Last Names of Nuevo Leon

The following is the 1695 marriage of my wife’s 7th great grandparents Nicolas de Ayala and Antonia de la Garza Montemayor. They got married in Monterrey Nuevo Leon, Mexico. The following document indicates that the parents of Nicolas where Joseph de Ayala and Ana de Benavides and at the time of the marriage both were deceased by then. The document indicates that Nicolas as well as his father were captains in the Spanish army. The document also indicates that Antonia’s parents were Gabrield de la Garza and Clara Garza de Montemayor. The document also indicates that there was a dispensation for a third degree. I have yet to find this dispensation.
