This is the April 20, 1795 Death Record of Jose Gaspar Garcia in Mier, Tamaulipas, Mexico. He is my 7th Great Grandfather.
This record indicates that he was a widow from his second marriage to Maria Guadalupe Flores. I am a descendant of his from his first marriage to Maria Gertrudis Barrera whom died in Mier on August 18, 1776.
I have yet to find the parents of both Jose Gaspar Garcia and Maria Gertrudis Barrera. Also this record indicates that he made a will. If anyone out there has it or knows the names of the parents please let me know.

He is my 4th/5th great grandfather from three of my great grandparents lines. Married to Maria Gertrudis Barrera with all. Great grandparents to Eusebio Garcia, Virginia Vidaurri Salinas (my grandfathers parents) and grand parent to Emeteria Garcia (my grandmothers mother). If I am counting correctly.
If interested in exchanging family lines let me know. I would love to add you to my family tree.

I saw in an article that JOSE GASPAR GARCIA who married Maria Gertrudis Garcia was the son of DIEGO JOSEPH GARCIA GARZA and MARIA GARCIA GARZA (born VELA). Diego was born on November 5, 1710 in Mier.
I have not been able to confirm. Don Gaspar Garcia was my great (5) grandfather through his son Tomas, Andres, Jesus, Gaspar, Ernesto (my grandfather) and Gilberto Sr. (my father). Jesus, Gaspar and Ernesto buried at the Barranco Blanco Garcia Cemetery near Benavides, Texas (Duval).
Hay una licencia de pasajeros a Indias de un Gaspar GarcÃa que venÃa como criado en el año de la 1735, en ese entonces tenÃa 16 años y natural de Laredo, Cantabria, el mismo lugar que donde nació Escandon, puede ser que ese chico de 16 haya sido nuestro Gaspar GarcÃa.
Pudiera ser.
