Hello Nuestros Ranchos Friends,
Anyone with members from the vast Pelayo family surely can trace their roots to Miguel Cayetano Villegas Pelayo and Maria Lucia Angela Vidro Lopez Andrade. But the family of Matriarch, Lucia Angela, has remained elusive as we have never found a marriage or birth for her. I may have resolved the family links, but it is confusing and complicated so I am presenting my findings so that others can confirm or disprove what I believe to be true and possibly add other data.
The Dispensa of Alejo Rafael Pelayo and Lina del Carmel Lopez
Dated: 28 January, 1804 is important primarily because it
provides us the succession of names for Lucia's maternal line (however I believe the tree is erroneous in the connection to Antonio Lopez). In researching Lazaro and Eugenio I learned that they also used the names Lopez and Toscano interchangeably.
Geneological Tree: Antonio Lopez
Lazaro----------------------------------Lucia
Eugenio---------------------------------Francisca
Nicolas---------------------------------Lucia
Lina------------------------------------Alexo
(Bride) (Groom)

The key Dispensa that was most helpful to me is for Jose Maria Ponse and Maria Nepocemia Luna dated: 23 March, 1819.
Genealogical Tree: Domingo Lopez/Lucia Toscano
Quiteria Lopez-------Sisters------Francisca Lopez
Agustina Rosa Padilla-------------Rosa Vidro
Jose Luis Ponse-------------------Celia Luna
Jose Maria Ponse------------------Maria Nepocemia Luna
This tree gives us the specific names of Domingo Lopez and Lucia Toscano
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1942-31173-11176-8?cc=1937239&…
The marriage for: Domingo Lopez and Lucia Toscano took place on 8 February, 1701
in Tecolotlan. It is important to note that Lucia also uses the name Solis and her parents are listed as: Francisco Luis Toscano
Isabel de Zuniga
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-18715-12468-37?cc=1874591&wc…
These are the children I have located for Francisco Luis Toscano and Isabel de Zuniga (It is very important to note that the name Zuniga and Solis are used interchangeably throughout the documents)
This is the baptism for Lucia:

Two children of Domingo and Lucia are:
Rita Quiteria Lopez y Solis, married to Calletano Padilla
Their children were:

and Jose Luis Ponse, married to Maria Barajas
Their son is: Jose Maria Ponse (mentioned in the Dispensa with Maria Antonia Nepucena Luna).
Maria Antonia Nepucena Luna is the illegitimate daughter of: Maria Lucia Luna (also known as Celia) and her birth is actually registered mistakenly in the Burials:
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-18457-72717-14?cc=1874591&wc…
Maria Lucia Luna (widow of Jose Pioquinto Velasco with whom she had several other children) is the daughter of:
Marcelo Antonio Luna (born @ 1743 and buried 4 Feb, 1791
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-18457-73332-11?cc=1874591&wc…
and: Rosa Vidro (Buried 7 Feb, 1803)
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-18457-72379-12?cc=1874591&wc…
I contend that: Josef Antonio Vidro (Burial on 24 May 1749 in Tenamaxtlan: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-18711-37442-27?cc=1874591&wc…)
and: Francisca Lopez (Burial on 23 July, 1757 in Tenamaxtlan, which mentions that she made a Testamento, but I am at a loss at how to locate this:
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-18711-36529-15?cc=1874591&wc…)
are the parents of Rosa Vidro and Maria Angela Lucia Vidro, Lopez, Andrade.
They are also parents of: Isabel Vidro, married to Domingo Medina

I know that I have given many dates and links to this confusing response, but I have tried to give only the basic facts that I think are imperative to understanding the connection. I have other data may be helpful if you have any questions. Please feel free to give your opinion or ask any questions.
Thank you for your interest and assistance,
