Rosenda Gomez De Gomez Lamadrid was the daughter of Jesus S. Palomares Campoy and Plutarco Gomez Lamadrid. She married Homobono Gomez Lamadrid and had three children: Julia Gomez Lamadrid, Luz Gomez Bley, and Pascual Gomez Lamadrid.

With the help of genealogical charts, they can be traced back almost three centuries to the Santiago Palomares family which is one of the first families known for their political, social and economic leadership in the state.
The Rosenda Gomez De Gomez Lamadrid Collection, 1854-1933, contains two series of hand written documents that were written between the early 19th Century and 20th Century in Sonora, Mexico.

The Gomez Lamadrid family was considered one of the wealthiest in Alamos, Sonora. This collection includes the correspondence and financial records of the Gomez Lamadrid family. Other families mentioned include: Bours, Salazar, Echequres, Obregon, Goldschmidt, Palomares, Salido, Aranda, Melchers Successors, Raulio Aldama, Felix, Gaxiola, Diaz, Zuniga, Velderrain, Ruiz, and Lugo.
