Good day.
I am Sandra Garza Aceves, a new member. I am grateful for the opportunity to join the forum. It immensely helpful in my investigation and I am eager to learn more.
I am currently investigating. Francisco Antonio Gallaga, son of Juan de San Pedro Gallaga and Joaquina de Villaseñor and María Inés de la Torre, daughter of Cristóbal de la Torre and María Margarita de Aceves. Kindly find the link to the marriage record below(Tepatitlán, 1764).
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:9392-KMS6-D6?i=347&wc=3J8D-…
I have several questions. Is this Francisco Antonio the brother of Doña Ana María Gallaga Mandarte y Villasenor? I may be incorrect, yet I thought she was an only child.
Did María Inés de la Torre also use the name María de Jesús? Could she be the mother of Gertrudis Gallaga, born in 1769 in Tepatitlán

I would greatly appreciate any direction you could provide.
Un cordial saludo

Francisco Antonio Gallaga
Welcome to Nuestros Ranchos, Sandra.
Regarding your first question, Antonio Gallaga and Ana Maria Gallaga are siblings.
According to the marriage record you are citing, Antonio Gallaga was Orig[inari]o del Pueblo de Guaniqueo.
Ana Maria Gallaga was christened 11 May 1731 in la Parroquia de S[an]ta Maria de Uaniqueo. There is a heading at the top of the page that reads: ACTA de la Ylustre progenitora del Señor Cura Hidalgo: Ana Maria Gallaga.
Regarding your second question, I think, the name of Antonio's wife in the marriage record is wrong. Maria Ynes is Maria de Jesus. According to the marriage record Maria "Ynes" was living in el Puesto de la Piedra Herrada, the same place cited in the marriage record of their daughter Maria Gertrudis.
Two more christening records of children of Francisco Antonio Gallaga and Maria de Jesus de la Torre placing them in la Piedra Herrada:
