The following is the marriage of my wife’s 3rd great-grandparents Jose Tomas Perez and Maria Francisca de Ayala who married in 1837 in Valle De La Mota, present-day General Teran, Nuevo Leon, Mexico.
It is an interesting document since it mentions that Tomas was from the city of Monterrey and that he was the widow of Juliana Maldonado. The record also states that Maria Francisca was the widow of Nicolas Cantu.
If anyone has more information on them please let me know. Also, I did my best transcribing the document since as you can tell it is kind of hard to see the letters. You can see the image used for transcription here.
