  • Introduction of Cecilia Placencia
Por placencia1999 | Dom, 18/07/2010 - 23:30

Hello all,
 I am Cecilia Placencia.  My father, Nicolas Placencia, was born in San Francisco de los Sotoles, Jalisco, Mexico in 1943.  He and his parents, Andres Placencia and Maria Salvadora Marquez, along with his paternal grandparents, Filomeno Placencia and Soledad Romero, moved to Juarez, Chihuahua in the early 1950’s.  The move was prompted by the drying of “el ojo de agua” in San Francisco de los Sotoles, Jalisco.   Andres moved his family in 1952 to El Paso, TX, having been sponsored through the “Brazeros” program.  Both Andres and Nicolas died in El Paso in 1985 and 1994 respectively.   
Filomeno Placencia was said to have been born in Santa Ines, Jalisco, Mexico in about 1894.  I believe this “congregation” was part of the municipality of Huejucar, Jalisco.  His parents were Roman Placencia and Benigna Galvez, both of whom I believe would have been born about 1865.  I am not sure where either of them would have been born.  I think Benigna may have been from San Francisco de los Sotoles, Jalisco, as there is a large representation of Galvez’s in the 1930 Mexican Census.  In addition, I recall growing up in El Paso with many Galvez’s at family gatherings.  Also, in about 1986 or 87 I attended a family reunion in “las fincas” of San Francisco de los Sotoles, Jalisco.  It was called “Reunion Familiar Galvez”.  The instrumental organizer was a Galvez.  I can’t recall his name, but his father was Ricardo Galvez, who lived in EL Paso, TX.  I remember being asked to interview people at the gathering in an effort  to
create a family tree.  I was in high school at the time and don’t know if anything became of those efforts. 
I am looking for imformation on Roman and Benigna.  I was able to find four of their sons in the 1930’s Mexican census.  This confirmed information that was given to me by my great-aunt, daughter of Filomeno and sister of Andres.   The sons I was able to locate were Filomeno, Raul, Rafael and Rosalio.  They were living in San Francisco de los Sotoles, Jalisco at the time of the 1930 Census.  A fith,  son Luciano, I believe, died prior to the census, but his widow, Maria Guadalupe Delgado lived in San Francisco de los Sotoles, Jalisco at the time of the 1930 Census.
 
Thank you.
 
Sincerely,
CP
