Here is a picture of my Grandmother Refugia 'Cuca' Torrez Martinez ,
Granddaughter to Victoria Estrada Sanchez, Daughter to Reyes Sanchez Torrez and Francisca Rodriguez , wife to Jesus Martinez.
I am uncertain of when it was taken, but my guess is 1927 since Joe looks about 3mos old. the photo to the far right is one of her and her children Francis, Joe on her lap and Louise to the right.

Bictoria Estrada Sanchez Torrez, Reyes Sanchez Torres, Juan Sanchez



I would like to share some pictures of family members that I recently acquired from other family members. I set up this site for invitation only and it is not listed to the public. This way everyone can see pics and if they like they can copy them for their personal records. I do not want to leave anyone out and will add e-mail addresses as I get them and I believe other Contributors can add addresses and photos as well. I will also add some historical information related to time and place, ie: El Paso, Texas and or Mexico circa late 1800's early 1900's which I think relates to our family. PLEASE feel free to post your pictures, stories and events.
