Juan Crisostomo MIRANDA

                   Children of Manuel Miranda:
Reference:  1860 Census, Contra Costa Co., CA, Township No.2 (p.579):
Maria Rosa age 20 (so born 1840), Jesus age 18 (b. 1842), Child #3
(Behenea?) age 12 (b. 1848), Lucia age 10 (b. 1850), Maria age 8
(b. 1852), Francisco age 6 (b. 1854), Eavan age 4 (b. 1856), Harran
age approx. 1 month (b. Mar 1860).  First child, Maria de los Santos
Miranda, not listed, so she was probably married by 1860.

Reference: Notes by Bea Polloreno:  Manuel Miranda was living in San
Jose, CA in 1841, at age 24 (so born 1817).  In 1837 he was a soldier
at a military post in San Jose.  Manuel Miranda and wife Maria del
Carmen Alviso had a one-third interest in the rancho "Canada del los
Vaqueros" that they deeded to Francisco Alviso (brother of Maria
Carmen) and his wife Maria Ysabel Miranda.  Maria Ysabel appears to
be a sister of Manuel Miranda, according to Mr. Keith Ponsford's
information given in the Alviso book, 1973 -- B.P.

Manuel Miranda and Maria Carmen Alviso were married November 28, 1837,
according to Book of Marriages, Mission San Jose (entry #2315).
Padrinos (godparents): Francisco Alviso (Maria Carmen's brother) and
Juana Galindo (she's probably the wife of Jose Maria de Jesus Alviso,
son of Francisco Xavier Alviso). -- From Bea Polloreno's notes.
