Haven’t made the jump to Mexico yet, this presentation will provide you with American Genealogical Resources to help you trace your ancestors back to Mexico or its Spanish Colonial period. You will learn about websites and record sets that are vital for Mexican American genealogy research. Our speaker will be Moises Garza.

Moises’s passion for genealogy started in the cotton fields of west Texas. As a migrant worker he was blessed to work in the fields next to his father, Lauro Garza, who had a sharp memory and told countless stories about his own ancestors. He has been doing genealogy since 1998 and has helped countless others in their own quest to find their ancestors. Today, he continues with this passion by publishing and creating resources to help you in your own search.
