José Julían González and María Manuela Lucero, Alburquerque, 20-23 Mar 1801
-
José Julián González, 16, español, the legitimate son of Jacinto (Andrés Facundo) González and María Dorotea Griego, citizens of Corrales in the Alburquerque jurisdiction. María Manuela Lucero, española, the legitimate daughter of the late Manuel Lucero and Bárbara Montoya, citizens of Artisco, in the Alburquerque jurisdiction. The couple was related in the fourth degree of consanguinity.

The prospective groom told Father Guerra that María Manuela was the daughter of a poor widow who worked hard to support her. María Manuela testified that she did not know how they were related.

Witnesses:
Jose Apodaca, 76, said the bride was the daughter of a poor widow who also had another single daughter to support.
Vicent López, 57, citizen of Alburquerque
Leonardo Gutiérrez, citizen of Alburquerque

Father Guerra stated they they were certain that the couple was related, but he was unable to determine whether Gregorio Baca and Josefa Baca were siblings or first cousins. He knew the bride was very poor, as was her widowed mother, who had another unmarried daughter to support by her labor. The prospective groom would provide them relief.

On 23 March 1801, dispensation was granted by the vicar.
