This is the February 21, 1796 Baptism of Maria Antonia Salinas who was baptized in Cerralvo, Nuevo Leon, Mexico. She is my wifes 4th great-grandmother.
She was the daughter of Jose Antonio Agustin Selvera Salinas and Maria de San Juan de la Garza.
The record mentions that she was 15 days old when baptized so this helps us determine that she was born on February 6, 1796.
Her godparents are listed as Esteban Lopez de Viera and Maria Antonia Salinas. I could not find any family relationship to her or her parents.
Maria Antonia grows up to marry Jose Maria Flores the son of Jose Antonio Flores and Maria Isabel Salinas. They got married in Cerralvo on February 6, 1815 and I will share that record on a future post with you.
