Cañon de San Diego Land Grant ~ 1788

Sometime in January 1788, Francisco (Navajo Interpreter) and Antonio Garcia de Noriega, two brothers, applied for a land grant near Jemez Pueblo.  The alcalde in charge, Antonio de Armenta, eventually put them in possession of the land.  The records indicate that the land grant was later approved and the descendants of Antonio Garcia de Noriega were still living on it during the approval process. (833) These are a few things that I found in this land grant record. 

The Last Will & Testament of Maria Francisca Gutierrez, (b. May 1771) the wife of Antonio Garcia de Noriega, dated July 10, 1798 at Cañon de San Diego.  She tells us who she is married to and their four children who are Maria Rita, Maria Biviana, Maria Antonia and Jose Rafael. (838)

On January 22, 1880, they ask a Nerio Antonio Montoya, age 73, farmer and who is living in Nacimiento some questions.  He claims that Antonio is his grandfather and the papers for the land grant were in his possession the whole time.  His mother, Maria Rita Garcia de Noriega, had them and when she died in 1852, she was residing upon that tract and had been since about 1822.  The papers were continuously in the families hands at all times.  I delivered them to my first cousin, Captain Augustin del Valle with the understanding that he would file them with the U.S. Surveryor Generals Office.  Asked of his father's name, Nerio responded:  Manuel Montoya.  Asked about Francisco Garcia, he did know him as a very young man, but he was killed by the Apaches. (886-887)

Augustin del Valle, 48, carpenter and resides in Bernalillo.  He testifies that Nerio Antonio did indeed give him the papers to file. (887)

 The outline of the heirs follows: 
Antonio Garcia and Maria Francisca Gutierres (1771-1798).
1.  Maria Rita married Manuel Montoya
   a.  Juan Montoya
   b.  Nerio Antonio Montoya, b. 1807
2.  Maria Biviana who died without issue.
3.  Maria Antonia, married Manuel del Valle.
   a.  Augustin del Valle, b. 1832.
   b.  Adelina del Valle.
4.  Rafael Garcia, who left a son.
   a.  Agapito Garcia de Noriega.  He in turn sold to Nerio Montoya and Adelina del Valle in settlement of the estate left to her and her brother, quit claimed to Augustin del Valle all her rights.  Nerio and Juan Montoya quit claimed for the same, to Augustin del Valle.  (898)

Sandia Burials, 1824-1855

This is the last of what I found in the Sandia Burials.  I suggest to anyone who has family or needs to find missing records to look at the film -  I do know that I did not catch everyone.  These are all surnames I have in my database and I'm more apt to jot their information on paper than ones I don't recognize. By this time, my San Miguel del Bado ancestors had already moved, I was hoping they might have come back a few times to the Bernalillo area, but it doesn't appear so for my family.

Burials at Sandia Mission:

October 1824, Diego Chavez married to Juliana Montoya.

October 26, 1824, Bartolome Chavez married to Maria Guadalupe Archibeque, from Angostura.

May 28, 1825, Antonia Agustina Gutierrez married to Lorenzo Griego, from Algodones. (830)

June 6, 1848, Manuela Trujillo, 60 years old, from Bernalillo, widow, left three married children.

June 8, 1848, at this parish of Nuestra Señora de Dolores de Sandia, I the priest don Jose Manuel Gallego, priest of Albuquerque, and in charge of this mission, bury the cadaver of Toribio Salazar, adult of 77 years old, husband of Polonia Gutierres, vecinos of Bernalillo. He left 13 married children and I administered the sacraments. (933)

May 28, 1849, Cristobal Gonzales, 40 and widower, left four married children. (937)

August 22, 1850, Dolores Montoya, 40 years, married to Juan Ramon Gutierrez, Indians. (943)

Santa Ana Burials 1735, 1740

It could be that the same priest in Jemez was not using surnames either.  Ran across these two burials, one of which I needed to fill in some gaps in my database of Gallegos.

On July 29, 1735, buried Juan Manuel (no surname), español, about 40 years of age, and was married to Catharina Gutierrez.  (214)

On May 13, 1740, buried Nicolas Gallego, español, about 40 years of age, married to Sabel Xaramillo.  (219)  This couple was married in 1734 at Albuquerque and I have one child for them after he is buried; Josefa who married Domingo Griego.  I used her age from the diligencia, could she have been off five years in citing her age?

Jemez Marriages 1768-1770

Here are a few more marriages I found that hadn't already been extracted.  Plus there is one record that makes me think the priest might not have been writing down the surnames of people, which means I should go back and recheck the film one more time.

As witnesses for a marriage dated February 10, 1752, the padrinos were Marcos Toribio, español and Maria, collota. (768)  My guess is that Marcos Toribio is Gonzales and I'm not sure who she is?

