Maria Medrano, NL Mexico, Poteet and San Antonio (Texas)
I am trying to find out if I have native american heritage via my great-great grandmother, Maria Medrano. I would also like to find long lost relatives. She lived in Poteet, Texas and died in San Antonio, Texas.She was born probably in Nuevo Leon, Mexico in 1860-1870s timeframe.Her husband was Juan De Leon/Deleon Garza and he was born in Monterrey Nuevo Leon. Maria Medrano had one brother named Ernesto Medrano.Juan and Maria had 13 kids and their youngest daughter, Maria Deleon Basaldua, is my grandmother. Her husband was Jesus Gonzalez Basaldua and they are both buried in San Antonio. Any information about a Native American or possible family link is greatly appreciated.There is a story that has been passed down that my great grandmother Maria Medrano was Cherokee.
