   Whoa, hoss.  You'd have to define hacienda for us.  It's a Spanish word, and   
   there could be LOTS of meanings to a bunch of gavachos!   You talking 1700s,   
   1800s, 1900s, what?  San Diego?   Brownsville?  Laredo?   
      
   To answer the question you asked, YES, I do.   
      
   Can you specify what you are seeking, at what time in history?   I can think   
   of one source, maybe five, if I knew what you were hunting.
