Last Names of Nuevo Leon

This is the 1679 marriage of my eighth great grandparents Joseph Cavazos de la Garza and Jacinta Fernandez de Castro de la Cerda. They got married in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico back in January 8th 1679. They were the first marriage of that year. Unfortunately this document does not indicate whom their parents are but through other sources I have found out that the parents of Joseph are Juan Cavazos and Elena de la Garza. The parents of Jacinta are Diego Fernandez de Castro and Ana Maria Cerda.
