learn. I visited the store of the Mogrobejos in Bilbao. I asked about why a family would change their name from Zuasti to Zuastegui. The reply was 'es lo mismo', referring I suppose to the meaning of the name. But if we were asked about the shift from Bartolo to Bartolome, might we not say about the same thing? Same name!

Re: Suastegui

eswrite — 2008-04-16 04:16:33Z

FWIW, 2 Suastegui´s, Miguel & Eduardo, appear as signatories of the 1868 Cuban declaration of independence. These 2 brothers appear to be descendants of the Yucatan, Mexico clan, which as you note apparently derive from "Suasti."

http://www.fiu.edu/~fcf/ecos.grito.yara97.html

However, there is also another clan from Ecuador that arrived at Suastegui from¨"Sugasti." See http://genforum.genealogy.com/ecuador/messages/206.html

Now, why anyone would turn these 2 fine last names into the more complicated Suastegui is beyond me. It doesn´t seem to make sense.

I am in the Basque region right now trying to see if any Suastegui´s come from here, and so far, no luck. Someone has suggested that alternative spellings such as Zuastegi, Suaztegi, Zuaxtegi and Suaxtegi may have been possible: there is no¨"gui" in the Basque language and they use Z´s and X´s liberally. However, there are plenty of Satrustegui´s and other "egui" surnames here, which leads me to believe that the spanisation of these names led to many changes along the way.

lalemans — 2007-12-14 01:37:58Z

My parents are from Guerrero...my dad told us that his father changed his last name for personal reasons...from Galeana to Alemán. It came to a surprise to me when I went to visit my relatives in Guerrero how a man told me to say hi to my father...he's my cousin he added. The funny thing was that this man's last name is Galeana and I asked my mother to explain which coincided with the story that my father told me later on.

Are you related to those Galeana?
