My family name is Riesgo. We come from Sonora Mexico. My grandfather Alfonso Miguel Riesgo was born in 1896 and resided in San Miguel de Horcasitas, Sonora Mexico. Looking to trace back to Governor Juan Miguel Riesgo who was the first Governor of "El Estado de Occidente", Sonora & Sinaloa prior to seperating into two states back in 1824. He passed away on August 8, 1834. Any information on the Riesgo family from Sonora would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Raul Alfonso Riesgo rariesgo12@hotmail.com
