Translation from Spanish to English

“In Villar de Ciervo [Village of the Deer], diocese of Ciudad Rodrigo and province of Salamanca, today the first day of October November of one thousand eight hundred eighty four, I, the undersigned priest of the only church of St. Augustine solemnly baptized a girl who was born at twelve at night of the twenty third day of the last month of this same year, and who was given the name Josefa, legitimate daughter of my parishioners Manuel Ribero, miller, and Orofila Gonzalez, natives of this village; paternal grandparents Jose Ribero and Agapita Serradilla, a native of Guadapero, and all the others of this village; maternals Agustin Gonzalez and Ana Maria Garcia now deceased; the godparents were Josefa and ?

Josefa Rivero is my husband’s great grandmother. She was born on 23 October 1884 in Villar de Ciervo and died on 17 November 1937 in the same village. She was married in the same church of her baptism, St. Agustin’s of Villar de Ciervo, on 23 January 1904, to Manuel Martin. She had four children, Maria Joaquina, born 1904, Nicolas, Luisa Antonia, born 1906, and Maria Consuelo, born 1908. The youngest daughter, Consuelo, was my husband’s grandmother.

If you know Spanish, you will see that the spelling is very old fashioned here:  Ribero=Rivero, vorado=borrado
