There are several different types of primary and secondary sources for researching hidalguías. The best sources include the following.


# '''Hidalgo Censuses''' (''Padrones de Hidalgo'') - in many cases these censuses were created to document those that were exempt from paying common taxes (pechos), and those exempt from military conscription (quintas). The censuses were taken locally. These censuses are normally archived in municipal archives. The censuses cover a wide range of time periods between the late 1400s to the early 1800s. The information in these census records is usually limited, but at times can give familial relationships (spouse's name and children's names), and birthplace information.
