Last Names of Nuevo Leon

I love books and in this post, I present Four Books To Help You Get Started In Your Mexican Ancestry Search. These four books are focused on Mexican Research and or providing resources to help you find your ancestors.

In my opinion, I think that these four books are essential to doing Mexican Genealogy.

The following books will give you a solid foundation to start your Mexican Ancestry search. All four are available at Amazon.com. Remember to check your local library to see if they have a copy that way you won’t have to buy them.

The first book that I want to mention to you is mine. I wrote it so that you could have a choice if you only want to look for your ancestors using the internet.
