I wrote an article many years ago titled NOTES ON THE MONTES VIGIL FAMILY OF ZACATECAS for Herencia Journal, which is for the Hispanic Genealogical Research Center of New Mexico. It has a lot of entries from the civil archives in Zacatecas for the Vigil family.

So far, not much is known about the ancestry of Catalina de Herrera Cantillana, except she came from Spain.

I will see if a pasajero entry has been found for her. Francisco's mother may never be known, as in two wills, his father Juan Montes Vigil never gave his mother's name.

The Jimenez de Ancizo family has yet to be researched, to my knowledge. But I am continuing my search for these ancestors, as are many other dedicated researchers and genealogists.

Hi Tricia,

I'm sorry I can't offer any information on the Vigil family from Zacatecas
but I do have a question for you. It seems that several of the Francisco
Vigil's had this as a surname - Montes Vigil De Santillana

When I go to the LDS new.familysearch.org site and follow the various links
going back I don't see the person who was a
parent/grandparent/greatgrandparent who wore the Santillana surname. Do you
know how Santillana was introduced to this line of Montes Vigil de
Santillana's???

Main reason I'm asking is that my Balthasar Vigil is referred to as
Balthasar Vigil Antillana in one record and since Antillana is so rare I
have to think it is Santillana and that maybe there is a connection here:

Jan.28, 1780 Juana Nepomucena Carvajal, HL Dionicio Carvajal y Juana Vargas
con Jose Antonio Vigil Antillana, HL Barltasar Vigil Antillana y Juana
Lugarda Tafoya

Do you think that the name comes from the "Herrera Cantillana" you mention
in your email. Really stretching here but

Joseph and Tricia:

This is my grandmother´s line she was born in Albuquerque, New Mexico in 1929, but was grew up in the San Francisco/Oakland area during the 40-50s. She descends from Francisco Montes de Vigil son of Capt. Francisco Montes de Vigil and María Jiménez de Ancizo, the couple before mentioned. Through their son, Francisco Montes y Vigil who married Lorenza Quintana de Molina Medina married on 28 June 1744 in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Through sucession, this line would later marry into Lucero de Godoy, Romero and Chávez y Durán, whom my grandmother descends.

Everyone probably already knows the following, but it never gets too old, One word of caution with FamilySearch Pedigree Resource File, never take it to be the last deciding voice. It seems people like to publish facts without supporting records on certain ocassions. I have found on numerous ocasions errors to these so-called genealogies in which I had to correct and even reconstruct entire genealogical trees. Always
