Catalina MARTINEZ (madrina, 1812)
Godmother to a child born into slavery in Sancho Llerena's household - 'MADRINA CATALINA MARTINEZ, a quien instrui'. She is entered because she is the only person the record puts beside Maria Mercedes who was not her owner, and because this register names the godparents of every other child on its pages. WHO SHE WAS IS NOT KNOWN: the act gives her no title - no Dona - which in this book usually marks a woman who is not of the propertied class, and it gives her no husband, no origin and no relationship to the household. Nothing else in this archive names her.
No record here names a parent, spouse, child or sibling for this person. This archive calls that unplaced: held, named, shown with the record that produced them, and not tied to a household on anything less.
