Re: [ranchos] Family History Films?

[Carol Turner <cdian@...>]

Hi Angie:

In my experience viewing matrimonios versus Informacion matrimonials, Informacion matrimonials are more detailed   They can sometimes be two to three pages and they are usually testimonies of how the bride and groom know each other, testimonies from other family members of how they know the bride/groom etc.  Usually these records are found a few months prior to the marriage possibly a month or two before the actual wedding takes place.  One time I actually lucked out on viewing this type of information in Michoacan records and they listed my maternal great-grandmother's genealogy family tree three generations going back which was wonderful.  On the matrimonios records I usually just find a few paragraphs giving basic information on the marriage, date, padrinos etc., parents and sometimes grandparents are listed if they are still living.

Hope this helps out!

 Does anyone know.....

When I look up information for Mexico, Jalisco, Colotlan - Church
records, it lists the film titles, dates, and number.  Does anyone
know the difference between 'Información matrimonial'
and 'Matrimonios'?  I am looking for information on a marriage that
took place in 1881.  What information will I find in list (1) vs (2)?

(1) Información matrimonial 1880-1882 -  VAULT INTL Film [ 443732 ]
(2) Matrimonios 1875-1896 -  FHL INTL Film [ 443787 ]

Thanks,
Angie
