Good morning all,

Yesterday Familysearch has finally made the Jalisco records available online. Last night I reviewed the Guadalajara Diocese records for marriage dispensations.......... and I hit pay dirt!

It took some going through. I randomly entered image numbers to find the year I was looking for. They are not in good order.....but once I found the couple, it took me back 3 more generations on one family line.

So if you've got marriage dispensations and it's within the Guadalajara Diocese...this is a must read.

WOW!!!!

Hi Rose,

I think you have dealt with Dispensas more than I have. I have a dispensa
dated in a marriage record "Dispensados el 2 de abril de 1772" The marriage
took place in Calvillo Aguascalientes and it only mentions that they shared
two lines of consanguinity third degree and the other third with fourth degree.

I noticed many online "films" have the year 1772, are there certain films
in the Diocesis that are strictly dispensas or are they all mixed with other
records.

That is wonderful news. Thanks for sharing that with us Rose.

I am hoping someone can help me locate dispensations for the year 1742. That is obviously a year that does not appear to be in any particular film but could be in a number of films that appear to be amalgams of various periods...

The dispensation I am looking for is:

En ocho días del mes de enero de mil setecientos y cuarenta y dos en esta parroquia e iglesia casé y velé a Manuel de Santa María Covarrubias, hijo legítimo de Mathias Covarrubias y de Petra Saldaña, españoles vecinos de esta jurisdicción en el rincón de Totatiche con Petra de la Cruz Grano, hija legítima de Joseph Grano y de Efigenia Covarrubias españoles vecinos de dicho rincón a quienes el Señor ??? Vicario General de este obispado les concedió el beneficio de dispenza de parentesco de consangüinidad en tercer grado. Fueron padrinos Juan Antonio Ríos y Theresa Covarrubias.
