Notes:
193 – Juan Bautista Cornejo, párvulo Indio Pima
En el año del Señor de mil setecientos setenta y ocho, en diez y siete del mes de noviembre, Juan Bautista Cornejo, como de seis meses, hijo legítimo de Francisco Cornejo y Nicolasa Legarra, probablemente en unión y comunión de Nuestra Señora Madre Iglesia, volvió su alma a Dios en el monte, por haberle notado alguna respiración haber echarle el agua a los pies de su madre que lo acababa de parir, por cuya probabilidad fue su cuerpo sepultado el día diez y ocho de dicho mes en la iglesia de esta misión de San José de Tumacácori. Para que conste lo firmé dicho día, mes, y año ut supra.
Fray Joaquín Antonio Belarde (rúbrica), Ministro de Doctrina por Su Majestad

193 – Juan Bautista Cornejo, infant Pima Indian
In the year of the Lord 1778, on the 17th of November, Juan Bautista Cornejo, who was about six months old, the legitimate son of Francisco Cornejo and Nicolasa Legarra, returned his soul to God on the mountain, probably in union and communion with Our Lady Mother Church. It was observed that he breathed in water at the feet of his mother when her water burst as she began to give birth. Because of that probability, his body was buried on the 18th of the said month in the church of this Mission of San José de Tumacácori. In certification of this I signed on the said day, month, and year as above.
Friar Joaquín Antonio Belarde (rubric), Minister of Doctrine for His Majesty
