ALBIZU
Providing
testimony on November 4, 1661, at Santa Fe, doña María de Albizu, age 40 (b.ca. 1621),
declared she was the wife of Sargento Mayor Francisco de Madrid, and refered to doña María de Abendaño
as her sister-in-law. In other testimony, doña María de
Albizu was identied as a daughter of Maese de Campo Tomás de Albizu.
At
the Convento de Jémez on August 2, 1662, Felipe de Albizu (ONMF: 2) declared he
was a native of the Pueblo de “Tzia” (Zia) and the husband of María de Abendaño,
giving his age as 36 (b.ca. 1626) when his testimony was recorded in the
Inquisition’s investigation into Diego Pérez Romero. In the following year,
during May 1663, Felipe de Albizu
was identified as a vecino of the Villa de Santa Fe.
The
above information indicates that doña María de
Albizu and Felipe de
Albizu were siblings and confirms the supposition by Fray
Angélico Chávez that Felipe de Albizu was a son of Tomás de
Albizu (ONMF: 2).

ARAGÓN
Agustín Gerónimo de Aragón and doña Francisca de Quintana, the grandparents of Ignacio de Aragón (ONMF: 127), were residing in Mexico City
as early as 1614. Although the origin of this couple still needs to be
determined, baptismal records for five of their children combined with marriage
records of two of their children help to form a genealogy of the early
generation of the Aragón
family. The names of the godparents of the Aragón-Quintana children may offer some
valuable leads to uncovering addition genealogical information and identifying
the place of origin of Agustín Gerónimo de Aragón and doña Francisca de Quintana.

ARAGÓN
Among the most influential santeros of the “golden age” of Nuevomejicano Catholic devotional art
were José Aragón (b.ca. 1781-89) and José Rafael Aragón (b.ca. 1783-96). The
artwork of these two men, first identified by E. Boyd, is frequently displayed
in many collections of Spanish New Mexico colonial art. Scholars have noticed
similarities in the styles of the Aragón santeros, but it was not previously
known that they were related. The research of Esquibel and Carrillo identifies
José Aragón and José Rafael Aragón as sons of Juan Andrés Aragón and Juana
Gertrudis Domínguez Mascareñas, residents of Santa Fe in the 1780s and the
1790s.
José Aragón married María
Josefa Casados (bt. March 19, 1790, Santa Fe), sister of another santero (José Anastacio Casados). Aragón
and Casados resided in Santa Fe until around 1818-1820, by which time they
moved to the Galisteo area and then settled at Antón Chico by 1828 and then at
Tecolote by 1850. José Aragón mastered his craft as a painter of retablos and a carver of bultos. The region of the Pecos Valley,
in particular the area of San Miguel Del Vado saw an increase in settlement in
the first three decades of the 1800s. It appears, Aragón’s expertise was drawn
upon to decorate local churches, private chapels, moradas and homes. He and his wife were the parents of at least
seven children:
1. Diego Antonio Aragón, bt.
November 17, 1812, Santa Fe. Padrinos:
José Lucero and Josefa Lucero. Diego Antonio Aragón married (1) Teresa Lovato,
daughter of Isidro Lovato and Casilda Tenorio. Known children:
1. María Prudencia Aragón, b.
November 15, 1840, bt. November 25, 1840, San Miguel del Vado. Abuelos paternos named as José Aragón
and María Josefa Casaus.
2. José Francisco Aragón, bt.
March 22, 1843, San Miguel del Vado, 22 days old. Abuelos paternos named as José Aragón and Josefa Casados.
3. María Ricarda Aragón, bt.
April 11, 1849, San Miguel del Vado.
4. Juan José Aragón, b. April
24, 1851, bt. May 6, 1851, San Miguel del Vado.
Diego Aragón, a vecino of los Valles de San Agustín, married
(2) August 11, 1856, Our Lady of Sorrows, Las Vegas, María Pelegrina González, vecina of Los Valles de San Agustín,
daughter of Miguel Albino González and María Juliana Blea.

1821, Santa Fe, daughter of Matías Sena y Fajardo and María Soledad González y
Padilla. Known children:
1. José Macedonio Aragón, b.
February 24, 1849, bt. March 14, 1849, San Miguel del Vado. Padrinos: Macedonio González and María
Manuela Martín.
2. María Dolores Aragón, b.

