Hi Everyone, I didn’t see my first two posts here, I’m sure I’m doing something wrong. I did get a reply ( Gracias Jorge !) but have not seen my posts show up here…forgive me, I’m a rookie. First I’d like to thank Joseph for allowing me to join the site. My name is Robert Gonzalez, my area of research is Los Altos de Jalisco, specifically, Tepatitlan and “La Villa” San Jose De Basarte. My father and grandfather were born in La Villa SJB. My Great Grandfather, Gregorio Gonzalez is buried beneath the alter of the small church capilla there. I also have records of my great,great grandfather and some other family members but have hit a wall. Ultimatley I’d like to take my research all the way back to Spain to find out where my family line started. Names I’d like to research are Gonzalez, Casillas and Alonso. It seems that for at least two generations, the Gonzalez line married into the Casillas line. Any info on San Jose de Basarte would be greatly appreciated, I do have some minor info in regards to the history of La Villa but not enough to satisfy my curiosity. Thank you all, I look forward to sharing info with all of you, Robert Gonzalez ~
