Donaciano Vigil, wife Faustina

**epease** · 06-27-2010, 12:13 PM

Looking for information about my Great Uncle Donaciano Vigil, I have found where he was a Deputy Clerk of the Court in Trinidad and lived at 209 Propect, my father Paul Vigil says he may have been a County Commissioner.

Great Uncle Don was also a teacher in the Stonewall/Weston area. My father's siblings always referred to Uncle Don proudly as the only formally educated member of the family.

Any and all information would greatly appreciated!

I have info and pictures. Donaciano's wife Faustina Torres was my aunt Sarah (Aragon) and uncle Luis Torres's daughter. Are your grandparents Jose Amador and Clorinda Vigil? I have a Paul Vigil listed as a brother to my cousin, John B. Vigil of Pueblo.

Pat, I have a picture of Donaciano when he was principal at the school in Torres I would like to share. I don't see how to add photos to the forum like I used to. Can you give me a tip?

Faustina M. Torres' paternal grandmother was Maria del Carmel aka
del Carmen Cordova who is sister to my 2nd great grandmother, Juana Maria del Carmen Cordova.

Thanks Pat for the marriage license. Charagon, I sure would like the picture to add to my tree. Could you email it to me?

Picture of Donaciano Vigil when he was the principal of the school in Torres, CO. I think my dad said the teacher was Mary Chavez.

If I haven't said it before. I appreciate everything that has been forwarded to me.
Does any one have anything on Great Uncle Donaciano's sisters, here is what I know. sister Great Aunt Rose Vigil married Felix Aragon (I've been told he was a Barber?) and lived in Trinidad. Sister Great Aunt Sencionita Vigil was married to Frank Vigil (a distant cousin) and lived next to her father Francisco and mother Manuelita on a farm in Madrid. If you can recommend documentation that may shed light on possible information, it would be greatly appreciated.
By the way my father's sister Cristella still lives in Trinidad and I plan to visit and interview her for my research.
Thanks again,
