I don't have a whole lot of money, but I would be happy to barter. If you can translate 18th and 19th Century New Mexico Spanish into English, I would trade for research hours. I can research on Ancestry.com; New Mexico baptismal, marriage and burial records; Spanish Archives records; New Mexico newspapers; New Mexico death certificates prior to 1940; and other records pertaining to New Mexico. I'd be happy to copy any of these records as a PDF or JPEG and email them to you - or create a family history report for you.
I have two documents that I wish to translate: the first one is from the Spanish Archives of New Mexico, is from 1727 and is 14 pages long. Below is a JPEG of the the first page of the document. Click on the document to see if you can translate it.
The second record is a transfer of land from 1841. It's only two pages long.
I can send you PDF files for both documents.
If you think that you can help me out on this, send me an email at abqbobcat@nmia.com. Thanks.
Update: Patricia Sanchez Rau translated this document for me a decade ago. She and I wrote an article in the June 2014 "New Mexico Genealogist" that used the information in this document.
