    Best genealogy moment A few months ago in a myspace group, genealogy came up in topic. Turns out the moderator is a cousin. Strange.
    Hobbies Genealogy of course, but that is a winter time hobby /obsession that I do when the snow flies, at 8,000 foot altitude it snows a lot.
    Art! Stained Glass, Airbrushing, Fabric, Beading and restoring my vintage travel trailer.
    Music Anything Live! Classic Rock, Blues, Contemp Country, New Rock, Spontaneous jam sessions!
    Books NM authors writing about NM. Historical accounts that include our ancestors. Old local folklore. Northern New Mexico paranormal that includes the San Luis Valley of NM/CO. Art books.
    TV Not much time for TV but when I do it's usually Discovery Channel. Love those Deadliest Catch Guys! I have gotten hooked on Greys Anatomy and idol.

    Hello fellow genealogy seekers!

    Good to be here. Hope to get to know you over time.

    Here I go again. Another genealogy gig. And it's summer! I usually regulate myself to research during the winter and take a break in the summer. But I couldn't resist signing on to this site once found.

    I've listed most of the surnames in my lines.  If we make a connection give me a shout.

    My problem brickwall area is New England and Canada.  Names of Brown, Harvey, Ledwith, Brooks & DeRuisseau (sp?)

    I'm located in Northern New Mexico (Taos County), I can offer help  to someone seeking in this area.

    Since it's summer I won't be researching much but when the snow flies I'll be back at it.

    Have a great week!

    Hi Jeannie

    I am doing some research on the area of Abiquiu New Mexico and the Taos Valley area. I am curious about that area, the people who lived there in the early 1700's, mostly Spanish I believe but also some Spanish/Indian mix families. My interest stems from the following story I have come across in my family searching. I have quite a bit of info on most of the families but am still doing some searching. I would like more info on the land and all the people of that time , not just those I connect with. Any suggestions for reading material or places I can visit online would be much appriciated! Looke forward to any help you may be able to give...!





    In some sources the name can be found as de Torres and in some it is just Torres. Jacinta Maria Torres was captured by Comanches in her parents ,Marcial Torres, home in Taos Valley New Mexico on 8/4/1760 along with her daughter and several other women and children in the household. Several of the male family members were killed in this raid. It seems that the surviving family members believed the captives to be dead, and possibly the captives thought that all the family were killed as it appears that Jacinta may have never contacted her family after she was brought to Arkansas and sold to the man she married. Of course as we have learned through history she may have known she would not be well recieved after being an indian captive and chose not to try to contact her family. According to info we have compiled She was previously married to Julian Jaques in New Mexico who was killed during the raid. They had a daughter Francisca Jaques who was captured with her mother but nothing is known about what happened to her.

    Hello,



    I noticed you have Pettigrew as a sirname. My Great-Great Grandmother was Catherine C. PETTIGREW - b. 1839 Crawford Co., PA d. 1902 Pierpoint, Ashtabula Co., OH m. 1858 July 01 to Alexander McQuiston EAKIN b. 1836 Barkeyville, PA d. 1864 City Point, VA. I am wondering if you have any information of Catherine? Catherine had two daughters that I know of. I don't know her parents. Any help you can give me would be great.



    Thanks
