I am from NM. I moved with my family in 1970 to Alamogordo, then in 1972 we moved to Albuquerque. My grandparents moved to Albuq in the '50's. I married a NM native with roots in NM as far back as 1724 (so far). I'm searching his family for my children. The surnames are LAYCOCK (Civil War, Ft. Bascom), FAJARDO, PADILLA, ROMERO, MIRANDA and more. The area of Dona Ana, Socorro and McKinley counties. Chery Smith
