(note: The Sedillo family descends from Gregorio Sedillo - Inez Chavez family of Cantaresio, Paraje and Canada Alamosa of the 1880s. The Ramos family descends from Roque Ramos - Josefa Avila Gutierrez of Monticello. My grandfather, Roque Ramos was brought from Sonora, Mexico to the Ojo Caliente area of Canada Alamosa by his Apache captors in about 1866. In the early 1880s he married Josefa Avila Gutierrez the daughter of Jose Rafael Gutierrez and Teodora Avila of Paraje in Sierra County.) ************************************************************************* A message from Sam-Quito Padilla G. at: samquito@nmia.com NM Death Index Project.
