Hi Maria,

If you have time……would you please look up the surname “LIENDO” and sometimes it was spelled “LIENDRO”……..I am at a big roadblock with this surname in Zacatecas in the late 1600s

Hi Maria,

If you have time……would you please look up the surname “LIENDO” and sometimes it was spelled “LIENDRO”……..I am at a big roadblock with this surname in Zacatecas in the late 1600s and the 1700s. From Zacatecas they went on to Saltillo but I am needing anything in Zacatecas that I can find……Thanks, Maria…….you are so generous!

Hugs,

Josie
