I am looking for any information for my father-in-law. He left his parents' home when young and went to Texas. His father's name was Antonio Alaniz, and apparently he owned a store, and was fairly well off. Rafael's mother died when he was young, and Antionio married a younger woman, only about 8 or 9 years older than Rafael. When Rafael left home (about 14 or 15 years old, I believe) he never saw his father again. We do not know if he is still living, but his store would have been near Tampico. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it. Thanks, Debra
