A Cocorote mine register recorded a birth on 9 August 1643 in a ledger titled “Memoria de los negros y negras que nacen en mi tiempo.” The child’s name is not preserved in the published summary. The entry offers a rare trace of family life amid mine labor, while its inclusion in a demographic register reflects how colonial recordkeeping counted births within a coerced workforce.
