Okay- happy dance first. After years of searching for Domingo's, I found him. Now to admit my shortcoming : I kept looking for the month and year he was born and if I didn't find him in February, I tried another parish. Problem was that I totally forgot these are baptismal records and the first date given was the baptismal date NOT the birth date like in marriages. (Duh!)
Okay- I know you all know this but I can't figure out why it took me this long to figure it out. I do feel pretty - should I say "dumb" (?!!!) for not remembering this. So I'm putting this out there just it helps someone else. Also- he was baptized in a different parish than Clemente, his brother, whom Margaret found for me. Tomight, as I was studying Clem's record was when i realized I needed to look months beyond the birthdate (which I knew, in this case) since they were usually baptized within a few months of birth. THANK YOU so much for all your help. Yay!!
