ARGUELLO, Maria Josefa Zenobia

Female Abt 1843 - 1915  (~ 72 years)


Personal Information    |    Sources    |    Event Map    |    All    |    PDF

  • Name ARGUELLO, Maria Josefa Zenobia 
    Nickname Zenobia 
    Gender Female 
    Born Abt. 1843  Alta California Find all individuals with events at this location  [1
    • NOTE: POSSIBLE DUPLICATION
      See sister SERRANO Maria Josefa (Zenobia?) - http://www.schwaldfamily.org/getperson.php?personID=I12608&tree=RodSchwald

      This person could POSSIBLY be Maria Josefa SERRANO (whom we list as a sister). The birth date aligns correctly with the 1844 Padron of Los Angeles which lists one of Juana AVILA's children as:
      MARIA SINOBIA AVILA - age: 8 months - residing in Los Angeles --- and born in Los Angeles.

      Zenobia Arguello also went by the name of JOSEFA Zenobia ARGUELLO:
      -A Los Angeles Plaza Church baptism of 31 Mar 1861 lists the madrina as Josefa Zenobia ARGUELLO.
      -The Los Angeles Plaza Church baptism of Zenobia's daughter, Ramona, on 7 Sep 1871 lists her as Josefa Zenobia ARGUELLO

    • CORRECT FATHER OF Maria Zenobia Arguello:
      UNSUBSTANTIATED, but MOST LIKELY, this Jose Antonio Francisco Arguello is the correct father of Maria Zenobia Arguello.

      He is the only Jose Antonio Arguello with this name found in the Los Angeles area during the time of her birth.

      Records that list Maria Zenobia Arguello's father as Jose Antonio Arguello:
      1. Family bible/personal papers; list her parents as Jose Antonio ARGUELLO and Juana Maria AVILA

      2. L.A. Plaza Church marriage record:
      1122) Jan 30, 1871- SALVADOR GRIJALVA, 38, natl. de Hermosillo, of Manuel y Candelaria Chaira, with MARIA CENOBIA ARGUELLO, 22, natl. de L.A. of Jose Antonio y Juana Quinto.

      3. Zenobia Arguello Grijalva's death certificate lists her parents as Antonio Arguello and Juana Avila.
