Mateo Pino and Marfa Concepci6n Roybal were his godparents at the baptism, which took place in about 1774.

Witnesses for the oral declarations on 20 Novr 1793 were Bernardo Mirabal, 54, and Fabian Maldonado, 48.

The proceedings were forwarded to Durango. On 20 Mar Bishop Tristán granted a dispensation. He cited the bull of Pope Pius VI of 4 Jan 1784 that stipulated that to atone for the sin and resulting scandal, a couple should receive as a corporal sentence the payment of 9 pesos 3 reales, which could be commuted by doing personal labor at the poor churches in the bishopric for a period of one month; and for a spiritual penance they must recite the rosary daily.
