Heather, You recently requested some information from me regarding Manuel Meza. I replied but the e-mail message was returned to me. Here is a copy of that e-mail: Dear Heather, Thanks so much for reaching out. I wish I had a lot of information for you so that we could determine a definite connection, but I'm afraid I have very little. This is what I know about Manuel Meza: He was born in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico; perhaps in the city of Chihuahua but we are not certain nor can I find any record of his birth. Based on my grandfather's age I figure he may have been born between 1850 and 1860. He married Elisa Sosa who was from the state of Durango. We know of 5 children that they had together: Cornelio, Gabriel, Elisa (the only daughter), Rosendo (my grandfather) and Florentino. My mother (Celia Meza) and uncle (Ruben Meza) remember that there was a Juan Meza who was my grandfather's cousin but they do not recall who's son he may have been. Juan Meza married Concepcion and they had several children: Concepcion, Sylvia, Hector, Alberto, Juan Jr., Adolfo, Emma, Martha, and Bertha. Unfortunately, I have no other information. Many of Manuel's children and grandchildren left Mexico but I haven't been able to find out where they settled in the U.S. I hope this helps you in some way; even if we are not connected you can rule out this branch for your husband. Good luck in your search and let me know if I can be of further assistance. Regards, Leticia Bustos Meza
