Roots in Michoacan, Morelia, 1500s

Hi

Found this amazing family tree in the Morelia records:

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-18784-15792-41?cc=1883388&wc=11978369

From:

Mexico, Michoacán, Cathol...Church Records, 1649-1909
Morelia
Arquidiócesis de Morelia
Información matrimonial y actas diversas 1555-1599

I have no idea yet why its included, but its a family of spaniards, mestizos and caciques...with a couple of ordens de santiago and an orden de calatrava.

If you know you have roots in Michoacan, Morelia, this tree may be of interest.
