I am tracking Joan (Juan) De Angon who had a rancho in 1633 near Jerez:

This rancho was exactly located here:

I know that he had a son named "Esteban Angon."

I believe Joan Angon is the grandfather of my 7th generation great grandmother "Maria De La Candelaria Angon (1655 - 1709) who married Antonio Madera (1660 - 1709).

Comment

unfortunately it is cut off, but by looking at the other side, i'm not sure if these records are death records or not. i think they may actually be either birth or confirmation records due to the sheer number listing of names are parents

Comment

It does says Angon and the first visible letter seems to me an "A" thus it was probably referring to a daughter. like Katy said is a Confirmation entry; "hija de Juo. de angon i Juana M. Cat. de Gomes?/Gusman?" Godparent is not visible due to the tight binding.

Comment

Thanks Katy and RJQ for replying.

I have here a description of Juan De Angon on Pasejero de Indias to Mexico in 1606. There was a Juan De Angon who also had a son name Juan Angon:

In the PARS website the reference no. is: CONTRATACION,5295,N.10

I have traced Juan Angon. He shows up in the "Cofradias 1632 - 1700" archive of Huejuquilla El Alto. Where almost every page starts out with, "En La Cofradia De La Limpia Concepcion en la Capilla de este Rancho De Juan De Angon" Year 1633 for example. He had a son name Esteban Angon where then it refers to him as "Rancho de Esteban Angon" which later changed to "Estancia De Esteban Angon" By 1681, then it mentions that En la Estancia que le pertenece a dos herederos de Esteban Angon:

The Estancia changed name to "Rio Chico"

One of those herederos is suppose to be Juana Angon. The other could be my 7th

Antonio Madera (1660 - 1709) and Maria De La Candelaria Angon (1655 - 1735) had these kids in the Mezquitic, Jalisco, Mexico area:

Joseph Madera (1684 - 1734)
Manuela Madera (1686 - 1738)
Geronimo Madera
Juan Madera
Maria Madera

The Guadalajara Diosesis? Can you tell me more about what that contains? If you find any on Antonio Madera or Maria De La Candelaria Angon Or Joseph Madera their son. Can you let me know?

If I go into that Guadalajara Diosesis and look for matrimonio of Antonio Madera (1660 - 1709) and Maria De La Candelaria Angon (1655 - 1735) in the time frame around 1680 - 1687, do you think I can find their matrimonio in there?

Comment

Here in this link on the Diocesis of Guadalajara beginning on page 144 and for the next several pages it mentions "Maria De La Candelaria Angon" of Mezquitic beinb married to Antonio Madera of Mezquitic:

I believe you were the one that originally found this. I have a question about this archive of the Diocesis of Guadalajara? Is it random in terms of finding relatives from a certain town? Is it organized by geographic location to as to look up the archives of Diocesis of Guadalajara in the Valparaiso, Mezquitic, Huejuquilla region? Or is it just random?

Comment

the guadalajara dispensas found under the Mexico, Jalisco, Catholic Church Records, 1590-1979 category is organized randomly, and the Mexico, Archdiocese of Guadalajara, Miscellaneous Marriage Records collection has them organized by location usually.

also nvm about the last link, i looked some names on that tree and it seems unlikely that the antonio on that tree on my last link is your ancestor
