Hi Evie:

Did you check matrimonios and marriage informacion records?  Marriage
informacion should give detailed information.  Hang in there, I'm
in the same boat it gets hard when you are in the mid 1700's.  I 
have also viewed baptism records when they give no last names for the child
and it's frustrating.

Juan Florencio Villegas was

born in Ameca, JAL and married to Pascuala Flores in 1759 in

Colotlan, JAL. He died there in 1801.  On the marriage document

his parents are listed as Bartolome de Villegas and Nicolasa

Rodrigues.  His death certificate lists only his wife's name
and

no birthplace.  The only Juan birth possibility I could find
in

Ameca  was a Juan Rodrigues born in Ameca to a Bartolome

with no last name, but the time period was too early (1696) and

the mother's first name is not the same.  I have the birth
records

of 4 possible brothers and sisters who were born in Tlaltenango

De Sanchez Roman, ZAC.  Their births occurred between 1729

and 1734.  Several of them married in Colotlan near the time
of

Juan's marriage.  However, the parents listed for these

possibilities are Bartolome Villegas and either Maria Nicolasa,

Juana Nicolasa or Nicolasa de la Cruz and not Nicolasa

Rodrigues.  Still hoping these are all members of Juan's family

but need help to determine this and find the birth record of either

Juan or Bartolome.  The padrino for Juan's marriage was Maria

Saldana and  Petra Saldana was the padrino for Juan's

daughter who was born in Colotlan in 1760.  I became frustrated

a couple of years ago and have just resumed the search. Can

anyone help me?  Thanks.  Evie
