I'm reguesting a lead on Bartholome Delgado and Francisca Merquelin Chevarria my 9th Great grandparents. They married on April 3, 1701 in Pinos, Zacatecas. I have their marriage dispensation that provides their parents names Francisco Delgado and
Petra Martin Chaves and Francisco Merquelin Chevarria and Juana Delgado y Valensuela.
Marriage Dipensation Guadalajara, Diocesis de Guadalajara, matrimonios 1700-1705 Source number 168605/159-162.
Through information from Nuestros Ranchos I also have validation that when widowed Francisco Delgado married Juana Delgado y Valensuela in 1700 at Pinos, Zacatecas.
I would appreciate help in finding documentation to continue my tree!

Hi Again, were you able to trace any of your Delgado ancestors to Juan Jose Delgado after all. From my last post.
"I was doing research on my Delgado Line from Zacatecas when I came across your post. The names sounded familiar and looking back at my pdf copy of "Spain's Patriots of Northwestern New Spain" part 8 by Granville W. and N.C. Hough. I realized that Juan Delgado and Mathiana Contreras' son, Juan Jose Delgado is listed on page 48 of this pdf copy. The link is www.somosprimos.com/hough/nwus.pdf This is what it reads "Juan Jose Delgado. MPR:G, on 26 Nov 1775 widower of Josefa Leonarda Juarez and son of Juan Manuel Delgado of Sierra de Pinos and Matiana Contreras, married Ma- Margarita Sanchez, daughter of Juan Bautista Sanchez and Juana Ma. Diaz. They burried son in 1781." According to authors of the book, any direct descendant of Juan Jose Delgado or any other veteran from this list can apply for acceptance to Sons American Revolution or Daughters American Revolution.

Hello,
I descend from Juan Jose's aunt Maria Teresa Delgado, married to Francisco Xavier Gaitan. Thanks for posting that, though.
Saludos,

Hola Carolina,
It appears we descend from many of the same lines!
Here's a link to the information on the 3 Apr 1701 marriage between Bartholome Delgado and Francisca Josepha de Chevarria y Merquelen: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-18377-20365-52?cc=1874591&wc…
According to this, at the time of the wedding, Bartholome was 30 and Francisca Josepha 17 (poco mas o menos), making their birth years 1671 and 1684, respectively. Bartholome Delgado was born on the Pendencia in Pinos, Zacatecas. In her declaration, Francisca Josepha says she had been in the country for 8 years (poco mas o menos…), making the year of arrival 1693. She gives her trajectory up to that point, and since she lived in the company of her parents, it can be assumed that this was their trajectory. Here's an excerpt:
"Dijo: que se llama Doña Francisca Josepha de Chavarria Mercadin, originaria de la Ciudad de Cadiz, en los Reinos de Castilla y vecina de este Real lo mas de quatro años

I found this while digging around the archives today: the IM for Francisco Delgado's marriage to Juana Delgado y Valenzuela, from June of 1700, in Pinos. Though it doesn't give much on Francisco Delgado, it does say Petra Martin Chavez died some 3 years before, so we can place her death around 1697, in Pinos. And there are declarations from Francisco and Juana, as well as from Juana's parents, Capitan Don Fernando Delgado y Ocampo and Doña Marina Valensuela y Lara. As in the IM of her daughter, Juana's gives a description of their pase a indias and their first years in Nueva España. It also gives a account of the death of Juana's first husband, Capitan Francisco Echevarria y Merquelin: he died in Puerto de Cabo Verde, Africa, around 1686, while in transit to Buenos Aires, and he was buried at sea. Cause of death is not given. It also states that Juana didn't learn of her first husband's fate until some 11 years later, around 1697, when she was told by his ship's commander, Capitan

Dear Carolina,
My mother and I recently joined Nuestros Ranchos and we are researching our Delgado line in Pinos, Zacatecas and Aguascalientes. You can look up our genealogy file under Ramirez, Patricia. Bartholome Delgado is my mother's 6th great grandfather. We are descended from his son, Juan Manuel Delgado who married Mathiana Contreras Rodriguez in 1728. Hopefully, some of our information will be of use to you.
With many regards,
Patricia Ramirez
