Well, it's kind of complicated. Just because you look very White in Mexico doesn't mean you have 'direct' European lineage, though it definitely exists. For example, one of my best friends from Baja California is blonde (natural), blue eyed and super tall. She doesn't even know how far back her European heritage goes and what it is.
But, there are also many who have direct heritage and they know what it is. I have at least 3 Mexican friends from northern Mexico with Spanish grandparents, they even have unique last names, one is Roji. Some other friend's last names are Ptacnik and Ayub, non-Hispanic last names. My co-worker's last names are Percevault and Adissi. These names and many others have history in Mexico.
Northern Mexico and Mexico in general are more diverse than people realize, and its indigenous populations are very diverse as well.
That's right but the indigenous from the north were very nomadic and wild I have a book describing them a lot them attack mestizos and Spanish families brought from Spain to colonize there.

Don't bother, the farthest Leoncio Morcillo has travelled is Benidorm, though originally from some Dutch colony.

My friend is a Solis.
But the same things are true in the US with white people being surprised they have African heritage. Although they have direct European ancestors.
I'm well aware of the diversity of Latin America, at least more than the average American.
