Hello everyone,

Soy descendiente de Alonso Velasco y de Ana Flores de la Torre, los dos residentes en Juchipila.

In my research, I have encountered a baptism record that indicates a child (possibly my 3rd G-grandfather) was abandoned at the house of a woman in Guadalajara in 1781.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Hello,
