Conquista del Reino de Nueva Galicia en la América Septrentrional

By MariaCortez | Fri, 2006-11-10 10:48
Genealogy Research

The Library of Congress has a lot of documents, books and manuscripts on their website. One manuscript of particular interest to this group is the title in my subject line, written by Mexican lawyer, Matias de la Mota Padilla in 1742. It is hand-written, but very legible. It contains a lot of names of people and places dating from the Conquest to 1742 in Nueva Galicia. The link to the Library of Congress is already in the links section. You can find the book by clicking on "Collections" and then browsing through the list of Selections from the National Library of Spain.

Just a little Mexican musical history lesson for you...if you are interested in this music, you can refer to my two sites, www.elsondelpueblo.com or www.gruposolymar.net. John Robles

John,

Too bad I didn't know you were in this group sooner. I have heard it advertised on the radio here in San Jose and not knowing what type of musical instruments or type of music, I never gave it a thought. The next time you are going to be in the San Jose area, please do let us know so we can come to your performance and hopefully meet up with you.

African Influenced Music in Mexico

From: john robles john9ten@pacbell.net

That is a subject that interests me, as although I have never mentioned it here before, I play arpa jarocha, the folk harp from Veracruz, Mexico, and the music from that region, the son jarocho, has a heavy African influence in the rhythm, certainly, but most pointedly in the singing style. Traditional son jarocho

Foods from Africa, Burt Wolf Travels

By oldcar53 | Thu, 2006-11-02 20:15

Yesterday while mostly listening to the TV on my local PBS, Burt Wolf had a segment on the food and people migrations from Africa and the impact they had on the Americas. I found it extremely interesting considering that some of the foods mentioned such as yams, peanuts, bananas and watermelon are still some of the main staples of both the Mexican and American diets.
