1837 Baptism of Jose Martin Garza
Last Names of Nuevo Leon

Here you will find the February 9, 1837 Baptism of Jose Martin Garza, my 2nd great-grandfather. It took place in the church of Inmaculada Concepción, Mier, Tamaulipas, Mexico.

The record lists as place of birth as Rancho Santa Teresa and his parents are listed as Rafael Garza and Ramona Garcia.

It also states that he was 11 days old, thus one can conclude that he was born on Jan 30, 1837.
