Opis

Volume XI is a continuation of the journey of the Maldonado family to the Kingdom of New Mexico. It documents the Maldonado descendants of Pedro Gonzales de Carvajal and his wife Isabel Delgadillo. They are connected to New Mexico through the marriage of their second great-grandson, Juan de Vitoria Carvajal, to Isabel Holguin, daughter of Juan Lopez Holguin and Catalina de Villanueva, founders of the Kingdom of New Mexico. From the marriages of Juan and Isabel's children, Magdalena, Juana, Agustin, Ana Maria, Geronimo, and Felis, don Pedro and dona Isabel became the ancestors of leading New Mexicans in later generations. Brothers Agustin and Geronimo de Carvajal married sisters Maria and Margarita Marquez, daughters of Diego Marquez and Bernardina Vasquez, a pioneering New Mexico couple. This volume contains not only their direct line of descent but also cousins, uncles, aunts, and in-laws. The Maldonado database has more than 5,800 names, with many of them represented here. The time period is generally from 1598 through the nineteenth century for most names, though the direct line continues to the present. Juan de VitoriaCarvajal is the ancestor of many people living in New Mexico today. In this volume his other descendants can trace their connections to cousins from this extended Maldonado family. Pedro Gonzales de Carvajal and Isabel Delgadillo are my thirteenth great-grandparents."
