After 67 years of wondering what to call myself, my family always refered to themselves as Spanish, I finally hit on the perfect description, I call myself a "New Mexican." This honors my Mexican, Indian, and Spanish heritage.
I am related to at least six of the Founding Families, maybe more, and have the distinction found in many old families in New Mexico of being my own cousin.
this list is incorrect
where is Ortiz and Baca?
