The Garcia Family Home Page

I am researching the following lines:

~The Alaniz/Alanis, Benavides, Garcia names from around the Mier, Tamaulipias Mexico and South Eastern Texas area.

~The Hardin and Barnes names(with associated lines of Bess, Hill, Smith and Rhea?)from Tennessee and the Navarro County, Texas area.

~The Stewart name from Illinois and Tennessee to Dallas County and Navarro County, Texas.

~The Zornes name, decending from Martin Zornes and Catherine Stout.

~The Jarrett and Wooldridge names in and around Wright and Texas County Missouri.

Please feel free to browse my information and if you think we are related, need my help or have something to share or correct, contact me at the email or snailmail address below.

If you wish information on my Garcia, Alaniz/Alanis, John Barn/Barnes, Bess, Hill, Smith or Stewart connections, please contact me direct.

A special thanks to all of you (you know who you are, and there are many)who have helped me obtain the information that has made this site possible. Without your contributions and continuing support I would not have made it this far up any of the trees

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Happy Hunting~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
