Hi,
Someone recently joined who is researching surnames I am also researching.
Their message was in Spanish, so I hope they get the gist of this message.
I wanted to reply to them that I am also researching the Rivera and Martin
del Campo surnames in Jalisco. I have lots of records from births,
baptisms, marriages, etc. from Guadalajara, primarily for the 1800's. My
file title on this site, Nuestros Ranchos, does not mention the surname
Rivera, but if you look under my name, Corrine Ardoin, you will find a
family tree that contains these ancestors. My mother's great-grandmother
was Rita Robles Rivera, born about 1851 in Guadalajara. Rita's parent's
were Emigdio Robles and Manuela Rivera. They were married February 5,
1843. Manuela's parents were Alejo Rivera and Dolores Mora. They resided in
Guadalajara and attended the Sanctuario de Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe
Church. Manuela lived to be over 100 and died in the early 1900's. Rita
died in 1935.
This has brought up something else. I have so much "might be related" data
accumulated. Is there some way to make this available to other members? I
get a microfilm, record every entry that has the surname I am researching,
then it just sits in a folder. I would like to be able to share the data
with others, so perhaps they might find info there they could use. Such as
the surname Rivera. I have a lot of records with that surname, because it
is of my ancestors. But all of these records contain many, many other
surnames. How can I make this available to other members? I asked the
family history center where I live about getting all of this on the IGI, but
they said it is done only by church members who have submitted their family
trees. How do the rest of us make our research available where it does not
coincide with our own family trees, but may be useful to others?

Rivera and Martin Del Campo Surnames
Corrine,
It would be great if you could transcribe your Rivera, etc. information into a Word file or Excel file and upload it to Rootsweb.com, to share with the world, then you could send a link to that file to Arturo at Nuestros Ranchos and he could add the file for use by our group.
I transcribed an old Mesilla, New Mexico census for 1843 for Rootsweb for those who had ancestors originating there. I also transcribed the 1860 census for El Paso County, TX for Rootsweb.
Joseph also has a group site called "Ciudad Chihuahua" on Yahoo where he originally had the Nuestros Ranchos site. The Ciudad Chihuahua site is really for Paso del Norte which is now Juarez, El Paso Valley, and Southern New Mexico.
