This eBook is invaluable and I highly recommend that you download and add it to your genealogical digital library.
Description of this volume by Cripsin Rendon:
This is the first of five families of Galeana volumes. This volume contains marriage information from the first 500 marriage records found on film 728340 (matrimonios 1718-1836). These marriages occurred in the time span of August 1718 to February 1766. These marriages are found on images 8-214. Basic information from the marriage records is presented along with other information gathered in an attempt to present two generation descendant reports. Most of the non-marriage record information presented was gathered using the FamilySearch.org database index.

I’m having a very hard time researching my family tree. My grandma I believe was born in Galeana….her name was Maria Santos Diaz, daughter of Paula Martinez and Jose Diaz. I have no connection to my Mexican family members still in Mexico and would love to find a connection with any living relatives……can you tell me where to start.
If your grandparents were born before 1930’s look for them int he Mexican Civil registry either at familysearch or ancestry. For living relatives the best place to find them is facebook.
I need marriage of Francisco Luna and Juana Reyes. That have kids from 1813 in Galeana NL.
Where have you looked for them?
Dear Mr Garza
IAM having trouble finding any information on my grandparents.
All, I know there names where Elpidio Pedroza and his wife Antonia Pedroza Lopez was her maiden name.My father was born in Galena N.L His name was Venancio Lopez Pedroza Does that last name have anything to do with Galena. Thank for your time.
Have you searched FamilySearch for them? The civil registration records from 1930 and back are there.
I am researching my husband’s Basaldu/Basaldua line. After using FamilySearch.org, I think that I have been able to trace them from present day Tarrant County, Texas through the Galeana, Nuevo Leon, Mexico church records to Gregario De Basaldua and Angelina Flores, parents in the baptism of their son, Pedro Salvador Basaldua Flores, in 1717, Segrario Metropolitano, Satillo, Coahuila, Mexico.
Do you have any information on this family? I would appreciate you thoughts and anything you might be able to add to direct me to where I might look to find additional information on Gregario De Basaldua and Angelina Flores.
Thank you so much.
I don’t have them on my tree. Try familysearch.org the Monterrey church records have been indexed. Also try the Index to the Marriage Investigations of Guadalajara.
I know my family roots, but it will be fun for me to know more about other Galeana’s families
It would, since many of those families lives were intertwined with the lives of our ancestors.
Is there an updated link to this file? I just tried to look at it again and it shows “Page Not Found.” Thanks!
Not at the moment. Crispin is slowly donating his eBooks to different Hispanic Societies and once he donates this collection i’ll update the link.
I have family that originated in Galeana. Calamaco and Guerra are their last names. I have had a hard time finding any information on Calamaco.
I had never heard about that last name and have not come across it either.
