  Notes	Their marriage record, and a translation into English, from the Find a Grave page for Maria Francisca Lara Bojorques (citation details below): Pueblo de Mocorito, April 3, 1775: Pedro Antonio de Bojorquez y Francisca Lara, coyotes. No se velaron porque se fueron a Monterey. En el Pueblo de Mocorito en tres días del mes de abril de mil setecientos setenta y cinco habiendo precedido las diligencias matrimoniales licencia del cura de Sinaloa, por ser el despachado de aquellas jurisdictions las tres canonicas amonestaciones casamientos en la doctrina cristiana y confesion sacramental como propio paroco, casé in facie eclesia (y no se velé porque están cerradas las velaciones) a Pedro Antonio Bojorquez originario de Sinaloa, expuesto en la casa de Juan Vojorquez y de Ana de Ochoa, vecinos de aquellas jurisdicciones, con Francisca de Lara, coyota originaria de esta jurisdicción, hija legítima de Bautista de Lara y de Francisca Nuñes, Vecinos de esta jurisdicción. Sirvieron padrinos Isidro Gutiérrez y Marcelena Lara: y testigos Gernacio, fiscal, y Salvador, sacristan, y porque conste lo firmo. 03 Apr 1775, La Purisima Concepcion, Mocorito, Sinaloa, Mexico. Pedro Antonio de Bojorquez and Francisca Lara, coyotes. They were not veiled because they left for Monterey. In the village of Mocorito on the 3rd day of the month of April of 1775, the publishing of the marriage documents having been accomplished because the priest of Sinaloa gave license for the three canonical banns to be dispatched from that jurisdiction for a wedding, in conformance with Christian doctrine, and a sacramental confession, to take place as though in his own jurisdiction, I married in church ceremony (but I did not veil them because the veilings are closed) Pedro Antonio Bojorquez originally of Sinaloa, an orphan left at the house of Juan Vojorquez and Ana de Ochoa, residents of that jurisdiction, and Francisca de Lara, a coyote, originally from this jurisdiction, legitimate daughter of Bautista de Lara and Francisca Nuñes, residents of this jurisdiction. Serving as godparents were Isidro Gutiérrez and Marcelena Lara: and witnesses, Gernacio, the fiscal, and Salvador, the sacristan, in certification of which I sign.

• Notes

  She and her husband were step-siblings. The Wikipedia article about her son José María de Jesus Alviso says that Maria Bojorquez was, with her future husband Francisco Xavier Alviso, one of the children accompanying the 1774-76 de Anza expedition from Mexico to Northern California.
