Chronological, 1522-1915

The chronological series consists of original documents and copies of texts that cover Mexican history from the early years of the Spanish conquest to the Mexican Revolution of the early twentieth century. The series contains ordinances, royal decrees, legal proceedings, reports, speeches and discourses, correspondence, notarial acts, verse, maps, appointments, eulogies, accounts of events, censuses, account books, treasury records, schedules of fees, indices, petitions, church documents and ecclesiastical records, and newspaper articles.

                  7.09 Linear Feet
                  The Luis Alberto Guajardo Collection of Músquiz, Mexico Records contains administrative records from the town of Músquiz, Coahuila, Mexico. The records were collected by Luis Alberto Guajardo, a general in the Mexican Army. Guajardo's military travels allowed him to visit local record offices in Coahuila and research the history of the region. This research led to the formulation of Guajardo's Apuntes Datos y Noticias Para la Historia de Coahuila, a history of the Coahuila region. The Records are arranged in five overlapping chronologies. This order has been maintained from an earlier, unknown processor, perhaps Guajardo himself. The chronologies include circulars issued by the Coahuila government; religious, legal, military, land, water, and mining records pertaining to Musquiz and the Coahuila region; census records, including the documentation of Indians, widows, slaves, and vassals; legal records, including records administering issues of violence against women; documents pertaining to the administration of Indian affairs, particularly those of the Seminole and Apache tribes; and indices of correspondence and decrees in Coahuila, wills, and court proceedings. Also included is material on the founding and history of the Texas region, as well as English language manuscript land petitions, citizenship records, and legal proceedings of Thomas Jefferson Chambers.
