Daniel,

I am answering your question in this forum so that other members can participate and benefit with the information provided. I have done extensive research on this family, so here it is the basic info. in a nutshell:

Luis de los Reyes and Juana de Vargas were married 27 Dec 1636 in Aguascalientes. Juana used the surname Vargas for about 16 years, then all of a sudden she began using the surname Tiscareño. Apparently, she was child of Luis Tiscareño de Molina, born shortly before he married Lorenza Ruiz de Esparza in 1623. Luis Tiscareño appears as "soltero" shortly before he married Lorenza, not "viudo".

Luis de los Reyes and Juana de Vargas (aka Juana de Tiscareño) had at least 10 children born between 1638-1665, i.e. Juan, María, Luisa, Luis, Isabel, Josepha, Inés, Juana, Theresa and Antonio.

Luisa, born in 1643, married Antonio Dias de Lomas 9 Jul 1670 in Aguascalientes.

Hi Bill I found this while going through the baptisms for Aguas

En la Villa de Aguas. en 27 de septiembre de 1643....bauticé una niña...Luisa, española hija de Luís de los Reyes y Juana de Vargas, españoles......

Do you think these are the same Luis Reyes and Juana Tiscareño? Same time frame and place have you worked on this couple? Is Juana Tiscareño de molina the same as Juana de Vargas? Could ????? de Vargas be the possible first wife of Luis Tiscareño before marrying Lorenza Ruiz de Esparza? Then Juana could have used the mother's name? I was fixing the tree, did this couple had a Luisa Reyes ? I had Antonio Dias de Lomas as husband to both Luisa Reyes and Luisa Tiscareno? Am i correct? Who was Antonio Dias de Lomas' wife? Im confused, thanks in advance! -Daniel

Comment

Bill,
What is the evidence to support Juana Vargas (Tiscareño) as natural child of Luis Tiscareño de Molina? Is Luis listed in the marriage record of Luis de los Reyes and Juana de Vargas? I would be very interested in this information. Regarding this family, I have also done a fair bit of research, and I know that some members like George and Mickey will be interested in the following information, in particular as it relates to the relationship to the Medina family. Daniel may be intersted in some of the Tiscarenos. Regarding the children of Luis and Juana, I only had 9, I was missing Luis. In here I am including 5 generations.

Hi All, my email is working again, im recieving the messages! Thanks to Arturo and Joseph who were working hard to get this thing working! Well anyway, Bill I am still confused at least on the Luisa Tiscareño, this is a new question, I guess was Luisa Tiscareño (hija de Luís y Lorenza) married to both Andrés López de Nava? (I think he appears at least once as González de Ruvalcaba or just Ruvalcaba) and Antonio Díaz de Lomas? I am so confused, because I though Luisa Tiscareño Esparza was married to Antonio but you said its Luisa Reyes Vargas? By the way, which Luisa was married to Marcos Marín de Peñaloza? Any comments appreciated! Thanks in advance to all within this post. -Daniel P.S. its possible that Luís recognized Juana and then she used his name? Its odd someone can just out of the blue use a different last name? Her mother could be a Vargas since usually natural children take the mother's name.

Daniel,

Luisa Reyes Tiscareño married Antonio Díaz de Lomas; Isabel de los Reyes
Tiscareño married Diego Díaz de Lomas; and Theresa de los Reyes Tiscareño
married Francisco Díaz de Lomas. Antonio, Diego and Francisco Díaz de Lomas
were brothers, and Luisa, Isabel and Theresa Reyes Tiscareño were sisters.

Juana de Vargas probably changed her name to Juana de Tiscareño when her
father acknowledged her as a legitimate child before he died in 1660.

The Luisa de Esparza that married Marcos Marín de Peñaloza was a servant at
the Hacienda del Saucillo. Both Luisa and Marcos were "indios" that worked
for the powerful and wealthy Tiscareño and Marín de Peñaloza families. I
mentioned them in a previous message to illustrate the common practice among
slave owners/employers to allow some slaves & servants to use their surnames
when they didn't have one.

