    Married Type: cannot locate a marriage record 
    • CORRECT FATHER OF RAMONA ALVITRE:
      - UNSUBSTANTIATED but MOST LIKELY Jose Antonio Alvitre, son of Juan Alvitre and Tomasa Alvarado, is the father of Ramona ALVITRE.
      - Ramona's Msn. S.G. 1850 confirmation record: father listed as Antonio.
      - Ramona uses the last name of Alvitre in all her children's baptisms.
      Therefore, her father's name must be Antonio Alvitre.
      There were three Antonio Alvitre's living in L.A. at the time of Ramona's birth in between 1841-1843.
      - 1. Jose Antonio Alvitre, b. 1803 married to Concepcion Amesquita
      - 2. Jose Antonio Alvitre, Msn. S.G. 1831 confirmation, b. after 1817, son of Juan and Tomasa Alvitre, Msn. S.G. 1817 marriage
      - 3. Antonio Maria Albitre, L.A. Plaza Church 1845 marriage to Juana Valenzuela.
      - Jose Antonio Alvitre's 1831 confirmation record would place him in the similar age group as Ramona Alvitre's mother, Rita Bermudez. He is therefore the most likely candidate to be Ramona Alvitre's father.

      We will leave this as stated until further information to the contrary becomes available.

    • CORRECT FATHER OF VALENZUELA CHILDREN:
      UNSUBSTANTIATED but MOST LIKELY this Jose Valenzuela is the father of Rita Bermudez's children.
      - He is one year younger than Rita Bermudez
      - He is the only Jose Valenzuela listed in the Los Angeles 1836 and 1844 Padrons.
      - Rita Bermudez and Jose Valenzuela's son Bartolome Valenzuela baptism record lists THIS Jose Valenzuela's SISTER as a madrina.
      - All of Rita Bermudez's children were either baptized and/or confirmed at Msn. San Gabriel. So Jose Valenzuela was living in the Los Angeles area.
      - Jose Valenzuela was single at the time of Rita Bermudez's children's births
      - Jose Valenzuela married Soledad Duarte 3 years AFTER the birth of his and Rita Bermudez's last child.
      - Jose Valenzuela and his wife Soledad Duarte's son, Francisco Valenzuela, married Rita Bermudez and Julian Quintero's daughter, Gertrudis Quintero.
