On Monday a digital copy of the Alien Registration File for Trinidad Leyva arrived in my inbox from the National Archives in Kansas City. Unlike other copies I have received, this one was strikingly limited in new information. This record confirmed her birthdate and location in Sinaloa, identifying features, and some of her previous border crossing dates. In the record Trinidad also noted that she was widowed and had five children (it looks like she actually had six children).
This record doesn't help clear up how she may be connected to our Mexican side of the tree. It looks like I need to go back another generation on either side of her parents Escolastico and Flora.