Jaime, Daniel

Les escribo en español para mayor facilidad, ya que tengo poco tiempo disponible. Mas tarde les haré otros comentarios, pero creo que lo siguiente les va a interesar.

En el testamento otorgado en Aguascalientes en 1675 por Luis de los Reyes, declaró lo siguiente:

“En el nombre de Dios todopoderoso amen. Sepan cuantos la presente carta vieren de mi testamento., como Yo Luís de los Reyes, vecino de esta villa de Aguascalientes, hijo legítimo de Luís de Murguía y de María de la Cruz, vecinos que fueron de la Ciudad de México, ya difuntos, estando enfermo de una enfermedad que nuestro señor fue servido de darme, en mi entero juicio, tal cual nuestro Señor me la ha dado, considerando que todo ser viviente es mortal ...etc. etc.

Yten, declaro que soy casado y velado siguiendo la orden de nuestra santa madre iglesia con Juana de Tiscareño y mediante nuestro matrimonio hemos tenido y procreado por nuestros hijos a Juan de los Reyes María de la Cruz, Luisa de los Reyes

Comment

Bill,
The information you sent us is fascinating. I had estimated the dates of the births of Luis Reyes and Juana de Tiscareno rather late, based on the birthdates of some of their children. In checking Juan de Reyes christening, I found some interesting facts. First, he is listed as mestizo (were any of the other children listed that way?). Second, he was very ill, in danger of dying. so that as a precaution Maria de la Jara (I guess the same aunt of Juana mentioned in Luis' last will). It reads:

(Al margen) Juan Mestizo

En la Villa de Aguas Calientes en doce dias del mes de noviembre de mill y seiscientos y treinta i ocho en la (Iglesia) Parrochial catechise y exorcise; puse los olios Stos a un nino a quie en caso de necessi(dad) Baptizo Maria de la Jara y puso por nombre Juan, hijo legitimo de Luis de los Reyes y Juana de Vargas fue su Madrina de Baptismo y cathequismo ls susodicha y para que

Jaime and Bill et al. I was snoppoing around I found this in my records

Miguel de Velasco hijo de Francisco de Velasco y Nicolasa Ruiz de Esparza, hijo de Pedro Ruiz de Esparza, hijo de don Lope Ruiz de Esparza etc..y María de la Jara, hija de Miguel de Espinosa y Leonor de Estrada casaron 31 jul 1692, i just listed the Esparza conntection to see if anyone needs it. Is this María de la Jara related to Juana Tiscareño aka: Juana de Vargas? Since this María Jara parents do not include Jara it must be through a grandmother.

We need to find out more about the Jara family? Has anyone researched the,? -Daniel

Daniel and Bill,
I've found Maria's (Jara Espinosa) christening record, and I thinkd we can conclude that the "de la Jara" was perhaps given by her god parents:

(al margen) Ma. Española
En la Villa de aguascalientes en once dias del mes de marso de mill y seis sientos y setenta y un años baptise y puse os Santos olios a Maria hija lexitima de Miguel de Espinosa y de Leonor de Estrada su lexitima mujer fueron sus padrinos Luis de los Reies y Juana de Tiscareno a quienes adverti la obligacion y cognacion espiritual.

As Bill revealed to us, Juana Tiscareno was the protegee of aunt Maria de la Jara

Comment

Jaime and Daniel,

As Jaime mentioned in an earlier message, Juan de los Reyes Tiscareño was
described by the priest as being "mestiso". All other children of Luis de
los Reyes and Juana de Tiscareño were described as "españoles". Of their
ten children, this is the only one described as "mestiso" but I have my
suspicions that Juana de Vargas was an illegitimate child of Luis Tiscareño
and that her mother, probably a sister of María de la Jara, may have been
"india" or "mestisa". Here is a transcription of the baptism of Juan de los
Reyes:

