Her second message was a power house presentation on the subject of one of her main work projects at the National Archives, "Mexican Border Crossing Records." I'm sure you will all agree that these two messages are worth their weight in gold especially if you are just starting off in Genealogy or have hit a brick wall because you don't know "where" in Mexico your family came from. If the latter is your situation there is a strong chance you can find the information you need to get started in the many rolls of "Mexican Border Crossing Record" films that NARA owns. The website associated with Archivist Claire Prechtel-Kluskens' presentation is: http://www.archives.gov/genealogy/immigration/border-mexico.html

Hosted by Joseph Puentes, Nuestra Familia Unida: History and Genealogy is a deeply personal project dedicated to uncovering and sharing the interconnected stories of our communities. This podcast moves beyond broad historical narratives to focus on the specific lineages, cultural traditions, and lived experiences of people across Mexico, Latin America, and the entire Western Hemisphere. You’ll hear explorations of identity-from the terms La Raza, Chicano, and Chicana to Hispanic, Latino, Latina, and Indigenous-all within the wider context of Native American peoples. The aim is to build a comprehensive, collective resource, a worldwide repository of history told through the lens of family and heritage. Each episode contributes to this growing tapestry, examining how the past shapes our present identities. By delving into genealogy and historical events often overlooked, the series fosters a profound sense of connection and understanding. It’s an ongoing conversation about where we come from, inviting listeners to reflect on their own place within this vast, shared story. Tuning in means participating in the preservation of a rich and diverse legacy for future generations.