On December 25, 1768, Jose Martin, legitimate son of Andres Martin and Quiteria Garcia, deceased marrying Maria Ysabel Romero, legitimate daughter of Joseph Romero and Manuela de Luna, all españoles, padrinos were Juachin de Luna and Maria Angela Salazar.  (779)

On July 30, 1770, Pascual Mestas, with Rosa Molina, single, padrinos were Antonio Romero and Antonia de la Cerda, vecinos from Nacimiento. (782)

On August 1, 1770, Mathias Zalazar, widower and marrying Rosa de Luna, single, padrinos were Gaspar Gonzales and Guadalupe Martin. + Antonio Lucero, single marrying Josepha Gonzales, single, padrinos were Bartolo and Luiza Gallego.  (782)

Cochiti Marriages, 1776

Well my love for looking at film has paid off recently.  I have been looking for more on both of these families for a very long time, and it just amazes me what you can find if you go frame by frame.  My good friend Luis did many extractions long ago, by himself no less; and he did a great job.  But as I keep telling myself, check the film and that is what I urge everyone else to do.  None of these solve my dead ends or brick walls, but they fill in some blanks.

At Cochiti:

On October 7, 1776, Antonio Felis Luxan, son of Joseph Luxan and Antonia Esquibel, from the villa of Santa Cruz de la Cañada, with Theodora Romero, daughter of Miguel Romero, deceased and Rosa Montolla, both single; witnesses:  Miguel Maez, Nicolasa Lujan. (007) 

On October 7, 1776, Joseph Maria Maez, single, son of Marcial Maez, deceased and Rosalia Abeyta with Maria Rosa Barela, daughter of Juan de Dios Barela and Pascuala Garcia; witnesses:  Antonio Maese, son of Marcial Maeze and Rosalia Abeyta and his wife, Barbara Santistevan, daughter of Juan Santistevan, deceased and Francisca Valerio Martin. (008)

The witnesses in this case confirm a relationship I haven't been able to find, that of Antonio Maese and tying him to Marcial, his father.  Although, this isn't a marriage record, the fact that the priest wrote the relationship down was enough for me to make that connection.

Marriages in Cochiti 1782-

Again, I keep telling myself, Cochiti must have been the place to get married in the late 1700s.   I keep finding Pojoaque, Tesuque and Santa Cruz people getting married not that far from home, but far enough.

On February 27, 1782, Benito Lucero, español single, legitimate son of Antonio Lucero and Ana Maria Santisteban Coronel, deceased with Maria Felipa Duran, single española of Pojoaque, legitimate daughter of Miguel Duran and Maria Josefa Lujan - witnesses:  Cayetano Montaño and Pedro Antonio Truxillo.  (027)

This Duran family had another daughter that married on January 27, 1782 at Cochiti to an Antonio Lucero on January 27, 1782; one month apart.  I think maybe, rechecking the film might be helpful to make sure it wasn't a double ceremony on the same date.

On January 15, 1792, Lucas Aragon, single español and legitimate son of Vizente Aragon, deceased with Maria Rosa Gutierres, with Barbara Antonia Apodaca, legitimate daughter of Miguel Apodaca and Antonia Montoya, españoles; witnesses:  Jose Urban Montaño and Manuel Loreto Luzero. (063-064)

Rosa Gutierres remarried to a Nicolas Apodaca in 1782, his parents are noted in that marriage record.  The Miguel Apodaca mentioned in the marriage above, I do not have parents for and there might be a diligencia some place that would show some kind of affinity for Barbara Antonia when she weds?  Sort of a long-shot, but worth checking if this is your family.

On August 14, 1795, Francisco Ruibal, genizaro, legitimate son of Alexandro Ruibal and Maria Vegil, with Cristina Raguaya, Indian, witnesses:  Francisco Ubachini and Juan Gomes. (086)

On May 1, 1796, Jose Manuel Suazo, legitimate son of Juan Phelipe Suazo and Maria Rosa Chavez, Indian naturales of Tesuque, with Maria Antonia Saquitz, single legitimate daughter of Juaquin Sistiqua, deceased and Barbara Cayotiya, Indios naturales from Cochiti. (094)

Jemez Marriages 1770-1771

I found these when I was going back through the film and realized that somehow I hadn't captured them the first time.

On August 7, 1770, married and veiled, Miguel Sandobal, widower of Olaya Giron with Maria Kandelaria, single, padrinos were Antonio Martin and Rita Zalazar. (782)

Note:  Is this the same woman as Maria Candelaria Lucero, who has children getting married in Picuris?  There is a couple with the same names that are from Santa Clara area.

On October 28, 1771, married Juan Ygnacio Romero, widower of Marta Salazar with Maria de la Encarnacion Lucero, single, witnesses:  Pedro Sisneros, 42, Marcos Archuleta, 35, Joseph Gallegos, 30, padrinos were Bernabel Gallego and Anna Maria Herrera.
