I put out a request for someone to look up the marriage record and both Toni and Ida answered with the following information: "Pg 152, Nuestra Senora de los Dolores- Arroyo Hondo: Sanches - Trujillo 1-18-1855 J. Rufino s/o Maria Juana Sanches and Maria Leonor d/o Antonio Trujillo and Maria Jacques (dec) originally from Abiquiu. Rio Colorado" It would appear to me that Rufino's father was either deceased at the time of his marriage OR that he was the "natural" son of Juana Sanches and later changed his name to Wilkins, maybe finding out who his real Father was, OR as I stated before, it's a transcriber error. We will continue to investigate this. Nonetheless, this gives us another generation back on Leonore and we should be able to follow that. If anyone can add to this please feel free to do so. Karen
