Can somebody translate this document for me please? They're my great great grandparents (Jose Garcia & Maria Del Carmen Alonso). Thanks

Here are the basics. There was no impediment to the marriage. There is a document in the packet that mentions that the groom was excused from military service. There were copies of their baptism certificates. Here are the highlights.

Thank you so much for your great help! I speak Portuguese I can understand a word here and there in Spanish but I can't understand hardily anything. Did you see anything mentioning that he was executed by the Spanish army as a desertor? I had an impression that he was first in the army and then joined the Revolutionaries and was executed. This is why I'm so excited to learn all that was written in this document.

The record said he was not a desertor. That is the note in the margin on the left side of the third page. The first two pages are the transcripts of the baptism records. If you wanted, you could try contacting the military archive in Segovia to see if they had any information. https://patrimoniocultural.defensa.gob.es/en/centros/archivo-general-militar-segovia/portada If you don't speak Spanish, I recommend that you write the message in Portuguese and use Google Translate to translate it into Spanish. It gives a better translation that way rather than going from English to Spanish. Good luck.
