Body opens: 'Lista de jovenes solteros que hay en este pueblo de los Angeles hoy 21 de Nov.bre de 1797.' GLOSS: alferez Pablo Cota, roster of unmarried young men of the pueblo of Los Angeles for military recruitment, 21 Nov 1797. SUBSTANCE: heading stands at the foot of n296; the roster fills the whole of gap leaf n297 and the top of gap leaf n298, closing with the cite p.p. 339 - 340. Each name is followed by the parent response. Names verbatim in order: Jose Maria Valenzuela (father says he is needed but will hand him over voluntarily); Juan Pedro Ruis (father says he is needed but that he asked him and he says he wants to take a plaza at the presidio of Sta Barb.a, and since it is his wish he hands him over); Cayetano Verelas (father voluntarily hands him over for the presidio of San Diego); Juan Lugo (father says he is much needed, being very advanced in years); Bentura Zuniga (father says he is quite ill and disabled and has no other to look after his goods); Cosme Banegas (father says he has no other and is in debt to the habilitacion); Olivera, with Savage noting '(no se puede leer por lo mal encuadernado)', suffers in his sight and has nobody to care for the property of the 4 heirs his father left; Antonio Rosas (father says he is much needed); Teodoro Arellanes (says his father is very advanced and burdened with family, and has no other son); Teodoro Silva (widowed mother says she has nobody else to assist her); Jose M.a Osuna (widowed mother says he is much needed to hold her goods and she has no other son to look after them); Estevan Perez (says he will take the plaza at Sta Barbara or at Monterrey); Domingo Aruz (lives with his father and says he will not take the plaza anywhere but in this presidio); la viuda de Efigenio Ruiz (says she already has one in the plaza and that the one remaining looks after her goods, and if he takes it, it will be in company with his brother); Cornelio Avila (has two grown sons whose will is not expressed because there was no occasion to see them). NOTE: no export record cites pp. 339-340, so this roster is unrecorded; its heading leaf n296 lies outside the assigned gap but its body is the gap.
