opportunities for work, and Francisco could support her in an average manner.
Father Castro questioned Francisco Gonzalez. He stated that in addition to the
impediments mentioned in their petition, there was an impediment in the second degree of affinity
on the basis of his illicit sexual relations with a first cousin of his intended. He had also had carnal
relations with Maria Gertrudis, although they did not know they were related ar that time nor was it
not done with a depraved end in mind or to facilitate obtaining a dispensation.

was known to frequent Maria Gertrudis's house, but that it had not caused a scandal.
Antonio Jose Olivas, 60, citizen of the La Caiiada jurisdiction.
