Notables =

    b) Martin is also Miguel Hidalgo's maternal side family member...

Some last names vascillate as it was the custom for women to sometimes use their grandmothers last names.  Truncation of last names also occured;such as the name of "Casillas" as is the "de la torre" family from los Altos de Jalisco...they would originally be "Casillas de la Torre", or synthisis like Gonzalez, de Hermosillo becomes Gonzalez de Hermosillo. Or Cabrera becomes "y Cabrera" or "de Cabrera."
