Joseph, Nadine and I just had a conversation about boundary changes
recently. Yes, it is very likely that Colotlan was in the Zacatecas
diocese in earlier times. As for whether or not the records are now
stored in the Guadalajara archdiocese. I'll have to ask Nadine to
see if she knows. Her line is busy right now...
As for the 2nd question, I think I can answer that one. I have looked
at a few of those films and the reason some years appear to be
duplicated is that the original books had lose pages and many of them
are out of order. They appear to have been microfilmed exactly as
they were found. I think you'll find that for example Jan-Feb 1685
will be in one film, March-June in another, etc. but not duplicated.
