Chris, this all depends on which years you're looking for. In most parishes this occured at the same time as baptism and in some parishes shortly there after.

Hey all,

I was hoping for some quick guidance. I requested and
received the baptism microfilm to determine the names
of the parents of my great-grandfather Nicanor Pineda,
born in Tlaltenango.

The problem is that this is the second time, where I
haven't found him for the timeframe in which he was
born.  This has led me to believe that perhaps he was
born in some other city around Tlaltenango and later
moved there.

Anyway, I'm requesting the marriage records for the
timeframe I think he was later married in Tlaltenango.
But I was also thinking that I could request the
Confirmation records but I really have no idea when
this usually takes place in someone's life -- I was
not raised Catholic.

On another note, I've noticed a page after each year
of baptism records that says "Expuestos" followed by a
series of names.  Does anyone know what this means?

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks,

Chris Pineda
