As I mention before that My father Miguel Gonzalez Esquivel and my mother Regina Villalba Esquivel live there in Terlingua Tejas a long time ago
I was born in Terlingua 1927--maybe somebody knew my parents
My mother used to tell us stories of what the happening in Terlingua during those years and that it was very hard years very poor

Wed (Villa De La mina in Terlingua) there is a video there of what Terlingua used to look then

If somebody is intersted get book
(Big Bend Country)Land of the Unexpected
by author (Kenneth B. Ragsdale) good reading.

In regards to the words you wrote in Spanish, Good Job --I give you a big A
God Bless

I have ordered the book for myself. I bought a copy for my cousin Luisa Madrid, but I had not ordered one for myself. But I should get my copy soon.

My aunt Petra Gonzales (daughter of Josefa Valenzuela) gave me a copy of Pat Ragsdale's first book Quicksilver, when it was first published many years ago. It tells a lot about her father, Felix Valenzuela and some about my other grandfather, Antonio Franco.

I have posted your information in such a way as to encourage people to contact you through the Family Discussions post "Esquivel Family Discussion Post." Let's see if anyone responds to you.

Thank you for your support.

Recent additions to the Esquivel page show "La Minita" as the birthplace of several of the children. Where is/was "La Minita"?
