In Durango, on 16 Sep 1802, Canon Fernández Valentín stated that a dispensation on the basis of angusti loci was not justified by the witnesses, but given the great distance from New Mexico to Durango he approved the marriage proceed on the condition that the parish priest reexamine the witnesses concerning angusti loci and that such a procedure should be followed in all future cases.

On 30 Jun 1803 Father Bernal redid the proceedings. Bernardino repeated his previous statements. María Gertrudis added that she had been born in the Bernalillo, but had lived in the Belén jurisdiction for more than twelve years.

Witness: Jose Garda Jurado, 79, citizen of the plaza of Belen.

Father Bernal forwarded the documents to Durango. On 20 Feb 1804, Visitor General Pedro Millán Rodríguez, acting for Bishop Olivares y Benito, granted a dispensation. Father Bernal prepared a third petition on 21 Jun 1804 in which the proceedings were repeated, which indicates that he had not received the earlier approval.

Witnesses:
Toribio García Jurado, 73.
José García Jurado, 71, citizen of los Bacas.
Santiago Trujillo over 60, citizen of los Trujillos.

Father Bernal forwarded the proceedings to Durango on 23 Jun 1804, citing the first two submissions and indicating that he was uncertain whether they had been received in Durango.

On 2 Aug 1804 Visitor General Millán Rodríguez explained his reasoning for granting a dispensationon the basis of angusti loci. He weighed a number of factors. Given the great distance to New Mexico, he had approved of the marriage. He admonished the priest that in the future he was to follow instructions in all cases. The petitioners and witnesses were to be instructed regarding impediments and basis for obtaining a dispensation. Because the petitioners were ignorant, rural people, they could not know or understand the scandalous cause of angusti loci even though they were from honest families. The male petitioner was over 24. The parish priest should have explained the problems to the couple.
