during the prenuptial investigation proceeding in her marriage to Jacinto
Sánchez
(ONMF: 280).
It is difficult to
account for the Rodarte family after 1697. For the early 1700s, documents
relating only to Baltazar Rodarte (ONMF: 268) have been located in the Spanish Archives of New
Mexico, and there are no early Rodarte baptismal records that have been located
and extracted. By 1707, Baltazar Rodarte, b.ca. 1681, was married with Sebastiana de
la Vega,
b.ca. 1686. It appaears that Baltazar had been previously married with Francisca
García
(ONMF: 268).
Cristóbal
de Castro
(ONMF: 351), a native of Zacatecas and a son of Miguel de Castro Rodarte and Juana Guerrero, was married at Santa Cruz
in 1705 with Bernarda Gamboa. They became residents of the community of Río
Arriba in the jurisdiction of San Juan. A daughter of this couple, Juana de
Castro,
was married at San Juan on 1 December 1731 with Lazaro Sáes (q.v. SÁES)

Ambrosio
Sáes
(ONMF: 100) was the father of Agustín Sáes and Juan Gañan (RCR: 526-27). Apparently,
Gañan
was a mestizo
raised as an Indian. Gañan
was living with the Pueblo Indians at Santa Fe when Vargas, with his troops and
colonizers, arrived at the city in December 1693.
Agustín
Sáes
(ONMF: 100, 278 & 390) was married three times. His first wife was Leonor de
Herrera
and his second wife was Antonia Márquez as identified by Chávez. His third wife was
Pascuala
Vásquez
(ONMF: 390), widow of Juan Romero, by whom he had at least one son, Lazaro Sáez (aka Sáenz). Lazaro was married at the church
of San Juan de los Caballeros on 1 December 1731 with Juana de
Castro,
named as a daughter of Cristóbal de Castro (q.v. RODARTE) and Bernarda Gamboa from Río Arriba. In this
record, the names of Lazaro's
parents are given.
Lazaro
Sáez and Juana de
Castro appear
to have settled at Santa Fe. The 1750 census of Santa Fe lists Juana de
Castro without
her husband who was perhaps deceased by this time. In her houshold were these
children, presumably hers by Lazaro Sáes: Antonia Paula [Sáes; perhaps the person of
this named married with Luis Pineda and a resident of Santa Fe], Santiago [Sáes], Manuel [Sáes], and three other children
not named. This family may be one of two progenitors of the Sáes family of
Santa Fe.

VARELA
JARAMILLO
Pedro
Varela Jaramillo
(ONMF: 110) and his wife Lucía Madrid were the parents of two sons and apparently
three daughters. Chávez identified the two sons, Juan Varela
Jaramillo
and Cristóbal Varela Jaramillo (ONMF: 110). The three sisters of these brothers have
been identified from a couple of diligencias matrimoniales and a record
from the Spanish Archives of New Mexico. These sisters were:
1. Lucía Varela, md. with Bartolomé
Romero
(ONMF: 97-8).
