José María Armíjo, 25, single, a native Alburquerque, was the legitimate son of the late Lucas Armijo and Bárbara Ortiz, citizens of Alburquerque.

The couple was related in the first and second degrees of consanguinity on a transverse line. Juana María had lost her mother and was burdened with debt because her father was unable to support her.

Father Fernando Ortiz forwarded the proceedings to Durango. On 20 May 1841, Bishop Zubiría granted a dispensation and assigned as penance that the couple would recite ten rosaries of five mysteries and attend mass of the Holy Trinity three times for the need of the Church and for peace in the republic. He ordered the priest in Alburquerque to proclaim the banns. Assuming no new impediment arose, he was to have the couple prepare for their marriage by going to confession. Then, he was to marry them, giving them the nuptial blessings.

On 22 May 1841, the episcopal secretary in Durango wrote Father Juan Felipe Ortiz on order of the bishop, stating that Father Fernando Ortiz had erred in describing the relationship. He was ordered to demonstrate that the couple was related in the first degree. If so, there was a fee of 48 pesos, which should be sent to Durango or to the vicar in Chihuahua, Fry Juan José Baca.

Bishop Zubiria wrote Father Ortiz on 23 October concerning the Armijo matter. He stated that in May notice of the dispensation was sent, but apparent1y it failed to arrive Albuquerque as of the end of August. By that time the couple was living together, and Juana Marla was pregnant. The priest Albuquerque had not mentioned any of this. Therefore. the dispensation was null as was the marriage, assuming it had been celebrated. If the notice of the dispensation arrived after August, it was nullified on the basis that their having had sex was not reported. If they engaged in improper relations after 20 May, nothing was to be done. An additional 20 pesos in alms for the benefit of the church of Albuquerque was required. The bishop chastised the Albuquerque priest, saying the dispensation he had recommended the bishop give to his relatives was impossible to grant.

In Santa Fe on 29 November, Father Juan Felipe Ortiz responded to the bishop, saying that the moment he received the bishop's letter of 23 October, he summoned the priest in Alburquerque, Father Fernando Ortiz, to learn what had taken place in the matter of the marriage of José and Juana Armijo. José had told him that he had not had improper relations with Juana before seeking a dispensation.
