Ps there is a death record indexed for raphaelas mother in aguascalientes..The trail goes on!
Sorry Denise for answering so late, I hadn't read you post (about finding Rafael Romo and Rafaela de Aguila as padrinos for a baptism in 1791) until today while reviewing the thread.
So Rafaela de Aguila was alive as late as Jan/1791.
Also, by certification by the Zacatecas priest, Rafael Femate's second wife Joaquina de Salas was buried on the the 19/Aug/1796.
So this constrains the dates for Rafaela’s death.
By the way, I have found Manuel Romo's (son of Rafael Femat, aka Romo, and Rafaela de Aguila) burial date: 9/Feb/1857 in San Buenaventura, Coahuila. It is stated he was a widower and was 69 years old.
If his reported age is to be trusted (most of the time it is not), then he probably was born around 1787-1788. This would predate their marriage. I’m guessing his reported age is off and he probably was born 1789-1790.

Hi Bernardo
I have seen something with the names Aguila and Castorena, mentioned in the baptism you refer to above. Will have to go back and find it! Where did Josepha de Aguila - and her parents - come from...?
Thanks for bringing it to my attention again!
Regards
Denise
