HGRC Presentation - Dr. Claire Ortiz Hill

I usually don't post program announcements on this site from groups that have not asked me to post. However, I found that this program put on by the Hispanic Genealogical Research Center of New Mexico, seems interesting. So, I'm posting it here.

From their website:



May 8, 2010

Speaker:


Dr. Claire Ortiz Hill

Topic


"Manuel Francisco Delgado's Paternal Ancestors (1574-1766)"



Dr. Claire Ortiz Hill holds degrees in Philosophy and Comparative Literature from the University of California and the Sorbonne and has published several books and numerous articles. She is from the Ortiz and Delgado families of Santa Fe. Her website devoted to New Mexico genealogy is called Rancho Pancho. It can be visited at http://pagesperso-orange.fr/rancho.pancho For the past several years she has been going to Almeria, Spain to research the origins of the New Mexico Delgados in the Archivo Historico Provincial. For over 25 years she has been a religious hermit with the Archdiocese of Paris, France.


Hope to see you at the May meeting.


The program will be at Botts Hall, at the Special Collections Library, 423 Central Ave NE, Albuquerque, New Mexico at 10:30 AM. For more information, go to their website at http://hgrc-nm.org.
