Hi Danny,

You didn't provide much information on this family. What is Maria Getrudis Gomez's husbands name. Who are their children? Do you have any other information on them? Some of the Martel family members also used Gallegos as a surname.

Mr. Ricci,

I don't really have any information on Miguel Gómez and María Martel other than from the IM of the marriage on April 15, 1725 of their daughter Gertrudis Gómez and Juan de Santiago Macías. Here is the IM: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HT-DYM7-NTY

On the actual marriage record, the parents aren't named, but their daughter Gertrudis Gómez is listed as María Martel like her mother.

México, Aguascalientes, registros parroquiales, 1620-1962, database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:N87P-TY7 : 16 February 2017), Javiera Lopes, ; citing Death, Asunción de María, Aguascalientes, Aguascalientes, Mexico, parroquias Católicas, Aguascalientes (Catholic church parishes, Aguascalientes

Is Juan Santiago Macias the son of Nicolas Macias Valadez and Maria Antonia de la Fuente? If he is then I think his name is Juan Xavier de Santiago Macias Valadez.

Danny,

Juan de Santiago Macías Is listed as español in his first wife's burial record. Juan de Santiago was a widower when he married his Maria Getrudis Gomez Martel. Many times they don't list the parents of a widower when he remarries, they just list his first wife and when she passed away. That was how I knew where to look for her burial record. I checked their marriage record to see if his parents are listed there but they are not. The first wife is named Francisca Xaviera Lopez, not just Xaviera. They were also married twice with the second making the marriage more official. The first marriage may have been in Jalisco two years earlier away from her family so they married again in front of her family.

Is Juan de Santiago Macias your ancestor?
