In this post, I share with you a great presentation that will help you trace ancestors through revolutionary Mexico. It is full of great information, recommendations, and tips.
Once a month I feature a presentation that is available on Las Villas del Norte (the official premium genealogy group for our Mexican genealogy community). These presentations have a focus on researching Mexico or are about methodology that can be applied to researching our Mexican and Spanish Colonial Ancestry.
This month's presentation that I want to make you aware of is that of professional genealogist Lisa Medina and it is titled "Tracing Ancestors through Revolutionary Mexico".
The summary of the presentation is: "Listen to the story of Atala Apodaca Anaya and her achievements as a female revolutionary during the early 20th century, as well as those of other lesser known figures from the Revolución Mexicana. Learn about sources and methodologies for tracing your own ancestors in revolutionary Mexico."
This presentation provides a great wealth of knowledge on how to trace ancestors through revolutionary Mexico.
The following topics are discussed:
- People, places and timeline
- Causes of the Revolution
- Impact and legacy
- Story of Atala Apodaca + Others
- Repositories and Resources
