Thanks.

Wow!  How could I overlook the age factor?  Even considering Rosalia's fertile period of 19 years (from 1765 to 1784), marrying at eleven seems too farfetched!  :)

MA. DE LA LUZ ROSALIA CASTANEDA LOPES, born in 1745, seems more in line with the possibilities;  just 4 years younger than Josseph Dionicio.  Still, by marrying at 19 plus 19 years of fertile life would put her at 38 years of age, which is totally within normal or acceptable range.

About the other JOSEPH DIONICIO RAYGOSA MOJARRO, I really have to double check every assumption I've made.  The final decision might be possible only by reading the microfilms.
