Hey everyone.

I am currently working on a line which takes me to Felipe Quezada and Maria de la Torre Valdez by way of their Gertrudis Quezada (who married Antonio Enriquez) and their grandson Florencio Enriquez (who married Maria de Jesus Bañuelos).

Felipe and Maria lived and died in Colotlán, Jalisco in the 1730s.

On one hand, I can't manage to find anything about Felipe's parents and am of course wondering if anyone has managed to break that wall yet.

On the other I have found trees which list Maria de la Torre's parents as Juan de la Torre (son of Juan del Campo de la Torre and Angela Velasco de Mojica/Mujica), but no documents to confirm such a connection. Would anybody be able to point me in the right direction?

Hey dear Katy,
I’m sorry about the super late reply and thank you so much for sharing all this material and all the work.
Rosalinda and I are still busy looking through each and every one of the dispensas that could help us figure out what is up with Juan and Maria (and) Clara (and Juan). We promise to soon share our conclusions (or atraer more solid suspicions).

Hey cousins! Rosalinda, Erlinda, Katy, Sandra, Joseph...

I decided to open another thread even though it's related to this one because it's more about the larger de la Torre family (the Juan de la Torre and Angela de Velasco trunks, to be more precise) rather the more specific Quezada-de la Torre one. Letting you know here just in case you only see this thread.

Hey cousins Rosalinda, Erlinda, Katy, Sandra, Joseph and all the Quesada/Quezada descendants around here.

Wondering if any of you watched the talk that Nefi Arenas gave about Doña Marina/Malintzin on Facebook in which he makes a link between the Quesadas/Quezadas in Nueva Galicia and beyond.

https://fb.watch/v/UH9eLO3O/

Now a request:

I have the image of the document which records the death/burial of Gertrudis Quezada (daughter of Felipe Quezada and María de la Torre, and wife of Antonio Enríquez de Ulloa). Problem is I can't find the link to it anywhere: not on Family Search, not on Ancestry, not on WikiTree... I cannot for the life of my remember where I got it from. Can anybody help?

Thanks in advance!

UPDATE: found it on Ancestry https://www.ancestry.mx/imageviewer/collections/60017/images/004722128_…
I will keep keep looking for it on FamilySearch, but if anybody has it, I'll be very thankful.

UPDATE 2: a couple of new friends with infinitely more experience and skills was kind enough to share the link with me so I'm posting it as well (hey Julio and Rosalinda):

"México, Jalisco, registros parroquiales, 1590-1979," database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:9392-FQSM-K4?cc=1874591&wc=3JH3… : 28 June 2014), Colotlán > San Luis Obispo > Entierros 1801-1832 > image 37 of 643; parroquias Católicas (Catholic Church parishes), Jalisco.

Thank you. I was very excited to find this post today. I believe Juan de la Torre and Maria Clara Chavez y Banuelos may be my 7th great grandparents. I have been researching them as possible parents of Agustin de la Torre (married to Catharina Gonzales). This gives me more to look at.
Sandra

Hey Sandra.
There is a Tlaltenango document from 1723 which confirms that Agustín de la Torre was the son of Capitan Juan de la Torre and Doña Clara de Chavez. It also mentions Catarina Gonzalez and her parents Juan González and Maria Carrillo. Have you seen it? I don't have the link to FamilySearch readily available, but I do have the jpg that Joseph de Leon (author of the post previous to yours) shared on Ancestry.

here's the link to agustin's marriage info.
"México, Zacatecas, registros parroquiales, 1605-1980," database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-15237-5908-37?cc=1804458 : 21 May 2014), Tlaltenango de Sánchez Román > Tlaltenango de Sánchez Román > Información matrimonial 1723-1734 > image 6 of 655; paróquias Católicas, Zacatecas (Catholic Church parishes, Zacatecas). on another note: i did get a y-37 for Miguel Quezada and his haplogroup seems to be a match to the los altos quezadas who tested on ftdna.

here's a potential birth record for Felipe, but i can't say with even 99% certainty that it is indeed his(i only consider this record a posible one is because there's a possbility felipe was born in los altos region since of las bocas):
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NRRH-KH3

Thank you, Katy, for both links. (And it's so great you got the Quesada paternal haplogroup.)

I transcribe the record of Felipe's possible baptismal record (image #512 of 523):

"En la Labor de Santa Lugarda(?) en cuatro dias del mes de marzo de mil seiscientos y sesenta y un años, Baptisé, Chatequisé y puse oleos y Chrisma a Felipe, español, hijo legítimo de Christoval de Quesada y de Ysabel de Alvarado, asistentes en la Labor de Miguel Sánchez. Fueron sus padrinos Diego Coronel y Catalina del Ang(el?) y para que conste lo firmé --"

I just wanted to pop in here and say that I descend from Felipe and Maria, along with Maria Gertrudis, their daughter, and Felipe and Maria's son Manuel.

