Hello, does anyone have any information on Ignacio López de Elizalde & Maria Cano? I have hit a road block. I know that they were both born sometime between the 1660s - 1670s and for some reason I cannot recall I have their place of birth as Aguacalientes. I tried finding where I got that information but for the life of me cannot retrieve it. I have seen some other people state his parents as Nicolas López de Elizalde y Luevana and Juana de Ortega y Bonilla although I don't want to just add parents without proper documentation. Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks,
Vanessa

Thank you so much for the information. My only question is how can I be sure that these are his parents/this is him and not another person by the same name? I was unable to find a marriage document for Ygnacio and Maria Cano.
