Hello all, my name is Lorenzo Carrillo, I'm from San Diego, ca and am one of the newest members of this site. I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce myself.

Lorenzo,
You are researching the same area's I am. Jerez, Tepetongo and Villanueva. Although, only two of the names you are researching are also those which I have found in my research. I have the surname of Reveles and, I have also found the name Avila as the possible wife to one of my ancestors. Both names comming from Villanueva.

Lorenzo, Welcome aboard the Genealogy Ship. Have to hand it to you, I wish I was as interested in my ancestors when I was your age. There will be some ups and some down's, but as you will soon find out, we are all primos in one way or another :) If I can be of any assistance, give me a ring. Jaime Gonzalez

Welcome Lorenzo!
We share a common trait. My grandfather and my mother were also genealogist and I was blessed
with the opportunity to start and continue on their research when I was 12. One learns so much
about themselves in genealogy; the people that make who you are, your blood. If you need any help
or questions feel free to email me, even if its guidance. mendezdelcamino@live.com
Regards,
Daniel Méndez Camino

Hello Alicia, my Carrillo family was from Jerez, nochistlan, rancho de Los Juarez and tepetongo, villanueva, and a few other places I don't know yet. I understand when you talk about elders.one My grandparents from Zacatecas passed away before I was bore I was born and my grandmother passed when I was seven. The only resource for stories and info I have left are my father and his siblings but it's alot better than nothing:) on my mothers side however, I have a set of great grandparents and one great grandmother who are into their 90s the set live here in San diego and my ggrandmother lives in Sacramento. Her husband( my great grandfather) lived to be 92 and the whole time we had him, NOBODY ASKED ABOUT HIS FAMILy. We made that error but I went out and bought a tape recorder yesterday to be able to get oral history going for my research.
New member introduction :)
Good luck Lorenzo,
You are on your way to becoming a great family historian and will make your
family very proud of your genealogical accomplishemnts.
I applaud you for beginning so young and with such zeal!
Alicia,
San Jose, Ca.

Lorenzo,
That's very commendable of you to search for your roots at a very young age.
Unfortunately some of us started too late and the elders in our family are no
longer around to tell their stories.
What part of Zacatecas was your family from, that will help us all to help you.
Alicia,
San Jose, Ca

Pregunta
Porque no se actualiza informacion en cada uno de los pueblos: Ejemplo en Nochistlan estan desde hace mucho tiempo informacion hasta 1887 y no hay nueva desde hace mucho tiempo.
Perdon por mi inorancia si es que no se como funciona eso.
