Lynda Martin-Serrano, aka Lynda Sena graduated from Athens State University, Athens, Alabama with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration (BSBA) with a Major in Contracts/Acquisitions. She worked for the United Stated Federal Government and retired after working for 36 years. She then worked in private industry for seven years.

Lynda joined GSHA/FACC in Jan of 2016. She was recruited to be the FACC Secretary by Pennie Garcia, FACC President at the time. She has been researching her Family History for over 35 years.

 

Lynda was born in La Junta, Colorado and raised in Pueblo, Colorado. She considers Pueblo her hometown. All her family members came from New Mexico. Her paternal grandfathers came with the Juan Onate Expedition in 1598 to New Mexico. Their names were Hernan Martin Serrano I and Hernan Martin Serrano II and Luis Martin Serrano I. They were her progenitors on her Paternal side. Lynda started researching her family because of her father, Rolando Sena. He wanted to know more about their family roots and what their original surname was. He had told her that he thought their name had changed, but he was not sure what it was before or why the name had changed. He thought it was Sienna and not Sena. Through Lynda’s research she found out that their paternal surname is Martin Serrano.

 

She traced her mother, Maria Deluvina Madrid y Lobato’s side as well. They go as far back as Tomas Lobato and Petra Encinias or Petrona. Researching her family history in New Mexico is her passion. She has shared a lot of history about her roots with her family and friends.
