Buenaventura De La O

The following article on Buenaventura was originally published in the October, 1963 issue of New Mexico Magazine by Maria Abeyta Vasquez. . It's an interesting article and a valuable piece of family history. This article has been sent to me by several family members, most recently Joseph Valles, Buenaventura's great grandson. Both Mary De La O Kersey, Buenaventura's great granddaughter and Juanita De La O Gordon have also sent me this article.
