1862 Birth Record of Maria Candelaria Pena
Last Names of Nuevo Leon

This is the February 2, 1862, Birth Record of Maria Candelaria Pena, she is my 2nd great-grandmother.

The civil registration record is dated February 13, 2862. It states that Maria Candelaria is the daughter of Trinidad Peña Garza and Maria Antonia Rodriguez. It mentions that both her parents are from rancho El Arcabuz, so we can safely assume that she was born there.

The record also states that she was born on February 2, 1862. Through other sources we know that her paternal grandparents are Jose Jesus de la Trinidad de la Peña and Maria de San Juan de la Garza. Her maternal grandparents are Jose Jesus Rodriguez and Maria Guadalupe Garcia.

She grows up to marry Jose Anastacio Lopez and I have found nine children for them. For information on ancestors and descendants visit https://lasvillasdelnorte.com/database/
