1 In the early 1790s, Ignacio Olaso y Martiri (b. 1749), the first pastor of the former Concepción, was the ecclesiastical judge for Guayaquil: Archivo de la Curia Diocesana de Guayaquil (ACD/G), Asuntos Judiciales (AJ), IV, doc. 13, Expediente sobre precedencia entre el Dr. Ignacio Olaso, Vicario de la Provincia de Guayaquil, y el Dr. José Ignacio de Cortazar, Cura de la Iglesia Matriz (Cuenca, 7.X. 1793); ACD/G, AJ, IV, doc. 11, El señor doctor Ignacio de Olaso con el señor doctor Ignacio Cortazar por ofensas por escrito (Guayaquil, 16.III.1794).

As late as 1952, there was “Una caratula que dice: N°1. Libro de Matrimonios desde 1655 hasta 1694” (sic), but there was “nada en su interior”: ACD/G-6, Ignacio José de las Heras, “Archivo Parroquial: los tres libros primeros de bautismos, matrimonios y defunciones de la Iglesia Matriz, hoy parroquia de la Catedral, de la Ciudad Nueva de Guayaquil” (unpublished study).

9 The second inventory (i.e., that of 1862), which repeats and updates the first, and third (1874), which supplements the second, will be published in Documentos para la historia de la Iglesia en la Costa del Ecuador, 1688–1874, compiled and edited by Michael T. Hamerly (in preparation).
10 Among these should be the three legajos from 1687–1852 of cofradía, parish, tithe, fábrica de Iglesia and other accounts mentioned by Vogel, Christian, “Los archivos coloniales del Ecuador,” Revista del Instituto Ecuatoriano de Historia Eclesiástica, 1 (1974), 189–227, 210.Google Scholar
11 ACD/G, Registros Parroquiales (RP)-1. During the colonial period Chongón was a doctrina de indios and entrusted to the Dominicans as was also Daule: Jerves, Alfonso A., “El fundador de Santo Domingo en Santiago de Guayaquil,” BCIH. 7:12/17 (1947), 91–101, 98.Google Scholar Chongón was supplanted by Santa Elena as the seat of the doctrina sometime between 1740 and 1760, and Santa Elena secularized in 1761: Flores, Carlos Alberto, Pueblos y paisajes del Guayas y el Morro y su comarca (Quito, 1953), 26–27, 148.Google Scholar Thereafter Chongón was nominally a vice parish, sometimes of Santa Elena, sometimes of the Sagrario. For a list of the known registers of these parishes, see Hamerly, , “Registros parroquiales e inventarios de Iglesias del litoral,” RA HG, 6:12 (dic. 1977), 25–69, 46, 54.Google Scholar It is possible that additional registers from the colonial period or coeval copies thereof may turn up in the Archivo del Convento Máximo de Santo Domingo in Quito.

13 Not all scholars agree with this chronology, but this is not the place to parade the sources on which it is based. They will be cited in full in Hamerly, Historical Demography of Santiago de Guayaquil, 1535–1950 (in preparation). In the interim, the curious and the skeptical are referred to Hamerly, “Registros parroquiales” (see note 10).

20 The only historian other than the author to have researched cofradías of Guayaquil is the late Huerta, Pedro José, “Las cofradías guayaquileñas,” CHA, 3:9 (1953), 167–220.Google Scholar Either because he was misled by de las Heras who was not about to let a liberal into the ACD/G, or colleagues, including some who knew better and were jealous of their sources, Huerta concluded that there were no surviving cofradía materials in the ACD/G.
