This journal is a good one. This is what you will find in this quarter's issue:
* "Esquipula Fresquez: A Private in Company E, New Mexico Cavalry" by Virginia Sanchez. From the article: "On November 20 [1861], twenty-three year old Esquipula Fresquez from El Llano Precinct in Peñasco, enlisted from an average three-month term in the New Mexico First Militia Infantry Regiment under Lt. Colonel Diego Archuleta and Captain Gabriel Vigil." The article includes copies of the muster roll cards for this soldier and a list of descendants going back four generations.
* "Francisco Martin - Civil War Soldier: When a Pension Application tells a Family Story" by Nancy Anderson and Patricia Sanchez Rau. From the article: "Francisco Martin, also known as Francisco Martinez, as born on February 20, 1840, in Taos, New Mexico, the son of Jose Dolores Martin and Teodora Candelaria. Not much is known about his ealy life, but at some point before 1862, the family moved to Las Animas County, Colorado." The article includes a transcription of a Pension Investigation. The outcome of that application has a "surprise twist" at the end.
* "Richard Yeaman (1834-1875), His Life and Travels" by William A. Quiqley (aGGNephew). This is a story of a Canadian family that joined the LDS church, moved to Illinois and were part of the forced exodus from Nauvoo. By 1860, Richard Yeaman went to California and became a miner. Later, he joined the Union Army and became part of the California Column that came to New Mexico.
* "Maria Josefa Maese: Mescalero Rescate" by John H. Gallegos. From the article: "This research paper will chronicle teh amazing rescue of a Mescalero Apache infant from certain death during a raid on a Native American encampment in the Casas Grandes area of the northern Mexican state of Chihuahua in the later part of the 19th century." The article includes an oral history and a genealogy.
* "The Continuing Saga of Jose Mateo Sandoval" by Nancy Anderson. This is a continuation of an article that Nancy wrote for the March 20102 New Mexico Genealogist. This article includes a listing of descendants and other information on 6 of the children mentioned in the March 2012 article.
