I have just posted in my Dropbox account several handwritten pages of selected extractions of the earliest Pinos parish baptism entries. This rough draft was meant to be a quick reference guide, so I only listed the year, child, father, mother and godparents. I have not proofread them. Later this year I hope to provide more Pinos data which will include the actual dates. In the interim this may help someone.

There are six pages, but somehow page 2 was missed. I'll let you know when it gets posted. Also, page 5 is very faint. Will try to correct it, but don't want to hold this up.

I've just uploaded selected extractions made during my first visit to Pinos in 1994. These are raw notes and at times a bit challenging to decipher, but they are worth the effort. There are confirmation, baptism, marriage and death records taken from UNFILMED books dating from 1614. See my Dropbox folder: Pinos Extractions 1994 25 Pages.

Baptisms and deaths. I did these in 1996 during my second and last trip to Pinos, Zacatecas. The 15 pages of baptism extractions were taken from Book 1, Part 2. The 4 pages of death records were separate. Toward the end of the day my handwriting was quite desperate as time ran out. I didn’t want to stop. I am indebted to the late Ricardo Acosta Gomez, who very generously allowed me access to those precious documents. See Dropbox folder: Pinos Extractions 1996 19 Pages.

My roots are solidly Los Altos; specifically Jalostotitlan. But branches of my family tree are in San Luis Potosi, Ojuelos and Pinos. So glad these notes are helping you.

Last year I tried to go to Pinos to look at the records but too many cousins to visit in San Luis Potosi.

So glad you made it to Pinos and are generously sharing your hardwork. I wish I had known you 1996, I went many times to San Luis during this time period, and I could have learned from a master!! Oops, with your records, I am! Thanks.
