ORIGINS OF PEDRO ALONSO DE LOS HINOJOS
According to the Limpieza de Sangre required when their son, Nicolas Alonso, took his religious orders, 4 May 1662, Pedro Alonso was son of Diego Alonso de los Hinojos and Leonor Sanchez de Ulloa, of San Luis Potosi, and Ana Dominguez was daughter of Miguel Diaz and Maria Medel, originally from Leon, Gto (and owners of Paraje de Las Bocas, in Sierra de Pinos).
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:9392-DVT7-V?i=554&wc=3JWL-YWG&c…
According to Rafael Morales Bocardo, in his “Diccionario...,” Diego Alonso de los Hinojos was a “dueño de recua”: he owned a mule train. He and Leonor Sanchez were also parents of:
- Diego Alonso de los Hinojos “El Mozo”
- Juan Alonso de los Hinojos, m. Beatriz Lopez del Castillo
- Leonor Sanchez
- Ysabel Sanchez
- Catalina Martin
On 6 May 1616, in SLP, Diego Alonso de los Hinojos agreed to act as guarantor for his son-in-law, Juan Muñiz, for a debt that he owed to Francisca de la Paz, viuda. Juan Muñiz and Ysabel Sanchez baptized Juan, 13 Jul 1616, Sagrario SLP.
When daughter Catalina Martin submitted her Testamento, on 4 Aug 1658, she declared that she was born in Zamora, Michoacan. Catalina Martin married twice: m1. Diego Lopez de Mesa, m2. Fernando Coçetillo.
Juan Alonso de los Hinojos and Beatriz Lopez baptized their first 2 children in Zamora: Madalena, 30 Apr 1610, and Juana, 7 Aug 1613 (agua) & 30 Dec 1613 (pusieron los oleos). The madrina on Dec 30 was Juana Lopez, the child's grandmother, so we know Beatriz Lopez was from Zamora, where she and Juan Alonso likely married.
That said, I have a feeling that this family group originated in Zamora, that Diego Alonso de la Hinojos and Leonor Sanchez probably had their children there, before establishing themselves in San Luis Potosi. So if any of you are researching this line, I'd recommend starting there. That's all I have.
Saludos!

Diego Alonso de los Hinojos “El Mozo”
Hola de nuevo,
In the footnotes, Rafael Morales Bocardo mentions that Diego Alonso de los Hinojos “El Mozo” was married to Maria del Hierro. I had missed that.
Diego Alonso “El Mozo” died and was buried 2 Feb 1657, and Maria del Hierro, on 25 Jun 1658, both in San Felipe, Gto, where they were residents. They were parents of Alonso de los Hinojos Hierro, b. 2 Dec 1613, in Zamora, Mich, and Diego Bernal de los Hinojos Hierro cc Catalina Martin.
On his death registry, Diego Alonso "El Mozo" is said to be a native of Valladolid (Morelia, Mich).
Saludos!

Juan Martin de los Hinojos
Hola prim@s,
Juan Martin de los Hinojos aka Juan Alonso de los Hinojos married Josefa Gutierrez, 14 May 1684, in Aguascalientes. He was son of Alonso Martin Mateos Saldaña and Maria Lopez del Castillo (m. 5 Mar 1628, San Luis Potosi), and she, viuda of Pedro Macias.
This one’s interesting: where does the “Alonso de los Hinojos” come from????
I have an idea: I think it’s likely that his father, Alonso Martin Mateos Saldaña, was a son of Diego Martin Mateos cc Maria de Saldaña, of SLP. Though it’s possible that the surname came from one of them, I think it’s more likely that the source is his mother, Maria Lopez del Castillo. I’d wager that she is a daughter of Juan Alonso de los Hinojos cc Beatriz Lopez del Castillo, and that she took her mother’s surname. Juan would’ve been named for his maternal grandfather. The timelines and locations fit. By the way, according to her burial record, Maria Lopez del Castillo did leave a testamento, but it doesn't appear to be available online.
That is my guess, as far as the source of Juan Martin’s “Alonso de los Hinojos.” But then, on his 19 May 1707 testamento, he’s given the name, “Juan de Armas Alonso de los Hinojos.” I haven’t researched this person, so I don’t know if “Armas” was a reoccurring surname, or a typo. Anyone?
I think it’s fascinating how the Alonso de los Hinojos y Sanchez de Ulloa spoked-off into 3 branches, with 3 sons, living in 3 different reales: Juan Alonso in SLP, Diego Alonso “El Mozo” in San Felipe Gto, and Pedro Alonso in Aguascalientes via Sierra de Pinos. Diego Alonso “El Viejo” owned a recua, which is what would have led him to moving to SLP: the need for pack trains, for hauling silver to Veracruz. Juan Alonso also owned a recua, likely inherited from his father, since he remained in SLP. I wonder if the other sons were in the same trade? Truckers of the 17th century!
Btw, I’ll start a thread on the Martin Mateos Saldaña, I have a lot of material on them, I just need to synthesize it.
Saludos!

