Alferez José Domímguez (26) of El Paso, Presidio soldier
Andrés Gonzales (41) Presidio soldier who knew groom for seven years in El Paso, said that Pedro Luján, a cousin of his, had remarked that the groom could not marry María García because she had accepted a rosary from him (Luján) and had been his.
José de Apodaca (35), Presidio soldier and Pedro Luján's brother-in-law
Francisco de Apodaca (30), Josés brother, both of whom had heard Luján say the above, but only as a joke.
Pedro Luján (20), Presidio soldier and married, who denied everthing, except the rosary gift.

Another impediment brought up by Antonia Martín (20), native of New Mexico living in El Paso, daughter of Capitán Luis Martín and Antonia de Miranda, deceased, both natives of New Mexico. She claimed that the groom had deflowered her with the promise of marriage. Gutiérrez replied that he did give his word to this Antonia Martín and had also deflowered her, adding that he had perjured himself because Alcalde José Telles Jiron had threatened to garrote him if he did not marry María García.

As a result, Juan Roque Gutiérrez married Antonia Martín instead of 18 Feb 1692, by order of Governor don Diego de Vargas.
