I found in familysearch.org an online book of the diary of Alarcon that went into Texas in 1718.

Here on page 60 of that book online is a list of the census of San Antonio, Texas, Nueva Espana (Mexico) date June 14, 1718. I will have to check Joseph Velasquez, Antonio and Agustin Perez if they are the ones on my family tree which I do have those names on my family tree at that time period.

Hi Denise,

Yes, There is something interesting here in the census of San Antonio 1718. If you compare this census with the census of San Antonio in 1763 where the population got a little bigger in 1763 but they all have the same surnames of the people of 1718.

I see two of them Joseph Velasquez, Antonio and Agustin Perez. If they are the same ones in my family tree. Velasquez was originally from Xerez.
