Hello,
I am researching my husband's ancestors. In speaking with my father-in-law, Raul Diaz Nunez, he told me that his Grandmother's family name was ESQUIVEL. From what can I recall, Raul's Mom's birth name was ELENA ESQUIVEL DIAZ (1907-1969). Elena married Jesus Cardenas Nunez (1905-1992). Elena & Jesus came to California around 1930. Elena's Mom's birth name was MICAELA ESQUIVEL. I believe that Elena had a brother named ESTEVAN ESQUIVEL, Esteban Esquibel could be Micaela's father's name also. My father-in-law said that at one time, at least Micaela & Elena, lived on some sort of TARASCAN Indian Reservation, in MICHOACAN. I may have some of the names confused, of course I can't find my notes right now. I recall the cities of PATAMBAN & ZAMORA coming up in the conversation as well. Any info. and/or tips for further research are welcomed and greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Darci Gibbs-Nunez
