Maria (nee Maria Sanchez, a sprightly lady 84 years young, was born at Jarales, New Mexico, a small town near Belen, NM on November 25 1869. some 16 years afterwards she married the late Herculano Chavez, and the couple established their home at Pinos Wells, NM, a few years later. There, in the course of years, they built up a cattle ranch and later opened a general store at Pinos Wells. In the course of time, they became the happy parents of 16 children.
Herculano, her husband passed away around 1930 three days after suffering a stroke.
He was never sick a day in his life, never even complained about a headache. Often times he had all his chores done and was taking his morning coffee before the rest of the family had gotten up. It was said about him that no matter where his work would call him his"Libro de Devociones" went with him. Around the year 1936, Maria moved her family to Willard, where she lived until the time of her death.
Point of interest:
1. One of the headstones in front of the San Jose Church in Pinos Wells by the name of Corina Chávez is the daughter of Cruz Chávez and Julián Chávez..
2. One of the two stores was owned by our grandparents, Herculano and Magrandé Chavez.
3. One of the two saloons in Pinos Wells was owned by Magrande's brother.
I hope the information provided is helpful in your project on Pinos Wells.
Warm regards to your family.
