Anyone interested in the marriage record for Joseph Moreno de Ortega & Petrolina Ramirez?


By Angelina Markle - Posted on 15 June 2011

Hello everyone,

I just found a record that has been eluding me for a very long time. If anyone is interested it is a very interesting read. As mentioned the couple is Joseph Moreno de Ortega and Petrolina Ramirez married in Lagos de Moreno 1708.

If you are interested the 10 page document can be found under Lagos de Moreno: Informaciones Matrimoniales 1708-1709: images 159-169

the basic facts are as follows ... however, as I mentioned it is an interesting read ... you rarely find more than names and dates and this one tells of a love story between a young man from a “familia de calidad” and a young woman of “baja esphera” .... just thought I’d share.

couple: Joseph Moreno de Ortega & Petrolina Ramirez
date of record: July 29 1708
Groom's parents: Juan Moreno de Ortega & Beatris Vazquez Zermeño
Bride's parents: Nicolas Ramirez & Andrea de los Reyes
groom age: 25 (1683)
bride age: 21 (1687)

Enjoy,
-Angelina-
