Subject: Re: Yaqui Heritage? Author: Kathie = administrator [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 14:23:26 11/22/05 Tue Author Host/IP: 65-103-137-122.spkn.qwest.net/65.103.137.122 In reply to: Paulette Williams 's message, "Yaqui Heritage?" on 12:29:53 10/21/05 Fri Hi: You can look at the records available in Mexico by state online at the LDS site but you need to know from which state your people came. http://www.familysearch.org click on Library; click on Family History Library Catalog; choose place search; look for topics such as Native Races (Indians) and Church Records (marriages, baptisms and burials) You can input the name of the place you have on Place Search as part of Mexico and get a list of topics which will include the two above and you will most likely find parish records that will be useful. You can input the word Yaqui in your favorite browser and find several online articles about the Yaqui which tell from which Mexican state they came. If that state coincides with the names of the place your family had for its Mexico origin, well, you have an indication that your family might be Yaqui. Let me know how this goes for you.
