I have been looking at this subject, Trevino and Temino are totally different places in Spain. I think Trevino is in the Basque or Pamplona region of spain. I have heard this place, my mother's family comes prob 20 miles away in Santander, Espana. I will agree with Bill on the conquistadores, mostly came from Noble families, in Castilla and Andalucia, Espana. These members were of noble families mostly the other
siblings of the title holder. Since tradition is the oldest son gets all inheritance in the nobility, the other kids usally went to university or became in the church clergy. I would say roughly around 75% came from Castilla and 20% came from Andalucia while 5 % came from Aragon and 10% from other regions ins Spain. -Daniel Mendez del Camino

Look at this document. :

PROCESO DEL SANTO OFICIO DE LA INQUISICIÓN CONTRA LOPE DE SAAVEDRA POR AMANCEBADO.

En 3 de diciembre de 1539, ante Fray Juan de Zumarraga, primer Obispo de la ciudad de México y juez inquisidor, y en presencia de Miguel López de Legazpi, parecio Cristóbal Caniego, fiscal de dicho Santo Oficio y presentó denuncia contra Lopez de Sayavedra (Saavedra), natural de la villa de Cáceres, vecino de México, y marido de Elvira de León, acusado de estar amancebado con Francisca de León, su cuñada, y con Francisca de Velasco, prima hermana de ésta, con quien ha tenido hijos de las tres.

El primer testigo que se presenta es Beatriz de Alcocer, mujer de Juan de Salamanca, vecina de la ciudad de México (hija del Licenciado Pedro de León y de Beatriz de Alcocer[1]) y dijo que hacía cuatro años el dicho Lope de Saavedra se encontraba en Michoacán, siendo casado con su hermana Elvira de León, donde se quedó con Francisca de León, la cual quedaría embarazada y sería

It has everything to do with the Trevino surname. Diego, the son of Diego and Francisca Alcocer had children born in Mexico City and Zacatecas I believe to his wife Beatriz Quintanilla. Most of their descendants live in Coahuila, Nuevo leon, and Tamulipias and Texas and Louisana. In the early colonial period you could see temino and Trevino used interchangeably in documents.

Dna testing of Banuelos dna would answer a lot of questions. Trevino dna from the descendants of colonial residents of Nuevo Leon have already been tested. Trevinos also used mother surnames. Branches of trevinos using mother surname instead of father's included the Ayala family ( my own) and the Arriolas( also my own).

Anyone know any Banuelos descended from Baltasar who who would test?
