Hi,

that's so cool! Unfortunately I don't have any information beyond what I was given by my grandmother, Celia Tijerina. Her records from the Tijerina family only take me back to Blas Maria de la Garza Falcon and the rest I've got off of the internet. I have a few notes too:

Pablo Garza and Celia Tijerina were married on Sept. 21, 1947. They had four children that were born and raised in Raymondville, Texas. They are Graciela Garza(my mother), Irma Garza, Saul Garza and Pablo Garza Jr.

Celia Tijerina was born in Brownsville, Texas in 1920. The family moved to the grandparent's Galvez ranch outside of Rio Hondo. There she grew up with her two brothers and two sisters. She attended the rural school of Las Yescas until the ninth grade when she was pulled out of school to work. Grandfather Antonio Galvez diveded up his land and gave the Tijerina's some acres. This ranch was called "San Vicente" and it is just east of Rio Hondo, Texas. The family cemetery also across the highway from were San Vicente used to be. Many family ancestors are buried there.
