Census

Excellent report on the reduction of various Janos and jocames bands at Casas Grandes. A step by step description of the process; the settlement, the planting of crops, the baptisms and marriages. Gives a list of the Indians involved, their approximate age group-the money paid for sacraments, the gifts given to them by the governor. Also, a false assumption by the local priest that the Cocoyomes and acocolames have resigned themselves to peace. (T. Barnes) (1976)

Inconclusive criminal case against a governor of a Jova village. However padre Francisco Maria Piccolo figures large in the case. Also, a census of sorts is provided for two villages giving the names of all males their spouses and children, their relatives and the positions they hold in local government. (T. Barnes) (1976)

Bartolome brings suit against the deputies of San Diego for not fully collecting church funds from all citizens. A list of all citizens and obligations is produced and a few citizens protest paying. (R. Davis) (1975)

Indian troubles involving Conchos and Tarahumaras - efforts to solve problem. Includes pseudo-census of several villages, both named pueblos and Indian rancherias. Also, lists of soldiers participating. Fernandez de Carrion solves the problem. Tarahumaras have entered a hacienda and caused trouble with Indians working there, mostly Conchos. Carrion proceeds to capture some Tarahumaras and they are remitted to various haciendas in the area. This could well be a prelude to the Tarahumara revolt soon to come. A good example of military methodology, both in the field and on paper. (T. Barnes) (u975)

Names, marital status, occupation, etc. (T. Barnes) (1975)

Order for census. Good social history, a order for the census are very detailed, as to what is to be examined and counted and how. How people are to placed into different social (racial) classes. Problems to be faced in this task, especially with hostile Indians, E.g., Tarahumaras. (T. Barnes) (1975)

Gift by citizen to pay for expedition against Indians. Names of soldiers. Names of donors. (T. Barnes) (1975)

Possibly an important document in which the author provides many reasons why a repartimiento of Indians to work in the mines would benefit both the area under consideration and the real. Information is provided regarding relations with Indians and a list of Indians residing in several visitas is included in the request. (C. Needham) (1975)

Excellent census data of the mision San Xavier del Bac and its Pueblo de visita, Tucson. Lists all the first names of the Head of household, their women (separate categories for married and not married) and their children. Separate category for widows. (R. Perez) (1976)

Census of Cumuripa mission and its visita of Buenavista. (T. Sheridan) (1978)