I've searched for Felipe's parents for many years, with no success. It's very likely that he came from somewhere else (maybe another part of Zacatecas or Aguascalientes, where there are other Quezadas), but without a marriage record for Felipe and Maria, we may be out of luck. There is always a chance that there is a record out there with more information, perhaps unindexed.

Katy and Erlinda are my cousins; my DNA is on Ancestry and FTDNA, but I use initials-- JJ for FTDNA and R Ruiz for Ancestry. If you'd like, we can exchange info to see how close our cousinship is. I always like to add a new cousin to the tree!

Rosalinda

Hey Rosalinda! Yes, let's definitely exchange info. I also tested with Ancestry and FTDNA (mtDNA), but I also uploaded my data to GEDmatch, MyHeritage, LivingDNA... On Ancestry my username is the same as my handle here.

I just looked for you on my matches list, but I don't think I see you. Perhaps I match somebody else in your family? MQ and I, for example, share 60cM on FTDNA (it's probably like half of that because they are including under 5cM fragments in the total number which are probably IBC instead of IBD)...

I also descend from Gertrudis but via her son Florencio Enriquez who married Maria de Jesús Bañuelos de la Torre (daughter of Jacinto Dionisio Bañuelos Muñoz and Bartola Cipriana de la Torre y Haro).

Too bad about the lack of paper trail on Felipe's side. So many kids and still not one mention of the paternal grandparents. Lazy scribes they got...Hopefully there's a dispensa out there somewhere yet to be found.

Fantastic, thank you so much! Looking forward to help you break a wall sometime, somewhere.

(I wasn't aware of the existence of Orta, but I'm adding all the information on this dispensa to my tree so I can better understand how the braid is further braided and figure out where else the paper trail connects him to Maria de la Torre, wife of Felipe Quezada.)

(Btw, Katy, I was looking around your entries on wikitree, and the name Miguel Quezada keeps popping up. I match someone with his name on GEDmatch, as well as a "MQ" and a "JQ" on Ancestry whose kits are managed by someone with your last name, so I guess he is/they are your family.)

I just read the entire dispensa of Orta and Barragán. Mexican telenovelas got nothing on this bunch. Orta had to testify not only on his familial links to his bride but to his two previous wives and how the women were also related to each other!

Now I am also wondering also about two of the witnesses on the dispensa: Casimiro Olague de Etulain and Roque Jacinto de la Torre.

I've seen Casimiro listed in some trees as the husband of Rosa de la Torre y de la Torre, one of the sisters of Roque Jacinto de la Torre Valdez (the second witness in the dispensa).

Roque Jacinto and Rosa I have in my notes as children of Roque de la Torre y Valdez Haro and Juana de la Torre. (Roque Sr. I understand was the co-founder of Juanchorrey, and son of Alferez Diego de la Torre y Valdez Gamboa and Ana Francisca de Haro. On the other hand, Juana de la Torre I got down as daughter of Manuel de la Torre y Renteria and Josefa Gonzalez de Haro).

So, has anybody found anything about Casimiro (and Rosa)? In the jerezzacatecas blog, Rosa is listed as the mother of Isabel de la Torre who married Juan (de Dios Avila?) Carlos --which btw, is another bit of a confusing mess-- but there's no mention of Casimiro and I also haven't been able to locate any documents either way. Hope somebody around here can clarify.

Now on to looking for the other dispensas that Erlinda quoted from. Sunday entertainment!

I have George Olague Etulain and Juana Cid Caldera as parents of Miguel but did not put the link in the record..
I also have Miguel Olague and Francisca Doria (Garay) as parents of George but again no verification as to how I got that information

JQ is my maternal grandpa(he shows up as Jose Manuel Quesada on gedmatch), and mq is said grandpa's uncle miguel(under the name miguel Quezada on gedmatch).I share an ancestry account with my dad Gene.
i descend from 3 of felipe and maria's children(thru my maternal grandpa): Manuel, gertrudis, and diego. I should also add that juan de la torre and maria clara chavez y banuelos are second cousins

Wow, that's a whole lot of Quezada/Quesada, Katy. As far as I know, Gertrudis is the only kid of Felipe and Maria that I descend from, so it's helpful to locate the specific chromosomal fragments I share with your grandpa and granduncle because those might be what we inherited specifically from either Gertrudis or Felipe: I have a 7cM triangulated match with both Miguel and Jose Manuel on chromosome 9 and then 11cM+ with your grandpa also on chromosome 12 and with Miguel on chromosome 6. But I'll take a closer look at their trees to see where else we intersect (surely in at least a few other lines, given the endogamy in the region).

