The Sánchez de Iñigo Puzzle
New Genealogical Considerations
By Josá Antonio Esquibel
The genealogy of the Sánchez de Iñigo family of seventeenth-century
New Mexico has been a puzzle for researchers interested in uncovering the
paternal origins of this distinct New Mexican family. Fray Angélico Chávez
identified the progenitor of the Sánchez de Iñigo family as Juana López, the
mother of Jacinto Sánchez de Iñigo and Pedro Sánchez de Iñigo, and
presumably the mother of doña Francisca Sánchez de Iñigo. A
pre-nuptial investigation record for Pedro referred to his mother, Juana
López, and did not offer any clues as to the identity of his father. Similar
records for Jacinto Sánchez de Iñigo and doña Francisca Sánchez de Iñigo do
not identify the names any parents for these individuals. The origin of the
Sánchez de Iñigo surname used by these individuals has stumped New Mexico
genealogical researchers for the past fifty years, particularly because
there have not been any records extracted for a seventeenth-century settler
of A New Mexico with this surname. As such, It has been thought that the
Sánchez de Iñigo children were perhaps the children of one or more men
living in New Mexico during the latter half of the 1600s. Now, recent
research into seventeenth-century Inquisition records pertaining to New
Mexico has lead to uncovering records for a man who was accused of "living
scandalously" with a woman named Juana López de Aragón in 1663, and the
surname this man's mother was Sánchez de Iñigo.
We know from Chávez's research that Jacinto Sánchez de Iñigo was born circa
1663, having declared his age as twenty-two in 1685 and his birthplace as
New Mexico. Pedro Sánchez de Iñigo, born circa 1673-1674, identified
himself as a native of New Mexico and a son of Juana López when he sought to
marry doña Leonor Baca in December 1691 at El Real de San Lorenzo in the El
Paso,del Rio del Norte area.3 Pedro signed his petition of marriage,
indicating he was a literate individual. In a later pre- nuptial
investigation record, dated 1698, Pedro Sánchez de Iñigo was clearly
identified as a son of Juana López, not Ana López as parenthetically
indicated by Fray Ángelico Chávez. In 1692, Juana López and Jacinto
Sánchez were padrinos for Francisco de Apodaca and Maria Lopez de Luna when
this couple married at Corpus Christi de Ysleta in the region of EI Paso del
Rio del Norte. Curiously, Jacinto Sánchez de Iñigo claimed he did not
know the names of his parents when he sought to marry his second wife, Maria
Rodarte de Castro Xabalera, in 1696. Jacinto also had knowledge of letters
since he wrote and signed his own marriage petition in 1696. One of the
witnesses for this pre- nuptial investigation was Juan Trujillo, a native of
the Rio Abajo region of New Mexico, who declared he had known Jacinto "desde
de que nacio" ("since he was born")
On May 4, 1681, doña Francisca Sánchez de Iñigo married Juan Garcia de Noriega, son of Maese de Campo Alonso Garcia and doña Teresa Varela. Although Garcia de Noriega's parents were identified in the pre-nuptial investigation record, the names of doña Francisca's parents were not recorded. Two witnesses on behalf of doña Francisca, Tiburcio de Ortega and Juan de Madrid, both declared they had known her ""desde nina de pecho" (""since she was a suckling child") and both certified that she was a ""Christiana e hija de Christianos biejos" (""Christian and daughter of old Christians"), indicating they probably knew the identity of her parents but for whatever reason they kept the information from the record.
In early 1692 each of the three Sánchez de Iñigo individuals were residing at EI Paso del Rio del Norte with their spouses and each indicated their willingness to re-enter and settle New Mexico under the command of Governor don Diego de Vargas. Doña Francisca Sánchez de Iñigo and her husband Captain Juan Garcia de Noriega, the alguacil mayor (high sheriff) of the Santa Fe cabildo (town council) were listed as the second household of EI Paso with four children (Juan Antonio, age eleven; Francisco, age seven; José, five; and Maria, two) and ten others in their service. Their son, Juan Antonio, was baptized at the church of Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe in EI Paso on March 15, 1682, and was identified as being ""español," the son of Juan Garcia and doña Francisca Sánchez de Iñigo. Jacinto Sánchez de Iñigo and Pedro Sánchez de Iñigo were listed as households number thirty-three and thirty-four, respectively. In the household of Jacinto and his first wife, Isabel Telles Jirón, were their two children, Juana, age four, and José, age one and a half, and one female dependent whose name was not given. Pedro Sánchez de Iñigo and his wife Leonor Baca were listed immediately following the family of Jacinto without any children or other dependents, and Pedro declared he was ready to enter New Mexico. Juana López is not accounted for in the list of families preparing to return to New Mexico, but she appears to be the Juana López listed as a widow immediately before the children of Jacinto Sánchez in the 1697 cattle distribution census. In her household was her niece named Lucinda.
