I would like to try to locate a digital copy of a document in the Archivo General de la Nación, Mexico, Inquisicion.  Origins of New Mexico Families cites the document as "AGN, Mex., Inq., t. 608, f. 427.  This record supposedly supports either that he was a native of Santa Fe, his marriage to María de Tapia, or both.  I believe I have found the Inquisicion records but I don't know how to locate this exact document, or if I am even in the ballpark.  I would really appreciate any help I can get.  Thanks!!

First, thank you so much for responding.

Origins of New Mexico Families says his name is Alonso "Jola" Romero but his birth name is Alonso Cadimo.  He was a criado (special servant) of Felipe Romero and took his name. The document I am looking for is regarding him. 

Although I do want to find this record, it is more important to me for someone to show me how to locate records in the AGN. Apparently I've learned enough Spanish to pull information from the church records but not enough to work my way through a modern website.

Thanks again!!
