Ronstadt Collections

 

Source: Ronstadt Collections at U. of Arizona.

Picking up from Wednesday & Thursday's posts, I've previously explored my Suastegui and Vasquez connections to the Ronstadt family. In doing this research, I've looked at two separate collections donated by the Ronstadt family, one to the Arizona Historical Society (PDF), and another to the University of Arizona.

In 2019, I received a set of scans from the Arizona Historical Society. The scans included research provided to the Ronstadt family in 1998 and 2000 by distant cousin and Suastegui researcher, Raclare Kanal. Raclare and I exchanged email between 2012 and 2015, and she provided me with many helpful suggestions that cleared up my own research (see this post from November 2012). She died on 24 February 2016 (see this remembrance article from the University of Arizona), but I still refer back to her research on the Suastegui, Vasquez and Campuzano families quite often.

I have a research query in with the U. of Arizona Special Collections for scans of photos from the Ronstadt Collection. I am trying to see if there are additional photos that I don't currently have for the Suastegui/Vasquez and Dalton families.
