Julian Tenorio, a Santo Domingo Pueblo Indian, while still residing at the Pueblo, and on January 20, 1920, was lawfully married to Maria Chavarilla, a San Felipe Indian girl, then residing at the San Felipe Pueblo. The ceremony was performed by a Catholic priest at the Village of Pena Blanca in Sandoval County, in which county both Indian Pueblos indicated are located, although Pena Blanca is not within the boundaries of either Pueblo. The officiating priest performed the ceremony pursuant to a license theretofore secured by the parties to the marriage from the County Clerk of Sandoval County at Bernalillo. Following their marriage they went to the Pueblo of Santo Domingo to reside and there resided as husband and wife, barring intermittent and temporary separations, until December, 1934, when the wife, Maria, went again to her own Pueblo of San Felipe from which she has never returned to reside with the husband, Julian.