You are so lucky that you were able to test so high up on your tree. The highest I can get now on my maternal side is an aunt because neither my grandparents nor my mom are around anymore. It was my mom's recent passing, btw, which flung me into genealogical research.

Anyway, I hope the names of the parents of Felipe Quezada pop up somewhere soon. Perhaps with the help of the Quezada paternal haplogpup? I got a similar situation with my second last name (my maternal grandpa's last name). It is Sánchez and it also comes from the Zacatecas side. I hit the same kind of wall with the parents of Blas Sánchez (husband of Desideria Carlos, daughter of Antonio Justo Carlos de Godoy and Rita Laureana Llanos y Valdez). He might've been a Sánchez Castellanos, but as Erlinda said: with no marriage record or any birth record of their kids listing paternal grandparents, there might not be a way to tell. And I got no male Sánchez in my midst to test...

Let's see if I got this straight by just looking at my tree:

Maria Clara Chavez y Bañuelos is the daughter of Isabel de Soto y Almeida and Juan José Chavez de Bañuelos. Juan José is son of Pedro Chavez y Bañuelos and Quiteria Gamboa (/Guzman?).

Juan de la Torre is the son of Angela Velasco Renteria y Mojica (daughter of Sancho and Agueda del Rio y Loza) and Juan del Campo y de la Torre, who is the son of Juan del Campo and Juana Gamboa, the sister of Clara's grandmother Quiteria, right?

First question, Erlinda:
Where did the name Leonor Chávez come from? I don’t see it anywhere on that dispensa (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:9392-X45Y-F?cc=1874591&wc=3J48-…). The trunk only has “Jph de Chabes” at the top. I just reread the whole thing. Did I miss it? Or is there a marriage record between this Joseph de Chavez and a Leonor de Chavez? Where did Jose Carlo de León get that information?

.
Jose, can you share the link to the record you shared?

we have a question for you.. where did this record come from?

Ok, I see now where the name Leonor comes from.

In the dispensa of Miguel de Mayorga and Maria de Chávez Carlos, this is the trunk that is presented
Pedro de Chávez y Bañuelos and Quiteria Gamboa
Luisa de Chávez ….. …1….. Leonor de Chávez (sisters)
Nicolas de Mayorga ……2……..Joseph de Chávez
Miguel de Mayorga …….3………Maria de Chávez Carlos

Miguel de Mayorga and Maria de Chávez Carlos are the parents of Francisca Mayorga, mother of Prudencio de León.
Prudencio married Maria Joseph’s de Santiago, the daughter of Luisa del Muro, granddaughter of Andrea de la Torre, great-granddaughter of our Clara. So yep, our Clara is daughter of Leonor, not Isabel de Soto y Almeida. Maria and Clara are two different people who seem to be related between them. Perhaps cousins? Is it possible that Captain Juan de la Torre Valdes married the two cousins? New theory.

the dispensation claiming leonor chavez and jose chavez got married and had kids probably had an error in it since it conflicts with older dispensa with miguel mayorga. it seems that leonor and juan jose are siblings and leonor had a natural son named jose. not sure who the bio father was but leonor must have died when her son was young and he was raised by his uncle.
I had a discussion with manuel dominguez on wikitree about this and we came to the conclusion that what i stated above is the most likely reason why the dispensas conflict with each other

Hey Katy and Erlinda,

Do you know which dispensa specifically claims that Leonor and Joseph Chávez married each other?

The way that I came to the conclusion that our Clara is daughter of Leonor de Chavez and Joseph de Chavez Sr. was by combining ONLY the Miguel de Mayorga/Maria Chavez Carlos dispensa with the Prudencio de Leon/Maria Josefa de Santiago one. I traced the relationships on paper to try to understand using exclusively the info posted on those two. I don’t think they contradicted each other at all, but rather complemented each other, but will check again to be sure. The only thing they contradicted was the info of Isabel Soto as Clara’s mom. But perhaps there is another dispensa that clearly contradicts the info on Mayorga/Chavez Carlos and the de Leon/de Santiago ones (other than the bunch that have "Maria" de Chavez instead of Clara as daughter of Isabel?

