Laredo research update

The parish is probably San Agustin. Call your local Archdiocese. The person in charge of the ARchives should have a listing of current parishes for Laredo. THe archivist should be able to help you get a copy of the baptism. THe 1930's may not be in the LDS microfilms.

Marriage records for Laredo to 1890s have been extracted. Books are sold at Borderlands Books.
