This paper provides notes from records of the inspection tours conducted by Archbishop Basilio Sancho de Santa Justa y Rufina on the different towns and institutions that he visited in four phases from 5 February 1773 to 16 November 1775. The notes provide information on each town's parish priest, the physical state of the church and other facilities, demographic data, and comments on the people's moral situation. Against the friars' accusations that the native clergy lacked intellectual acumen and sufficient training, the archbishop recorded his evaluation of the individual priests he observed. The notes yield insights on the lives of ordinary people, particularly the Tagalog, in the Spanish Philippines
