I think people need to remember there is no such thing as the "pure race". Thereis no such thing. Though there is "limpieza de sangre" I might be super whitein appearacene but have a mxture of peoples that make my ancestry. I thinklots of people say there are no whites in Mexico and then some say the whiteones are not Mexican at all. Mexico is a diversed country of natives and immigrantsjust like any American country. We are all mixed. About 3/4 of the white population inthe US have some native american or african blood. Which says something, just likein Mexico the whites have at least some native or african blood. Altenos are usually regardedas "the old white aristocracy of Western Mexico" I think thats why most of us dont wantto hear the jewish, black or native blood that one might have. Of course this doesnt mean we are 100% of converso or native blood. I have one black line and two nativeamerican lines, and some jewish lines but mostly european, this shows the diverse bac
kground I have. I might have some moorish blood but havent found any yet.

Jewish Los Altos - Are we confusing Cryptowith Converso?
If you descend from the mendoza family you descend from a moor. Why do you think the greatest administrator in keeping the peace between catholics was from your ancestors. I believe he is in your line but I would have to check your tree to know if was so. One of the reasons was because his grandmother was a moor and he could relate to both cultures.
If you descend from the rodriguez de hijar or from alfonso IX You have moor blood
