• Diligencia Matrimonial: 438
Juan Jose Apodaca and Maria Gregoria Chaves. Alburquerque, 25 Aug - 12 Oct 1802, AHAD-359, f. 43-51.

Juan José Apodaca, español, 35, a citizen of Albuqruerque, was widowed of María Antonia Lucero. María Gregoria Chaves, epañola, 21 or 22, a citizen of Alburquerque was the legitimate daughter of Pedro Antonio Chaves and Juana Catarina Baca. The couple was related in the closed third degree of affinity on the basis of copula licita.

In Alburquerque on 25 Aug 1802, Father Juan José de Sida questioned, María Gregoria who stated that the impediment was a result of Juan José Apodaca having been married to one of her second cousin. María Gregoria had been born on 25 Nov and baptized in Alburquerque on 29 Nov 1781. Her godparents were Francisco Antonio Chaves and Feliciana Sánchez.

Juan Jose Apodaca explained that by his marriage to María Antonia Lucero, second cousin of his intended, there was an impediment of affinity. He added that he was related to almost everyone in the area and that he had two small children to raise alone. The priest was unable to locate the baptismal record for Juan José.

Witnesses: Vicente López, 99, citizen of the Alburquerque jurisdiction, swore that he saw Father Rojo baptize Juan José Apodaca, the legitimate son of Cristóbal Apodaca and Gregoria Candelaria, both deceased citizens of Alburquerque, and that Salvador Velázquez, who has been away from the area for a number of years, and his wife, the late Ylaria Contreras, were the godparents. The baptism took place about thirty-four years earlier.

Witnesses:
Jose Saavedra, 40, citizen of the Alburquerque jurisdiction.
Juan José Anaya, español, 45, citizen of Alburquerque.
Miguel Gonzalez, citizen of Alburquerque.
José Ramírez, 53, citizen of Alburquerque.

Father Sida stated that the groom's young children required care when he was away working, that assistance scarce, that he was poor, that he was unable to go far from that jurisdiction to find a wife, that both parties were natives of Alburquerque and were related to more than a third of the people there of their station, so that it was difficult to find anyone to marry someone who was not a relative. Asserting angusti loci, he recommended a dispensation be granted.

In Durango on 5 Oct 1802, Domingo Lázaro Sariñana reviewed the proceedings. He stated that great poverty and angusti loci were sufficient justification to grant the dispensation on the condition that the original documents were properly signed and forwarded to Durango. Bishop Olivares y Benito reviewed the documents and granted the dispensation on 12 Oct 1802, subject banns being proclaimed. Assuming no new impediment arose, the marriage and nuptial to blessing could proceed.
