This is the September 26, 1692 Marriage record of my wife's 7th great grandparents Joseph Villarreal and Maria Oropeza in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico.
Unfortunately this record does not mention whom the parents are but form other records we know that the parents of Joseph Villarreal are Bernabe Villarreal and Isabel Garza. The parents of Maria are Manuel Perez de Oropeza and Maria Treviño de Renteria.
The witnesses are listed as Geronimo Cantu, Nicolas de Treviño, and Nicolas Barrera.

Hello again. I am a direct ancestor of Capt Bernabe Villarreal + Isabel Garza and their daughter Antonia Villarreal+Capt Nicolas Gutierrez de Lara. Antonia is the sister to the subject of this post, Joseph Villarreal. Capt Bernabe Villarreal is 12 generations back from me, which makes him my 8th (?) great-grandfather. You mention that the parents of Joseph are not mentioned in the marriage record, but that you know who they are from other documents. I would like to know which documents because I am finding many of the marriage records from the late 1600s do not mention parents names. And I don’t know where to look for them.
I have to look for it but I think I got it from the Marriage Investigation of Guadalajara book. I just sent you an email with the line connecting to Joseph Villarreal and Maria Oropeza.
These are my ancestors also. HOW COOL IS THAT!

Thanks Danny Villarreal
Looking for my distant cousin names Alma Schutz she and I had worked on Juan trevino Garcia Saldivar and Simon JudasThadeo de Trevino and Peche etc.
You can find her on our facebook group.
They are my 7th great grand parents as well!! Hola, primo! Now maybe I can get some info straight. I have as my 6th ggfather, one of their sons, Juan Antonio V. who married, Rosalia Flores. Because I could not find any documentation on either, I reached out to Crispin. I got tons of info from him! However, he connects me to Jose Antonio V. and wife Ma. Catarina Hinojosa instead of Juan Antonio and Rosalia; and has Jose Antonio V who married Gertrudis Vega as their son. I thought JoseAV was Juan Antonio and Rosalia’a son! There is no mention of Juan Antonio and Rosalia in Crispin’s info!!! What to do??? My connection?? Jose Antonio and Gertrudis Vega have Juan Antonio V who marries Maria Andrea Zamora whose son Jose Manuel V who has Hilario V by 2nd wife Ma. Rosalia de la Garza. Hilario and Isabel Abrego have Librada V. Librada married Jose Francisco Ochoa and they have my grandmother Josefina Ochoa who married Juan Sanchez. They in turn have my father, Gilberto Sanchez.

Hi Moises, Jose de Villarreal de la Garza and Maria de Oropeza are also my ascendants. I am having a hard time documenting the marriage of Miguel de Villarreal m. to Josepha Chapa y Lopez from Vallecillo Nuevo Leon. Information was sent to me about Miguel’s father, but at the moment it is not documented yet, by me. The fallowing was found on family search and Miguel is supposed to be the son of Francico de Villarreal and Petrona Rodriguez Chapa. His parents are Josea Villareal de la Garza and Maria de Oropeza, maternal grandparents are Manuel Perez de Oropeza and Maria de Renteria. On Jose de Villarreal I have his parents as Cap. Bernabe de Villarreal de la Garza and Izabel de la Garza Falcon Garcia. Bernabe’s parents as Cap. Diego de Villarreal y Beatriz de las Casas Navarro. Izabel’s parents, Francisco de la Garza Falcon and Juana Gutierrez de Lara Garcia.
On Petrona Rodriguez Chapa I have her parents as Valerio Rodriguez de Carbajal Longoria and mother as Michaela Chapa ( Dont have any more on her) on Valerios parents I have Nicolas Rodriguez de Carbaja; (Alcalde Mayor de Monterrey) and Ana Longoria

Joseph de Villarreal and Maria Oropeza are my 7th great-grandparents as well. This is through Joseph Antonio Villarreal and Maria Catarina Hinojosa. I am fairly new to working on my ancestry and a little curious about other avenues of research. The only real research has been through Ancestry.com and the internet. Through the internet is where I found this website. Any suggestions?
Try Familysearch.org also look for books like the Villarreal one here; https://lastnamesofnuevoleon.com/villarreal/
My search stops at my great great grandparents doretio and ignacia Villarreal . My great great grandpa doretio Villarreal was born in Mexico In 1877 and that is the last thing I’m getting from research .
