Hello,
I am looking for relatives of my grandmother Estanislada Martinez (Salazar) from Eagle Pass, Texas. She was born in New Braunfels, Texas on 5/17/23. My grandmother has always been very private about her life, but she gives us the impression that something very bad happened in her life, so she tries to forget about it and changes the subject. Her parents were (mom) Santos (Santitos) Salazar and (dad) Jose Felix Martinez. My mother recalls my grandmother talking about some siblings...Lucia, Guadalupe, Juan, Julian Martinez (U.S soldier (WWII)) and another sister which name we dont know, but used to be a nun with the group Hermanas Carmelitas Descalzas.
My grandmother onced told me that she was "given" to a man, who later became her husband, by her parents when she was 13-16 years old. They then moved to Piedras Negras, Coahuila Mexico where she had 3 children...Joaquina, Juanita (my mom) and Jose Felix. Since then all of us have asked my grandmother to please tell us about what happen d to her. But she says nothing. We are just desperate to know because my grandmother is 85 and we are afraid that she will pass away one day and we are going to always wonder if we have more family out there. My mom and her siblings don't know if they have any aunts, uncles, cousing! Please if you can help us with any information, I would really appreciate it.
Thank you for taking the time to read my posting. Please email me with any comments or questions.
My bests,
Veronica
