My mother Estela’s maiden name was Huron. She married Gil Coronado. Did you run across her name?
My Grand Mother was Losoya, from RGV..
Would be interested to research..

Hello again, Mr. Andrew Martinez. In response to your photo of transcribing the letter written by los Senores Martinez to the parents of la Senorita Huron. This is a beautiful formal letter asking for the hand of said Senorita Huron. I remember my parents and grandmother saying that this was how the grooms parents went about asking for a marriage meeting for their son with the brides parents. I believe it was called “piede la mano de la novia”.The letter was usually covered in a fancy calligraphy cover and the grooms mom wore a fancy scarf that were both usually presented to the future in-laws at the time of the said meeting. My grandma said that she had a letter and scarf presented to her family ,saved with her trousseau. These items were lost many years later in a flood. I was happy to see your ancestors letters posted in the photo.