7. José Ylario (Hilario)
Aragón, bt. November 2, 1828, San Miguel del Vado (Pecos, AASF Roll 6). In this
record, his parents were identified as vecinos
de Antón Chico. The paternal grandparents were recorded as Juan Andrés
Aragón and Gertrudis Domínguez. The maternal grandparents were recorded as José
Casados and Matilde Lucero. The padrinos
were José Candelario Flores and María Luisa Padilla, vecinos de la Cuesta.

José
Rafael Aragón is well known for creating numerous altar screens for northern
New Mexican chapels and churches, as well as for his many surviving retablos and bultos. Aragón first married María Josefa Lucero de Godoy, bt.
April 25, 1785, Santa Fe, daughter of Antonio Lucero de Godoy and María Manuela
Benavides. This marriage took place on July 15, 1815, Santa Fe. From this union
there were born at least seven children, possibly eight:
1. Blas Aragón, b. February 2,
1809, bt. February 5, 1809, Santa Fe, NM; md. June 16, 1830, Santa Fe, María
Francisca Padilla, daughter of Diego Padilla (sexton) and María Rita Ávila.

BENAVIDES
The technique and style of
the bultos of José Manuel Benavides
is considered among the finest of 19th century santeros. José Manuel
was very likely a member of the Benavides clan of the Río Tesuque area. His
parents, José Miguel Benavides and Josefa Vigil were married February 28, 1792,
Santa Fe, and both were deceased by 1819. After the death of his parents, José
Manuel became the ward of the carpinter, Pedro Domínguez, who was a resident of
Río de Tesuque. Domínguez is known for his carving and construction of the
doors of the Santuario de Chimayó.
In 1819, José Manuel
Benavides married María Apolonia Morán, daughter of Antonio Morán and Teodora
González, residents of Río de Tesuque. Benavides and Morán resided in the
community Río de Tesuque until around January 1834, when they resided in the
plaza of San Buenaventura de Chimayó. By 1844, this coupls and their two
daughters were living in the small community of Río Chiquito, situated between
the communities of Quemado (Córdova and Chimayó). Benavides carved the crucifix
that is currently above the main altar in the Church of Santa Cruz. He and
Morán were the parents of two known children:
1. María de Pilar Benavides,
b.ca. 1819-20, most likely at Río de Tesuque; md. May 1836, Santa Cruz, Pedro
Antonio Archuleta (DM 1836, May 2, no. 88, Santa Cruz; see also Fray Angélico
Chávez, "New Mexico Roots, Ltd," 107). Pedro Antonio Archuleta was
born January 15, 1817, and baptized three days later by the priest of the
Church of Santa Cruz de la Cañada. He was a son of José María Archuleta and
María Dionisia (aka Leonisia) Martín. Pedro Antonio Archuleta and María Pilar
Benavides were the parents of three known children, each baptized in Santa
Cruz:
a. María Alexandra
Archuleta, bt. April 25, 1837. Padrinos:
José Domingo Mascareñas and Guadalupe Vigil.
b. María Aniceta Archuleta, b. April 18, 1839, San Miguel (del Río
Chiquita), bt. April 21, 1839. Padrinos:
Juan de Jesús Martínez and María de los Reyes Martínez, residents of Cuchilla.
c. José Matéo Archuleta, b.

CASADOS
The barrio de San Francisco in Santa Fe was
the long-time residence of the escultor
José Anastacio Casados. He received the sacrament of baptism in the church of
San Francisco on August 18, 1787, being a son of José Gabriel Casados and
Matilde Lucero. The Casados family lived next to a family of carpenters, Juan
Manuel Ortega and his son José Celedón Ortega. These woodworkers may have been
influential in the development of the skills of José Anastacio Casados as
creator of devotional art. By 1823, Casados was recognized as an escultor by profession, indicating he
made his living by producing devotional works. He was married around 1817 with
Josefa Sena (bt. August 5, 1797, Santa Fe), a daughter of don José Vicente Sena
and doña Ana María Rivera y Peña.
José
Anastacio Casados and his family were enumerated as residents of Santa Fe in
1841, and his widow and children were enumerated in the U.S. Federal census of
1850, indicating he was apparently deceased by 1850. He and Josefa Sena were
the parents of eleven
known children born and baptized at Santa Fe between 1817 and 1840:
1. José Fernando Casados, bt.
June 1, 1817, Santa Fe. Padrinos:
Santiago Casados and Manuela Casados.

