Hello Loretta Garcia,
My name is also Loretta Garcia, and a lady named Dottie
Moss has left some information for you at my name.This is the 1st email she sent me:
Hi Loretta,
Greetings from Kansas.I left a message on your phone tonight.I got your name from my Uncle Jack (Jacobo) Vela and also from Felipe Salinas who told me you have done quite a bit of genealogical research on our family.
My name is Dottie Moss.My Mom is Maria Angelina Vela, daughter of Manuel Vela and Crisanta Florentina Guerra who is a ggranddaughter of Noah Cox and Rosaura Barrera.I am a Sister of St. Joseph here in Concordia, Kansas.
I'm a rookie in terms of genealogy.Made my 1st trip to Austin this past summer to do some research of sacramental records of Rio Grande and Roma at the Catholic Archives in Austin.Also found my great grandparents on the
Vela side, Luis Vela and Ygnacia Saenz.
Any information on our family you are willing to share via email or otherwise, I'd be most grateful for.Thanks for all you've done.
Do you happen to have any info on parents, grandparents of Noah Cox and Rosaura Barrera?
Gracias!and good luck on your current work,
Dottie Moss
This is what I answered:
Hello, I received your e-mail and I am certainly happy to help.Give me alittle time to research some thing, and I can get back to you.I will be happy to research this for you and send you what I find and where I found it.
Loretta
This was her second e-mail.
Hi Loretta,
Thanks in advance for whatever you have already on the
Cox-Barrera line and on both of their ancestors.
I'm actually wondering if you would be willing to coach
me so I could learn how to do genealogy.Could I call
or email you once or twice a month with questions?
I'm wondering if you have found some good genealogy
forms which have room for sibblings with spouses, etc.
In the 1860 federal census for Roma, I found a Rosaura Barrera
(age 24) and maybe your ggrandmother Rosa (age 8)
and Virginia (age 1), but also a Guillermo (age 7).Noah Cox
is not listed with them at the time.Maybe he was working in
Mexico?
How long have you been doing genealogy?Is there a computer
program you have found you really like to input your research?
Thanks again in advance for your help.
Dottie
Hope that this informations helps to to get your family answers.
Good Luck.
Loretta R. Garcia