More on Diego Alonso de los Hinojos cc Leonor Sanchez FG
Home prim@s,
Here's some info I've picked up on 2 of the daughters of Diego Alonso cc Leonor Sanchez, with the possible addition of another offspring:
LEONOR SANCHEZ
Leonor Sanchez was born in Zamora, Mich. She married Francisco Batalla, 12 Sep 1625, in San Luis Potosi. He was from Villa de Arruda, in Portugal, son of Francisco Batalla and Gracia Anarte. On their marriage record, the bride uses the name, Leonor de los Hinojos.
They had one child, Francisca Batalla, who married (1) Mateo Jimenez, and (2), Alonso Perez de Bocanegra, on 8 May 1662, in San Luis Potosi.
On 10 Apr 1653, already widowed, and sick and near dying, Leonor Sanchez gave power of attorney to Alonso Perez de Bocanegra, allowing him to dictate her testament.
On 09 Jul 1653, Leonor Sanchez registered her testament, naming Alonso Perez de Bocanegra as her executor, and her daughter, Francisca de Batalla, as her heir.

YSABEL SANCHEZ DE ULLOA
m1. Juan Múñoz (or Múñiz)
m2. Bartolomé de Medina
Ysabel Sanchez de Ulloa married twice: her first husband was Juan Muñoz, also Muñiz, a merchant. They had one son, Juan Muñoz (& Muñiz) “El Mozo,” b. 13 Jul 1616, Sagrario, San Luis Potosi.
On 25 Jul 1615, Lorenso Sanchez de Ulloa, dueño de requa, y su cuñado, Juan Muñoz, promised to pay Francisco de Fuente, resident of Mexico City, and Simon Luis, his local intermediary, 528 pesos of common gold for 16 mules, male and female, of assorted colors. Witnesses present were Diego Alonso de los Hinojos and Pedro Alonso de los Hinojos.
I believe this is the same Juan Muñoz who was married to Ysabel Sanchez de Ulloa, therefore, Lorenso Sanchez de Ulloa would be her brother. He uses their mother’s surname, and might have a different father. Apparently, Lorenso Sanchez and Juan Muñoz had problems paying their loan, and were thrown into jail.
On 15 Feb 1651, Sagrario SLP, baptized was Maria, daughter of Lorenso Sanchez arriero and Francisca de Contreras; padrinos were Juan Muñoz and his mother, Ysabel Sanchez.
On 06 Mar 1653, Ysabel Sanchez gave power to write her testamento to her 2nd husband, Bartolome Medina, and to her son, Juan Muñiz.
Saludos!

LOS DEMAS HIJOS DE DIEGO ALONSO DE LOS HINOJOS Y LEONOR SANCHEZ
Hola prim@s,
I finally got around to compiling my notes on 3 confirmed sons of Diego Alonso and Ysabel Sanchez:
DIEGO ALONSO DE LOS HINOJOS "EL "MOZO" AND MARIA DEL HIERRO
Diego Alonso de los Hinojos “El Mozo” and Maria del Hierro were likely married in Zamora, where they baptized Alonso in Dec 1613. By 1615, they were already living in San Luis Potosi.
On 30 Jun 1622, Diego Alonso promised to pay Capitan Jorge Beneciano 625 pesos?
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33S7-958X-7TRT?i=395&wc=MXB…
On 18 May 1623, Jorge Beneciano took Diego Alonso to court, demand payment on a debt owed. Looks like their belongings were or will be put up for public auction; Maria del Hierro, mention of her dowry of 1,500 pesos given at time she married.
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33SQ-G58X-W3KG?i=2&wc=MXBY-…
Diego Alonso and Maria del Hierro would eventually move to San Felipe, Gto, where he died 2 Feb 1657, and she, 25 Jun 1658.
The children of Diego Alonso and Maria del Hierro are:
1. Alonso Alonso de los Hinojos Hierro, b. 02 Dec 1613, Sagrario, Zamora.

JUAN ALONSO DE LOS HINOJOS AND BEATRIZ LOPEZ DEL CASTILLO
Juan Alonso de los Hinojos and Beatriz Lopez del Castillo likely married in Zamora, Mich, where they baptized Magdalena, 30 Apr 1610. The madrina for the baptism of Juana, 30 Dec 1613, was the child’s grandmother, Juana Lopez, who would be the mother of Beatriz Lopez del Castillo.
On 27 Nov 1618, Diego de Espinosa recognized that he owed Juan Alonso 300 pesos for the purchase of 30 mules, as many male as female, of various colors and wearing the brand, drawn in the margin. By this time, Juan Alonso was already living in San Luis Potosi.
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33SQ-G58X-7RXX?i=52&wc=MXBY…
On 30 Sep 1622, Juan Alonso and his wife, Beatriz Lopez del Castillo recognize that they owe Capitan Jorge Beneciano 400 pesos de oro comun. Mentioned are their slaves, Gracia e Ysabel Criollas en Cdad Mexico y de edad de 22 anos, whom I imagine they use as collateral. Neither Juan Alonso nor Beatriz Lopez could sign their names, and one of the witnesses present, was Diego Alonso de los Hinojos El Moso.
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33S7-958X-7Y2V?i=228&wc=MXB…

6. Joseph Alonso de los Hinojos Lopez, b. 03 Dec 1621, Sagrario, San Luis Potosi.
* I don’t have it confirmed that Maria Lopez del Castillo cc Alonso Martin Mateos is part of this family group, though for reasons cited in an earlier post in this thread, I think it’s likely.
LORENSO SANCHEZ DE ULLOA AND YSABEL MARTIN
Lorenso Sanchez de Ulloa was married to Ysabel Martin/ez, daughter of Diego Martin and Mari Gomez.
On 25 Jul 1615, Lorenso Sanchez de Ulloa, dueño de requa, and his brother-in-law, Juan Muñoz, promised to pay Francisco de Fuente, resident of Mexico City, and Simon Luis, 528 pesos of common gold for 16 mules, male and female, of assorted colors.
