Aurora Moreno

Notes:

His Texas Death Certificate shows he was the son of Perciliana Moreno and Vicenta Martinez. Location of birth listed as Musquiz, Coah, Mexico. He was a retired merchant and widowed. Informant was Robert G. Moreno, presumably his son. He was shown as being a resident of San Antonio for 50 years (since about 1913, matching the 1920 census) and his street address was 3215 So. Flores Street.

In 1924, Heliodoro was naturalized as a United States Citizen. He Declaration of Intention shows he was 41 years old at that time, married to Tomosa, also born in Mexico. The date and location of his birth differ from other records, being recorded as 8 July 1882, in Nuevo Leon on the Declaration, versus 7 May 1882 in Coahuilia on his death certficate and Find a Grave. His address, however, matches the one shown on the 1920 census, 1124 So. San Jacinto St, San Antonio. It therefore appears this document was for the same Heliodoroa Moreno who married Tomasa Garza.

He stated that he arrived in Eagle Pass, Texas on April 15, 1910 from Monterrey, on the Mexican International Ry, having been a resident of Nuevo Leon before he immigrated.
