Thank you Victoriano.Wow what a strange last name Antonia has,i wanted your opinion do you think Cristobal Delgadillos’ parents are Juan Delgadillo and Antonia De Araugo?

Hi Abram,
Araujo is not a strange surname here in Mexico.
I don’t think one can say for sure Cristobal Delgadillos’ parents are Juan Delgadillo and Antonia de Araugo. Juan may be Cristobal’s father, uncle, brother or cousin.
Best regards,

Victoriano,

I don’t think it’s as common as Gonzalez,Garcia,Guzman,ect.And it seems to be that the last name Araugo or Araujo is Portuguese and Spanish how interesting.You might be right it could be either father , uncle or cousin.I tries looking for record images for Juan Delgadillo and Antonia Araugo(Araujo)but i didnt find anything.

Abram,
Indeed Araujo it is not a common name, that’s why I labeled it instead as “not strange”. I have met people with that surname. By the way, the padrinos not were always a married couple. Sometimes they were brother and sister, or mother and son, or completely unrelated to each other. I’ve seen examples of each of those cases (in the ancient records as well as in my own modern family).
Best regards,
Victoriano Navarro

I haven’t looked, but have you tried under Arango?
