  2. About this record

    A MAN NAMED PEDRO LERENA, A MORENO ORIENTAL OF THIRTY, SINGLE, BURIED AT THE MATRIZ ON 1 NOVEMBER 1860 - NEW TO THIS ARCHIVE, FOUND 15 November 2026. The names column has 'Pedro Lerena'; the entry (Libro 15, folio 19, frame 1539) gives him as a moreno, oriental, thirty years of age, single, who died on 31 October 1860 and was buried the next day. NOT ANY PEDRO LERENA ALREADY HELD: not Pedro LERENA Vega (born 1828, who lived on to 1896), not the Pedro A.

    Read on

    Lerena who married in 1863, and not the Italian-born Pedro Lerena of Jesus Maria (born about 1842). He is entered with no parents and no wife, and the book's 'moreno' marks him as a man of African descent, as it marks Rosa Lerena, mother of the infant Lucas of 1855 - that is a likeness of the entries, not a link, and no tie between them is claimed. Kept apart; nothing here ties him to any household of this archive.

Where this comes from

Montevideo, Iglesia Matriz (Catedral), Religious Death Records, Libro 15 de Difuntos (from 23 March 1860; DGS film 007713385 frame 1539, folio 19; no ark held for this frame), the entry of 1 November 1860 - PLATE READ 15 November 2026 (found in the names column of a whole-leaf sheet, then the entry opened and zoomed)
