Here is the first installment of my transcriptions (more properly
"Interpretations") of christening records of Ags. This group of
records begins with christenings from la hacienda de Santiago de
Guadalupe, feligresía de la Villa de Aguascalientes, beginning in
1726. They are the first christening records of the area. (Prior to
1726 they were recorded in the Aguascalientes Sagrario volumes, going
back to about 1601.) Some of these are specifically marked Labor de
Santiago, but most are Hazienda de Santiago. Some of the baptisms were
apparently performed in San José de Gracia (usually written San
Joseph), or Paredes (sometimes written Paderes), or Pabellón, or a few
other places, as noted. Often the origin (birthplace) of the child is
given also, and sometimes the age. Most of the records also give the
caste or race designation, which I have found does not always agree
with the race recorded when the same children got married.
This project is a learn-as-you-go exercise, so the quality

Stuart,
Thank you very much for sharing your transcriptions with us. My
ggg-grandparents Francisco Ruiz de Esparza and Gertrudis Escobedo married at
the chapel of Hda. de San Blas del Pabellón on 16 Feb 1803. Most of their
children born between 1803-1833 were baptized at either San Blas del
Pabellón or Rincón de Romos, including my gg-grandmother María del Refugio
Ruiz de Esparza, baptized 18 Jan 1819 at the chapel of Rincón de Romos
(ayuda de parroquia de San José de Gracia). I've done extensive research on
this line but look forward to discover new relatives in this area. Your
transcriptions will be very helpful. Incidentally, I visited the new San
José de Gracia, Rincón de Romos, the ex-hacienda de San Blas del Pabellón in
2006. The old village of San José de Gracia is now at the bottom of a lake
formed when the Calles dam was built in 1927. The towers of the church were
visible above the surface for many years, but they finally toppled over in
the early 1990s

Hello Bill,
I am very interested in the history and location and identification of
places in this part of Mexico. I have spent considerable effort
attempting to identify placenames, with some success and of course
some frustration -- too bad they didn't have google earth back in the
1700's! I would like to see those pictures.

Thank you so much Stuart for your interpretations! I too have been combing through these records on line. My areas of interest have mainly been Garabato and some Santiago in Aguascalientes. Here are a couple of notes that I jotted down concerning the Rincon de Romos Baptismals from 1726-1762: Years 1752 to 1755 seems to pick up for areas of interest under Aguascalientes/Sagrario/Baptismals/1752-1755. Beyond the 1726-1762 scope, Santiago seems to pick up at Asientos/Nuestra Senora de Belen (includes San Blas de Pavellon)/Baptismals 1765-1769. Dates for this section are 02/23/1764 to 04/17/1769 40 pages total. I hope this helps.
Also when you or anyone in the group get to the on-line records for marriages for these areas in Aguascalientes, there are marriges that are missing from Rincon/San Jose de Gracia/Marriages 1798-1824. The time frame of 02/26/1805 to 1203/1811 are missing. I stumbled across these records (1805-1811) under Rincon/San Jose de Gracia/Marriages 1824-1829

Hello rudy,
Thank you. I've pasted your notes in a place where I'll find them when
I look at those sources.
Also note that the images for MARRIAGES from 1601-1662 in
Aguascalientes/Sagrario are found under the first group of BAPTISMS
for that area. The baptisms and marriages were bound in one volume,
but the filmers (or the indexers) apparently didn't notice: the
marriages begin with image 226.

Hello Bill,
I would be interested in obtaining a copy of the photos you mentioned from these areas if possible. Thank you Bill!

Hello Everyone,
With Stuart's permission I have taken his "interpretations" and added them
