Need Insight on listing of race on death records

Por LasFlores | 10:11 PM MST, Mié Marzo 01, 2017

This question is from another genealogy site and I'm hoping someone can help this gentleman. The records are from Guanajuato, Mx -sorry. This is a copy & paste of his question.*****Hi everyone. I’m hoping some of you might be able to give me some insight into the listing of race on death records in Guanajuato in 1913 and 1914. I have recently found death certificates for two relatives - a great uncle and a great-great aunt, both of which listed race. They are both listed as Indigena con negra (Indigenous with Black). My initial understanding was that, at least in church records, after 1827 race was no longer indicated unless provided by the family. This is a civil registration and looking through the other records in the database, they all seem to list a race. All are listed as ______ con _______. I can’t find any pattern to how they are listed, such as x race is always listed first, y race is always listed before z, etc. I’ve also noticed in some records a race may be listed twice, such as negra con negra. It would seem to me that it is indicating parental lines, but I can’t find any online source explaining this. I would greatly appreciate any insight anyone might have on how this was recorded or should be interpreted.

Sin raza

Hola Las Flores:

El sistema indicando la raza de las personas perteneció a la época del Virreinato. Desde principios del Siglo XIX se conocieron las ideologías liberales. Los precursores de la Independencia combatieron la división por razas.

A partir de la Independencia en 1821 fueron desapareciendo las distinciones por raza, en unos lugares más pronto que otros, actualmente no es permitido hacer esas distinciones, la excepción es en las zonas indígenas en donde se toman medidas de protección en favor de estas poblaciones.

Saludos

Listing of Race after 1821

I just came up with records from Jalisco that indicated "no indigena" in the 1900's.....I don't place much value on these records, as they take into consideration how a person looked, whether they spoke the indigenous tongue, etc....
