Garcia de Monroy y Pizarro
Hello Cousins, I realize this is an old post but I wanted to find out if anyone has additional information about a specific family in Tequila mentioned here on page 5 of this post: http://www.nuestrosranchos.com/en/node/20132?page=4
“Catalina de Monroy Pizarro fue hija de García de Monroy Pizarro y de Luisa de León Castro y Ulloa, vecinos de Tequila, sus fundadores y dueños de las principales haciendas de agave azul en el siglo XVII
García de Monroy Pizarro fue hijo de Francisco de Monroy Pizarro y de Aldonza de Castro (Almesto y Suárez de Figueroa).”
I am trying to determine where the multiple Garcia de Monroy y Pizarro fit in, specifically my 9th GGF, Garcia de Monroy y Pizarro married to Mariana Melendez de León.
The first, (1)Garcia de Monroy Pizarro (abt 1600- bef Oct 1654)) married to Luisa de León Castro y Ulloa is mentioned in this post but records only go back to 1649. The records of their children’s baptisms I do have and believe Luisa de León Castro y Ulloa was the first spouse.
The second, (2)Garcia de Monroy Pizarro (abt 1600- bef Oct 1654) married Maria de la Cueva Mendoza. I believe this is the same person as previously mentioned with a second spouse. I found records that mention him being deceased “ya difunto” by Oct. 1654 in his daughter’s wedding, Maria de la Cueva Monroy (abt 1637-bef 1663) with Joseph Lopez de Salazar (m.05/22/1655 in Tequila, Jal).
The third, (1.a)(Alférez or Ensign) García de Monroy y Pizarro (abt.1630- aft. 1660) married to Catalina Gomez de Bribiesca. He is mentioned in several records as godparent along with his wife after 1654, long after the other Garcia de Monroy Pizarro was deceased. Some records include his title, “Alférez” so he is the correct person. There is also a record that states "su hermano de la madre de el niño" where he is padrino for child of Catalina de Monroy y Pizarro.
The fourth, (3.)García de Monroy y Pizarro (abt 1650-bef. 1713) married to Mariana Melendez de León (m. 03/19/1669 Guadalajara). This is my 9th GGF and I am trying to see who the parents were. His children were also born in Tequila, Jal but a bit later during the early 1680s.
Last, there is (4.)Francisco de Monroy y Pizarro (abt 1630-) married to Francisca Gomez Bribiesca de Meza. I am not sure where he fits into all this as I am not done with the records of this film.
