Re: [ranchos] "hija natural" vs added name of man-general question

[Olivia Jaurequi-Reyes <ojaurequireyes@...>]

I have seen both Dolores and Maria used as men's names
on many records.  Often Maria comes from the given
name Jose Maria  My great-great grandfather's given
name was Jose Dolores.  His marriage record shows that
he used only Dolores when he married my great-great
grandmother.
