This is the marriage of my wife’s 3rd great grandparents Jose Antonio Garcia and Maria Juana Villarreal whom got married in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico back in May 27, 1822.
The information needed to locate this record, and break a brick wall, was was provided by Jose G. Muguerza Jr. whom kindly did research on my wife’s family for me. I am very thankful to have meet him at the state conference in Corpus Cristi, Texas.
This record indicates that the parents of Jose Antonio are Francisco Garcia and Juana Maria Guajardo. The parents of Maria Juana Villarreal are listed as Jose de Jesus Villarreal and Maria Josefa de la Garza.
It is interesting to note that both of them are listed as being form El Topo de Los Ayalas, a location that at one point was property or my ancestors so I am very interested to see if this branch of her family is also related to mine.
