These sound like films I MUST order. I had never thought to order films
from Esparza. I found some family members in the Pamplona parish
registers when I researched at the Archbishop’s archives in
Pamplona…not in the cathedral’s books, but in a smaller parish further
out. But I never spent enough time there to actually find Lope. Perhaps
his baptismal is in these Esparza films.

Thanks!
