The word you are reading is "rasa" not "vasa." It is a term used in the
liempiza de sangre (purity of blood) documents where witnesses testify that
they know of no Jewish, Muslim or even Lutheran ancestry in the person's
family tree.

Danny thank you for the help and the interesting history of this couple! Not
sure if it is the same Thomas de la Puente, but he certainly fits the bill.
There is another one that is Tomas and Maria Ruis that are not them since
the children of Thomas and Maria Ruis are labelled Espl and there is another
record of tomas married to a sotomayor. I now have to find records of
marriages. As for this Dispensa that is not recorded in the marriage that I
could read 3 generations are given because they are 2nd cousins. I do have
them in my family as in-laws today, tomorrow they could be grandparents who
knows. Anyway, what was more interesting was the different testigos all
stating that the young couple did not know they were cousins but Esteban
Munos stated he overheard they were from his wife Xsabel Nieto. In the
beginning was the priest stating that they had been cleaned of their blood
"the limpiesa de sangre" de toda mala vasa de judios, Moros and they stated
this again and again. I had read it in books but not seen it written. Don't
know what Vasa means. Thanks again for your help here is the Dispensa. the
record ID for Ysabel de Carrion is 9QTN-HK8 ?
