La Villa Nueva de Santa Cruz de la Cañada de los Mexicanos Espanoles del Rey Nuestro Senor Don Carlos Segundo was established in April of 1695 by Governor and Captain General of New Mexico, Don Diego de Vargas. The first recorded baptism from Santa Cruz in the archives of the Archdiocese of Santa Fe does not state that Santa Cruz was a parish or that there was a church there. The record simply states that the baptism of a child given the name of Maria Lucia took place "En esta Villa de Santa Cruz" on September 25, 1710. The record further states that the child was "de nación Apache" and that her godmother was Sebastiana de la Serna. The priest who signed the record was Fray Jose Antonio de Torres. The baptismal record is located in a fragment baptismal register from Santa Cruz catalogued as a Loose Document from the Mission Period numbered 1710 number 7. Included in this book is a list of abbreviations and phrases used in the publication, and a name index. Names are indexed three ways: 1) by name of person baptized, 2) by parents' names, and 3) by godparents, grandparents, and others named.

The Pojoaque Valley was first settled by Europeans shortly after Oñate came to New Mexico. The Valley is on the Camino Real between Santa Fe and Santa Cruz de la Cañada, and it stretches no more than 15 miles in any direction. The baptismal records extracted in this volume are for Pojoaque and Nambé and the various small communities in the area. There are three indexes: an index of baptisms, an index of parents, and an index of grandparents, godparents and patrons. The book also contains an explanation of abbreviations and of Spanish language phrases. These baptismal records are essential for those who can trace their ancestors back to the Pojoaque Valley. All profits from books produced and sold by the New Mexico Genealogical Society are used to preserve New Mexico history and records.