Al margen: "Joan mestiso"

"En la Villa de Aguas Calientes en dos dias del mes de noviembre de mill y
seiscientos y treintaiocho años en la Parrochial cathechise y exorcise, puse
los olios Stos a un niño a quien en caso de necesidad Baptiso María de la
Jara y puso por nombre Juan, hijo legitimo de Luis de los Reyes y Juana de
Vargas fue su madrina de Baptismo y cathecqismo la susodicha y para que

Comment

Daniel,
Thanks for the info on Maria de Jara. I think we have made a very important breakthrough. After checking several records it appears Maria Jara (daughter of Miguel de Espinosa and Leonor Estrada) married to Miguel de Velasco, is the Maria Espinosa married to Miguel de Velasco we discussed a few days ago in another Forum. At the time we were exchanging information on Margarita Diaz Tiscareno married to Jose Maria Velasco, the son of Miguel Velasco and Maria Julian Beltran de la Cueva, in turn son of Miguel Velasco and Maria Espinosa. The timeline matches perfectly, and someone submitted several records to LDS of christenings and births of children of Miguel Velasco and Maria Espinosa, where she is listed as "Maria Jara Espinosa." It is possible that the "de Jara" was adopted in honor of Juana Tiscareno's aunt Maria de Jara, mentioned in the last testament of her husband Luis Reyes. Now, it would be interesting to figure out what is the connection of the two Marias.

Daniel,

As far as I know, the compounded surname Beltrán de la Cueva started with
Pedro de la Cueva and Elena Beltrán. Some of their children used the
surname Beltrán de la Cueva, although sometimes they used only De la Cueva.
Pedro and Elena baptized five children en Aguascalientes between 1679-1690.

Bill,
I'm convinced! You have presented enough direct evidence to leave little doubt that Juana Tiscareño married to Luis de Reyes was the daughter of Luis de Tiscareño. Further, it is clear that this Juana is not the same Juana, daughter of Lorenza, because we know she died 'single'. The only one thing that surprises me is how 'forgiving' Lorenza was of the 'situation' to even become the madrina of Inés in1656, just shortly after Juana started using the Tiscareño surname (1654), perhaps because she Luis recognized her in public. In many regards, Lorenza's action must have served as a validation of Juana's status.
Great research work!

Comment

Bill and Daniel,
In the burial record of Nicolasa Beltran de la Cueva -the names of her parents are listed as Pedro Beltran de la Cueva and Elena Beltran de la Cueva both from the town of Irapuato. Yet, in all the christenings of this couple children, they appears as Pedro de la Cueba and as Elena Beltran. Later, as Bill correctly mentioned, the Beltran de la Cueva appears. I wonder if they were indeed Beltran de la Cueva, maybe cousins and they were trying to hide the fact. I've tried to find more info on these couple, without success. However, there are records of the surname Beltran de la Cueba, Veltran de la Cueva, or Veltran de la Cueba in Guadalajara and in Guanjuato extending back to the mid 1600's.

The interesting part is Elena apparently uses the surnames Jaén (same as the Esparza do) and Gaytán where do these fit in. Pedro de la Cueva y Elena de Beltrán aka: Elena de Gaytán aka: Elena de Jaén -Daniel

Saludos a todos:

Algun pariente o linea de Asencio Santillán y Juana Hilaria (María) Manrique casaron en Aguascalientes el día 14 de febrero de 1762. El acta dice: ... Asencio Santillán, originario de Lagos y vecino de esta Villa en Garabatos, hijo natural de María Marta Santillán; con Juana Hilaria Manrique, originaria y vecina de ésta Villa en dicho Garabato, hija legítima de Rafael Manriquez y de Gertrudis Efigenia Serrano.

Sobre todo ligas o linea ancestral de Asencio y su mama María Marta Santillán ya que no viene nombre del padre por lo cual supongo que fue una madre soltera o algo parecido vecinos de Lagos.

Gracias de antemano

Antonio Santilan
