Covarrubias de Tecolotlan/Juchitlan


By mdouce7467 - Posted on 27 July 2012

Juan Angel Covarrubias son of Juan Covarrubias and Rosa Cobian married Maria Rosa Santana daughter of Pio Santana and Maria Castillo on February 6, 1773 in Tecolotlan, Jalisco. My ultimate goal is to trace them back to Spain but for now I would like to find their birth place. The only document I can find for them is their marriage certificate and I would like help deciphering it because it is so difficult to read. I think is says Juan Angel is "Esp. de España" but it hard to read.

Here is their marriage record: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-18715-11863-42?cc=1874591&wc=12509487

Their entry is the second entry after 1773 on the left page. It is of course the lightest entry on the page. This is what I was able to decipher. If you read something different please let me know.
