The document says:
D. Serafin C. Blanco, priest of Sta. Maria of Riveras, in the ecclesiastical jurisdiction of Pravia, under the bishop and province of
Oviedo. Certify: that en the book of baptisms which begins en the year One Thousand Eight Hundred and Sixty, on page One Hundred Twenty-Five, is found the record which states:
On the twenty-seventh day of April of One Thousand Eight Hundred Sixty-Five, I the authorized parish priest of
Santa Maria of Riveras solemnly baptized a male child on this same day who's name is Jose Antonio the legitimate son of D. Antonio Tomargo and of Da. Delfina
Menendez residents of this [town].
Paternal grandparents are D. Pedro [Tomargo] and Da. Manuela
Sanchez natives of S. Pedro de Coalla (Grado - don't know what this indicates) Maternal [grandparents] D. Manuel
Menendez and Da. Maria
Arias of this [town].
The godparents were [the child's] maternal grandparents, to whom I advised the spiritual parentage and new parentage which they as godparents have taken upon themselves and in truth I sign on said day. Manuel
Lopez Villabille (?)
This copy conforms with the original and to attest to this I sign and seal the present [copy] in the [parish of]
Santa Maria de Riveras on the sixth of August, 1908.