GONZÁLEZ LOBÓN
Captain Diego González Lobón (ONMF: 39) appeared as a
witness in a case presented by Captain Pedro
Martínez Moya
in January 1663. González Lobón identified himself as a vecino de Santa Fe and gave his age as
25, indicating he was born circa 1638.

HURTADO-SALAS y
Andrés Hurtado (ONMF: 49) held a grievance against
Governor don Bernado López de
Mendizabal
for having been recalled as an official of the Moqui province and compelled
under penalty of death to appear before the governor in Santa Fe within ten
days of the summons, being forced to travel in the extreme cold of winter
during January 1661 with his wife (Bernardina de
Salas y Trujillo)
and five children, ages nine and younger. In this year he held the position of
a regidor (town councilman) of the
Villa Santa Fe, and his house where he resided with his wife and children was
sixteen leagues from Santa Fe in the area of the Pueblo of Zia. The governor
contended that as an encomendero Hurtado was required to maintain a house in
the Villa de Santa Fe. In addition, Huratdo in the Pueblo of Santa Ana and this was
prohibited by law.
Hurtado received the governor’s
order on January 29, 1661 while in the Moqui Province, a distance of 100
leagues from the Villa de Santa Fe. He left the Moqui area in the company of
the friar who was the visitador of
the province to travel to his home. From his home he then traveled to the
Pueblo of Zia with his wife and five children, the oldest being nine years of
age. Despite the extreme winter weather, which he referred to as “tan rigoroso y de tantas niebas“ (“very
harsh and with much snow”). They traveled sixteen leagues (approximately 39
miles) on “el camino” and along the way his youngest daughter, just over four
months of age, suffered frostbite of one of her feet, and the trip caused his
wife ill health.
Andrés Hurtado further mentioned that he had come to New
Mexico twelve years earlier, “en dose años qe estoy en esta reyno”
(circa 1649), and that he always remained “querido
y estimado de todos los becinos y religiosos desta reyno como es publica vos y
fama” (“loved and esteemed by all the vecinos
and religious of this kingdom, as is well-known publically”). He stated he did
not have a house in
Andrés Hurtado signed his declaration,
which was dated October 17, 1661, Santa Fe.
. His wife has been identified by Fray
Angélico Chávez as Bernardina de Salas y Trujillo (aka Bernardina de Salas y
Orozco). Chávez indicated that Andrés Hurtado was referred to as a
son-in-law of Diego Trujillo (see ONMF: 10). The original source (AGN Tierras,
t. 3268, f. 94) refers to Captain Diego de Trujillo as an encomendero and then mentions “su
hijo Capn Franco de Trujo y sus yernos Capn Xptoval Vaca y Capn Andres Hurtado.” This record clearly
indicates that the wives of of Cristóbal Baca and Andrés Hurtado (Ana Moreno de Lara and Bernardina de Sala y Trujillo, respectively) were
daughters of Captain Diego de Trujillo, and thus they were sisters of Francisco de Trujillo.
Fray Angélico Chávez
refered to Bernardina de Salas y Trujillo as a daughter of Francisco de Trujillo, but did not provide a
specific source citation for this statement. It appears that there may have
been some confusion that resulted in the inconsistency with his previous
statement about Andrés Hurtado being his son-in-law. Chávez also mentioned that
Bernardina
de Salas was a
“grand-daughter of María de Vera,” but once again did not give
a specific source citation for the statement.
Based on the declaration of
Andrés
Hurtado that
he arrived in New Mexico in 1649 and was married and had a family of five
children in 1661, the eldest of which was nine years of age (b.ca. 1652), we
can estimate the year of marriage with Bernardina de Sala y Trujillo as circa
1649-1651. As such Bernardina
de Salas y Trujillo was a contemporary of Francisco de Trujillo, rather than his daughter.
This further supports the statement that Andrés Hurtado was a son-in-law of Diego de
Trujillo.

