Matrimonios 1752 of Huejuquilla Curious about the drawing of bird in book
I am still trying to find the defunto record of my great great great great granfather Francisco Madera whose wife is Maria Leocadia De Huizar.

Here is another bird, this time with a baptism. However, i wonder if it is a calligraphy exercise? Looks a little like a glyph, just the bird's head and some lines or letters under it. Hope someone will take a look. The person in the entry is not on my tree, i am just plain curious.

That one I've seen somewhere else, I just can't recall where, I even remember a discussion about it. I think in this case is a symbol, the glyph, the three "birds" over horizontal lines, and in the bottom the hand pointing at the year.

They were in deed good at their writing, but I doubt they could actually draw other than the calligraphy ornamentation, in either case ink and paper was a bit of a luxury still, therefore those (like the bird) are nice findings among the records.
