Returning to our shoemaker in Altar

 

Made in Ideogram. Vicente in 1859. Altar, Sonora.

In December 2025 I created a likeness on Ideogram for my 3rd-great-grandfather Vicente Antonio Campuzano, working as a shoemaker in 1852. Vicente had two families, and from the first branch of the family we have a Big Y 700 tester in cousin Greg. His result provided a clear Iberian connection. A Big Y test has come back from the side of the second family, connecting to my own branch on the Campuzano side. The results are not what I expected, and I'm doing some additional analysis - and guided consultation next Monday - to understand how to proceed next.

There are definite hints of a connection to the Portillo side of the tree. I'll be exploring this further, and first need to connect again with the Big Y testers.