LUCERO de GODOY
In 1662 four personal
letters of Maese de Campo Pedro Lucero de Godoy (ONMF: 59) were
confiscated by officials of the Office of the Inquisition as part of the case
involving former Governor don Bernardo López de Mendizábal. One letter was intended
for his brother, Bachiller Diego Lucero de Godoy. Another was addressed to
a second brother, Francisco de
Godoy, and
a third was addressed to an unnamed nephew. In the letters, Pedro Lucero de
Godoy
described the situation leading to the arrest of his brother-in-law, Francisco Gómez Robledo, and his son-in-law, Diego Romero, and asked that family members in Mexico City
contact influential friends among the officials of the Tribunal of the
Inquisition on behalf of his in-laws. The names of several relatives mentioned
in these letters lead to research that has uncovered new genealogical
information concerning the Lucero de Godoy family of Mexico City, including the baptismal
record of Pedro Lucero de Godoy and the marriage record of his parents. In all,
records have been located on as many as 27 members of the Lucero de Godoy extended family in Mexico
City from the 1580s to the 1670s.
The new
genealogical findings for the Lucero de Godoy
family appear in the Fall 2003 issue of El
Farolito (Vol. 6, No. 3, forthcoming in January 2004), the quarterly
journal of the Olibama López Tushar Hispanic Legacy Research Center, and are
presented in a 10 page article titled “Esta
Gran Familia: The Genealogy of the Lucero de Godoy Family of Mexico City”
by José Antonio Esquibel. This article also contains a translation and
transcription of one of the letters of Pedro Lucero de Godoy as well as two
genealogy charts. Copies of the Winter 2003 issue of El Farolito can be acquired by sending a request and $7.00 (check

A brief
excerpt of the article by José Antonio Esquibel is provided here:
In
the opinion of Pedro Lucero de Godoy, young Franciscan friars recently arrived
in New Mexico were the main source of the social tumult resulting in the arrest
of four New Mexicans by orders of the Inquisition Tribunal of Mexico City. In
his letters, Lucero de Godoy described his perspective of the unfortunate
circumstances of his brother-in-law, Francisco Gómez Robledo, his son-in-law,
Diego Pérez Romero, and of Cristóbal de Anaya Almazán and Nicolás de Aguilar.
Each was accused by the friars and their supporters of speaking against the
Catholic faith. In the letters to his two brothers and nephew, Lucero de Godoy
described the prisoners as four of the best soldiers of the realm of New Mexico
who always followed the governor’s orders.6 Each were also friends
of Governor don Bernardo López de Mendizábal whose enmity with the Franciscans
in New Mexico fueled a political conflict resulting in charges of heresy
against him and his subsequent arrest by the Inquisition.7 Lucero de
Godoy asked for support from his family members in Mexico City to intercede
through influential members of the Tribunal of the Inquisition on behalf of his
in-laws.
In
the letter addressed to Bachiller
Diego Lucero de Godoy, Pedro Lucero de Godoy explained to his brother the
arrangements he made to ensure funds from the estates of the prisoners were
available to cover their expenses while imprisoned by the Inquisition. These
men were being held in cells at the Convento
de Santo Domingo, “seeing neither sun nor moon, and not communicating with
any living soul,” being completely under the power of the friars, in particular
Fray Juan Ramírez.8 According to Lucero de Godoy, Ramírez was
supported by royal provisions from the viceroy of New Spain, hinting at
political connections within the viceregal court, and relied on false
testimonies from witnesses in New Mexico to ensnare the four soldiers. Lucero de
Godoy referred to himself, the four prisoners, and “other vecinos” as “favoring the part of the king, Our Lord,” while “all
the religious with the people for their devotion” consisted of the opposing
party.9 He again referred to himself as a royalist (“la parte de nuestro Rei”) in the letter
to his brother Francisco de Godoy.10 In both letters, as well as the
one to his nephew, Lucero de Godoy asked that contacts be made with influential
men associated with the Tribunal of the Inquisition and the “consultores del Secretario,”
specifically mentioning Licenciado
Miguel de Balmaseda, don Antonio de Vergara (a “great friend” of Pedro’s
parents and a friend of Diego Lucero de Godoy), don Juan Manuel (a friend of
Pedro’s nephew), and their relative “el
Lector Brabo”. 11
The letters of Pedro Lucero de Godoy also provide
valuable clues that assist in extending the genealogy of the Lucero de Godoy
family of
