  • Biografía Apresurada Del Lanzaroteño Juan Leal Goraz, En El Aniversario De La Fundación De San Antonio De Tejas (1731-2006)
    BIOGRAFÍA APRESURADA DEL LANZAROTEÑO JUAN LEAL GORAZ, EN EL ANIVERSARIO DE LA FUNDACIÓN DE SAN ANTONIO DE TEJAS (1731-2006) MANUEL A. FARIÑA GONZÁLEZ A partir del estudio de la familia de Juan Leal Goraz, en la que debemos in- cluir también a sus hijos casados: Juan Leal, El Mozo, y José Leal, procedentes del pago de San Bartolomé de Lanzarote; pretendemos adentrarnos en el conoci- miento histórico-cultural de la insospechada experiencia vivida por este grupo de colonos canarios en su largo recorrido hasta llegar al extremo norte de la Pro- vincia de Texas y Nuevas Filipinas. La ruta que se inició en Lanzarote les obligó a pasar por el puerto de Santa Cruz de Tenerife - San Cristóbal de La Habana - Veracruz - Méjico (capital del Virreinato de Nueva España) - El Saltillo - Mon- clova - hasta finalizar su camino en las cercanías del presidio militar de San An- tonio de Béjar, en la frontera política del norte del Virreinato. Aun a costa de ím- probos esfuerzos, y sorprendentemente con escasas bajas personales, procedieron al exacto cumplimiento del Real Decreto del año 1729, promulgado en San Ildefonso (Segovia), mediante el cual se les encargaba oficialmente la fundación de la nueva Villa de San Antonio de Béjar. Una vez consolidada la fundación y el consiguiente reparto de terrenos, de- bemos tener en cuenta que, hasta la primera mitad del siglo XIX, fueron canarios todos aquellos que ocuparon el cargo de Alcalde Mayor o presidente electo del Cabildo de San Antonio de Tejas. La lista se inició con el citado Juan Leal Go- raz quien, al igual que el resto de sus compatriotas, impulsó determinadas políti- cas de alianzas y de matrimonios entre las familias isleñas, lo cual les permitiría mantener el control político y social de la comunidad establecida desde el mes de marzo de 1731.

  • Families of General Teran, Nuevo Leon, Mexico Volume Four (1842-1850) 2Nd Edition by [email protected]
    Families of General Teran, Nuevo Leon Mexico Volume Four 2nd Edition By [email protected] April 2014 Crispin Rendon 3430 Bahia Place Riverside, CA 92507 Families of General Teran, Nuevo Leon, Mexico Volume Four (1842-1850) 2nd Edition By [email protected] You might assume that I have ancestors from Valle de la Mota, now named General Teran. I don't. So why did I create a 16 volume family series, from there, spanning a period of over 100 years? It all started with an article published in the Los Bexarenos Genealogical Register Volume XXVII. The article was about Jose Lucas Rodriguez who married five times and fathered over 30 children in General Teran. I looked at a bunch of marriage records as I researched that article and the idea came to me that I would have to look at the same records again and again. This is a common routine with genealogy research. You check the records for one family and then check the same records for another family. Sounds easy enough until you find some records that are difficult to read. You take the time to read them all for each new search. It is so much nicer to reach for a book that has every marriage. Why stop there? Place each family in the context of where they fit in the big picture puzzle. Give the image number for the marriage for easy online access. That was my big ideal. The original volume one was well received and led to volume two and so on ending with volume sixteen.

    Tricentennial Chronology And The Founding Events In The History of San Antonio And Bexar County by Robert Garcia Jr. Hector J. Cardenas and Dr. Amy Jo Baker San Antonio, Texas March 2018 i i Tricentennial Chronology And The Founding Events In The History of San Antonio And Bexar County By Robert Garcia Jr. Hector J. Cardenas and Dr. Amy Jo Baker Published by Paso de la Conquista San Antonio, Texas Mar. 2018 i Library of Congress Control Number: 2018934169 Published: Feb, 2018 San Antonio, Texas Copyright Pending. Outside Cover of Mission San José: public domain ii Introduction In 2015, San Antonio’s Tricentennial Commission created the opportunity for the citizens of San Antonio to rediscover their shared cultural heritage, history and to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the founding of our beloved City in 1718. Collaboratives were formed with public institutions to further develop presentations commemorating our City’s history. Many months were spent on these projects and in the year 2018, they will be presented to the public in open venues. An out-come of this year’s celebration is this publication, “Tricentennial Chronology and The Founding Events In The History of San Antonio And Bexar County”. The last published chronology of San Antonio was in 1950 by Edward Hunsinger. For this new study, approximately 1½ years was spent developing additional details and entries of events in San Antonio’s 300-year history. Other chronologies were studied, books were referenced and honored historians were consulted. Every attempt was made to edit and re-edit the many editions of the chronology until this latest edition is being published.
