Kentucky Connection ?
I don't want to upset anyone with non-Zihua-related trivia, but when we visited Little Bighorn in Montana a few years ago, we were surprised to see that one of Custer's men who died there that day at the age of 28 had the same not-so-common surname as us, (no, not HolyMole !). Research revealed he was a farmer from Breckenridge County, Kentucky. Further digging shows that Breckenridge County has some of the most complete genealogical records in the USA......so one of these days we may take a slight detour to Kentucky on the way down to Zihua, and see if he might be "family".
It's all online!

That is how I learned that I had relatives (Collings family) in Kentucky when it was still Virginia. They did indeed fight in the revolutionary war and were given land grants in the wild frontier of Indiana.
