Is anyone familiar with Sagrario de Zacatecas??? What towns belonged to this parish in the early 1600-1700's. Also, why did it change names to Iglesia de Santo Domingo in the later colonial years.

Is it similar to Archdiocese de Guadalajara???
I noticed their records go back to as early as 1605. In their "Baptism" records were "Marriages" mixed in.

Also, under "Marriages 1712-1753" were important legal documents with seals that date back to as early as 1634. Some of these documents mention, "Capitanes" "Minas" "Duque de Alburque" These legal documents begin on image 404 and continue for about 100 pages.

Does anyone know what this documents are that would require 3-4 seals???
Thanks

Question regarding Sagrario
According to the RAE dictionary, the Sagrario is a chapel of some Cathedrals used as parrish. That's the case with the Sagrario of the Cathedral of Mexico City. According to the following link, the Santo Domingo Temple took over the affairs of the Zacatecas Cathedral while it was being repaired, maybe they took the books as well:

Mixed records
I've seen this cases of mix records, specially among the older ones, even worst, some had been indexed but just the "christening" side making it look like there is nothing else within the film, it is until one browse the complete records that we find such information. Luckily for me (if I must put it that way) I realized this the first time I ever browse a film, it was a mere coincidence but it kept me aware of it afterwards.
The sealed document is the accounting records concerning the wealth left by Don Vicente de Saldivar, captain and a miner, who apparently owed lots of money to the crown and many other people, the other people (many captains) are trying to get their payments before the authorities take them all, this type of documents were meant to be in the Spanish Archives but I guess this one never made it.
