Family Origins at the Hacienda


I always knew our family had its roots in Old Mexico, but I never knew until the last two weeks before Dad passed away that our grandfather was born at Hacienda Trancoso, located in Guadalupe, Zacatecas. I found an old baptismal certificate that may be his dated 1870, but from what I gathered in other talks and doing the math, he would have been born in 1868. This place is now a museum, and later I have a story to relate about this place. Just enjoy looking at it, since it's part of the very distant past and the sight of a place where our grandfather or great-great grandfather played in.
