I have been working on an index for this film of Aguascalientes matrimonial investigations, which is nominally from the period 1733/34.

I am posting this note because the film covers time periods that are not at all obvious from the film title.

While many of the records are from the 1733/34 period, there are many for the period 1735-1758. This latter period is mostly indios, with very few mestizos and mulatos, but no Espanols, from the pueblos of San Marcos, Jesus Maria, Pueblo Nueva, and San Joseph de Grasia.

I am planning on posting this work in the Nuestros Ranchos reference material file, along with indexes for the other films of the 1730/1740 period, later this Fall.
