They were my great grandparents. I will send the information to you when I return from my trip. I do not have the time today to send it. Sorry. I hope I can help you. Just as starters, Juan's parents were: Antonio Severino Chaves b. 1823 Santa Fe, NM and Maria Candelaria Gonzales b 1844 near Ojo Caliente, NM. Juan Andres was born in 1859 in Costilla, NM and died in 1944 in Del Norte, Co, One of their daughters was Maria Placida,my grandmother.
