Fisher Family in New Mexico and Colorado

Laura, I am descended from Melquiades Fisher who's father was Robert.He had a brother named George who was born in Bents Fort CO but grew up in Taos NM.My research is sketchy at this point but he married Juana Martin(ez)in Trinidad CO in 1/1869.They had a son by the name of Carlos (Charles) born 11/1869.Apparently at some time Charles married a woman with the surname of Candelaria who had a son named Daniel.I have completely lost track of what happened to Charles but I have verified that George claimed a Daniel Candelaria as his adopted child in his will in Union County NM.I can't verify that Daniel used the name Fisher but this is too much coincidence.Please contact me if you think we might be from the same family.