Rosalinda and I have been looking through all the dispensas of the descendants of this bunch, making notes and trying to make sense out of all of this. We are clearly still missing some, so perhaps we can collectively make a list of all of the ones we find and share it here with links so we can all reference the same material?

like i said earlier, the 1770's dispensation most likely mistakenly assumed clara and jose were siblings but were actually first cousins. i can came to that conclusion based on both those records and other dispsantions listing maria clara's dad and juan jose chavez y banuelos and linking her as a sister of josefa chavez.
First i'll share the link to the dispensation that refers to clara as maria clara chavez https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-897B-B45W?i=91&cc=1937…

here's some other marriage dispensations

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:9392-X4SJ-4D?i=183&cc=18745…

Thank you so much for these links, Katy. Also, a shout out to Erlinda who has been directing us to many others.

Rosalinda and I are looking through these and all the rest of the related dispensas, many for the second or third time over, and we are working together on a document that contains all the links, trunks and other relevant information of each one of them. We currently have an alternate theory which we will explain if we believe all these documents confirm it, but either way, we will soon post all the info on this thread.

So I am back to looking through the dispensas of the descendants of the de la Torre sisters. It's clear that Maria, Antonia, Francisca, Andrea and Magdalena are siblings because they are documented together on multiple trunks of all the dispensas that Erlinda shared. My question is about the Orta/Barragan dispensa that Katy posted: is there another document that would either link Maria or Antonia or Francisca or Andrea or Magdalena with Augustina de la Torre, the mother of Felipe Santiago Orta? Because from what I can gather, this dispensa is the only one that links Juan de la Torre (husband of Clara Chavez) to Juan del Campo de la Torre and Angela Velasco Moxica. Thing is, the Maria de la Torre mentioned in that Orta/Barragan dispensa is not the daughter of Juan de la Torre and Clara Chavez and wife of Felipe Quezada, but is the daughter of Sebastian de la Torre and the wife of Pablo Barragán...
Please somebody tell me I am simply missing a piece of the puzzle and not that Augustina is not a sister to all of the rest...

I think clara's full name was Maria Clara de chavez y banuelos. there are several dispensations indicating that her parents are juan jose chavez y banuelos and isabel soto almeida. some dispensations call her maria, others call her clara. but i recall coming accross one record that called her maria clara chavez(can't remember which one, i haven't inputted all records related to her yet on wikitree. also the maria de la torre mentioned in orta/barragan dispensation is a cousin of our ancestor maria de la torre

Hey Erlinda, hey Katy. Thank you both for replying.

Erlinda: sorry, I meant Santiago de Orta. Not Sebastian. The one in the last dispensa you posted in your more recent message.
Felipe Santiago de Orta, son of Augustina de la Torre and Andres de Orta y Cuellar who first married his cousin Andrea Miranda (there’s also a dispensa), then Juana Carlos and then Antonia Barragán.

Btw, before I forget: the marriage date of our Juan de la Torre Valdés and Clara de Chávez is 10 feb 1684 (found on Arturo Ramos’ Tlaltenango book thanks to Rosalinda and Nefi A.).

I guess I am trying to confirm without any doubt that Augustina, Mathiana and Diego are indeed siblings of Maria, Andrea, Antonia, Francisca, Magdalena and Agustin. I mean, it makes sense that they are, but Rosalinda and I have not been able to triangúlate dispensas between the two groups of siblings yet.

What is a good sign, I guess, is that both Augustina and Maria both are registered in some documents as de la Torre Valdés like Juan in his marriage record with Clara. And that’s also the name of the Juan married to Juana Gamboa, who is listed as the paternal grandfather of Augustina in the Orta-Barragán dispensa. Our Juan is also called Capitan as is the Juan son of Angela Velasco Moxica.

Edit: ah! As I was posting this message, Erlinda added more dispensas to the mix. Will comment on my next reply.

Did Maria de la torre have a ranch in colotlan with the same name rancho maria de la torre?

I have some madera an ancestors that were there at that ranch during early 1700's

I don't know, but now that I have it in my radar, I'll let you know if I find anything.

p.s. I should've proofread my post before hitting save/enter. I mean to obviously say that they lived in Colotlan and they both died there in the 1730s. Maria was born around 1691 and died in 1731. Felipe passed away in 1737.

What I find interesting that it seems like they started out in Colotlan (where they had their kid Diego) then went to Huejucar and then moved to Tlaltenango and then settled back in Colotlan. Gertrudis Quezada, their daughter who is my ancestor, was born in Las Bocas around 1709 (she got married to Antonio Enriquez in Colotlan, though). Felipe and Maria had two kids born in Tlaltenango in the 1710s (Domingo and Manuel) and then the rest in Colotlan.
