>From List Admin: Just passing info along... Dani -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.somosprimos.com/spapr02.htm SOMOS PRIMOS, April 2002 The April issue premeres the first of the new Surname Column series. This first column, recognizes Jose Cisneros who recently received a National Humanities Medal from President Bush. Mr. Cisneros of El Paso is being honored for his multiple contribution to the field of fine arts and historical southwest art. In the months ahead the surname column will be written about either the surname of a national figure with that surname, OR a successful researcher who has traced family roots back into the colonial period. I would like to include visuals with each of the surnames article. Many of us are beginning to organize family data. In this issue John Schmal (our historian) has collaborated with Donna Morales on "The Dominguez Family of Kansas City: An American Experience," to tell the unique story of one Mexican-American family. In addition, Jennifer Vo and John Schmal have collaborated to tell the story of a ten-generation California family, starting with the soldier, Juan Matias Olivas. You'll find that in both writings, the families stories are told within the framework of the historical time period, enriching the readers' historical understanding. We continue to attract interest and support from Mexican researchers. You'll find under Mexico, a listing of researchers willing to give assistance, new book information and also the very interesting article, Las Haciendas, by Lic. Jose Alfredo Villegas Galvan, the Director of the Archivo Historico Del Estado San Luis Potosi. In addition to giving the location and founder(s), other kinds of nformation is given, such as how the land was used, and recent ownership. The lead article concerns the efforts of the Daughters and Sons of the Revolution to expand awareness of the Spanish contributions to the American Revolution and our history of involvement in that effort. Remember to click on all those websites gathered by Johanna de Soto. They are treasures. . . open them up and enjoy. For a humorous, (irreverent) overview of Hispanic history, look at the last article in Miscellaneous.

It has only been in the last couple of years that I have looked into designing a family coat of arms for my branch of the Morales surname. I will tell you that I have played with many different designs but have not come up with one that my family and I all can agree on. “Decision and action by committee is a slow and arduous path”! :-) I can only provide information and links to sites that can better inform people about learning more about heraldry. These links can address your questions and provide you with more detailed information. Let me know if this helps...

I was under the assumption that it was a European thing that was awarded to a particular family for some act of bravery or something like that. And by European, I mean England, Spain, France, and other countries that awarded families these type of things. Us Americans are pretty ignorant when it comes to heraldry and coat of arms, for the most part, and so I did a little bit of reading up on them. Anyways, if I am totally wrong, then please school me (and those who subscribe to Morales-L@Rootsweb.com) in the ways of Coat of Arms designing. : ) Thanks! Dani

Only the original owner (and their direct blood decedents) for which the coat of arms was designed and issued to can use the coat of arms. The rules of heraldry are very clear about this. You can design your own coat of arms using some of the designs and elements of the original coat of arms of the first Morales. There are many associations that will help you in designing you a heraldry heirloom that reflects our proud name. If you are serious about your family roots and history then you will be serious in its heraldry too. Hope this helps you - happy searching. http://www.waltermorales.net/family.htm http://www.caller2.com/autoconv/laonda99/laonda50.html

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Morales, Garcia, Figueroa Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/jI2.2ACIB/324 Message Board Post: Do you have information in regards to Frank Morales born abt 189? from Mexico who lived in Tucson, AZ around 1910 - 1920? Married Elvira Garcia of Mexico and had a daughter by the name of Fransisca Morales born 9-25-1911 in Tucson, AZ. Frank and Elvira were both killed by a streetcar/trolley/bus when Fransisca was young. Fransisca is my grandmother who died when my father was 6 in 1940. So there is no information about this family and would like to know if there are any possible links to this story.
