- Description
- Documents confirming property rights and holdings in the state of Sonora by Mexican or Spanish royal officials. Most documents concern the Gutierrez family, of San Miguel de Horcasitas and owners of the Rancho San Marcial in Sonora, which may suggest that they collected the documents as a legal record of their property ownership. The documents bear royal or state stamps that establish their bona fide nature. Some documents clearly state that they are copies taken from the originals. The documents are in Spanish.
