Editorial Note: On Monday, 09 Aug 2010 19:17:57 Virginia Benavidez posted on the discussion page "Discuss Any Family" that she belonged to the Hinojos Family. She gave us information on her mother, Petra Acosta Benavidez, her grandmother, Isabel Hinojos Acosta, and connecting her to the family of Macario Hinojos, Sr. and his wife, Severiana Alvarado. This was during the time we had taken time off after a year of intense work on this site. We are just now updating the site on a part-time basis, but we are happy to add those pages for her family.
Interestingly, on Tue, 16 Nov 2010 22:43:58 Selma posted "Hello: Macario Hinojos was my grandfather, on "Discuss Any Topic You Want." She was looking to see more about his life in Lajitas, Texas.
The stated policy of Familias de Terlingua is respect. We do not intend to speak ill of anyone. You can find our policies on the page " About Us." We collect information with respect and use it to connect people with respect. So we contacted Selma offering to print any information to fill the bare bones of information from documents and newspaper clippings. It was a warm exchange and we look forward to receiving more information to fill the pages of the greater Hinojos family.
Interestingly, it turns out that Selma's grandfather, Macario Hinojos Jr. was the older brother of Virginia Benavidez grandmother, Isabel Hinojos Acosta. We also contacted Virginia and invited her to share information, photos, and memories with us all. We have added pages for the Hinojos family; and expect to update it with any information, memories, and photos that we expect they will share with us all.
