Abstract: This article aims at studying in more detail the marriage behaviour of French women who emigrated to Catalonia in the 16th and 17th centuries within the context of the great migratory wave that the Hispanic Monarchy received. Thus, fir the first time, the Marriage License Books from de Cathedral of Barcelona, compiled in the Barcelona Historical Marriage Database; the marriage records of the Diocese of Barcelona and the French Register of 1637, have been nominally linked. The main results show a high level of geographic and social homogamy in their marriages as a consequence of an important imbalance in the marriage market. In this sense, for every nine French men, we find only one French woman. Likewise, the women were gathered in the lowest layers of the society, declaring that they were basically daughters of peasants and journal laborers.
