  1. Doing research and came upon this blog. I am wondering if Cenobia Cantu had a sister named Porfiria Cantu and possibly a brother named Eutimio Cantu. Porfiria Cantu was my great great grandmother. I have not been able to locate parent names on her.

    1. My great grandfather's name was Eutimio Cantu, and his wife was Amalia Cantu. Do you think there is some relation here?