Curiously, Jacinto and his brother Pedro, as well as the family of doña
Francisca Sánchez de Iñigo, were not accounted for in the 1697 cattle
distribution census, although immediately following Juana López were the
names of the ""orphans" of Jacinto Sánchez named as Juana, Gertrudis, and
Pedro. This absence from the census list may be accounted for by the fact
that Jacinto and Pedro were on the official roster of the one hundred
soldiers of Santa Fe in 1697. In addition, doña Leonor Baca, Pedro's
wife, was killed in the Pueblo Indian uprising of June 1696, and thus there
was only mention of an orphaned daughter of hers in the 1697 census.
The name of the father of the Sánchez de Iñigo siblings has remained a
mystery since the publication of Origins of New Mexico Families fifty years
ago. Fray Angélico Chávez speculated that the Sánchez de Iñigo children were
fathered by a member of the Dominguez de Mendoza family and that Juana López
"could well have been" a daughter of Diego López de Castillo. This
statement has led some researchers to identify Juana López as Juana López
del Castillo. As discussed below, records indicated that Juana López may
instead have been a member of the López de Aragón family.
Also recent research into Inquisition records of New Mexico has uncovered information that Juana López de Aragón had an affair with a man whose maternal family surname was Sánchez de Iñigo.
Valuable Clues
In the latter part of 1659 and through the early 1660s, Pueblo Indians as
well as vecinos and other residents of New Mexico were encouraged by
Governor don Bernardo López de Mendizábal to come forward with complaints
about the lifestyle of the Franciscan friars. Inquiries were set up under
López de Mendizábal's authority. Allegations that included the fathering of
children with Pueblo Indians and sexual affairs with Spanish women were
brought to light. Although the specific records of these inquiries have not
yet been uncovered, or perhaps were part of the royal archive in Santa Fe
destroyed in 1680, scattered references to the alleged misbehavior of some
Franciscan friars appear in recorded testimonies of Inquisition documents of
the early 1660s. Inquisition officials in Mexico City examined the
allegations and agreed that there were abuses by some friars. It was
reported that some women did not go to confession "because they were
solicited in the confessional," and those friars that fathered children were
known to have provided dowries for their daughters.
One friar, Fray Francisco Muñoz, was denounced by Diego Pérez Romero, who in
August 1663 stated that Muñoz "vivido siempre muy escandolossamente"
("always lived very scandalously") with a daughter of Captain Diego de
Trujillo referred to as 'La Donosa' and her first cousin doña Juana López de
Aragón. With this information, as well as that related to other friars
accused of affairs with women, I began searching for sources concerning the
history and genealogy of the friars in New Mexico. Jake Ivey, an art
historian and archeologist in Santa Fe, graciously loaned me a microfilm
copy of Libro de contradas y profesiones de novicios de este convento de
Padre San Francisco de Mexico 1562-1680, a source from the Bancroft
Library. Scanning page by page through the copy of original documents,
one particular record caught my eye with the surname of Sánchez de Iñigo.
This turned out to be the record for Fray Francisco Muñoz who at age
eighteen took the habit of San Francisco on December 20, 1646, in Mexico
City. He was as a native of Puebla de los Ángeles, New Spain, and his mother
was Madalena Sánchez de Iñigo.
Sánchez de Iñigo is a distinct and uncommon Spanish surname. 'Sánchez' is a
patronym and 'Iñigo' is an ancient Basque given name popularized by the
royal family of Navarra in the Middle Ages. This combination of a patronym
with a given name connected by the article 'de' is the equivalent of
something like 'Ramirez de Diego' or 'González de Pedro,' or in English it
is akin to 'Anderson of Henry' or 'Johnson of Peter.' Alternatively, it
should also be considered that there may be a small town in Spain named
Iñigo and thus Sánchez de Iñigo would follow the general pattern of a
patronym followed by a toponym (place name). In either case, Sánchez de
Iñigo is a distinctive and rare extended surname.
The next intriguing piece of information was that Fray Francisco Munoz's father was named Jacinto Munoz. As a given name, Jacinto was not as common as names such as Francisco, Juan, Diego, Pedro, or Cristobal, which can be found more frequently in records of early seventeenth-century New Spain and New Mexico. The full record of the acceptance of the Franciscan habit of Fray Francisco Munoz reads:

In this record Fray Francisco Muñoz was identified as a native of Puebla, age eighteen (b.ca.1629), and a legitimate son of Jacinto Muñoz and doña Madalena Sánchez de Iñigo. As discussed further below, Fray Francisco Muñoz was a Franciscan priest who was in New Mexico as early as 1660 and survived the Pueblo Indian Revolt of August 1680.
The information presented above offers intriguing clues that allow researchers to seriously consider the parents of the Sánchez de Iñigo family of New Mexico as Fray Francisco Muñoz Sánchez de Iñigo and doña Juana López de Aragón. The surname of Sánchez de Iñigo appears in records of late seventeenth-century New Mexico. During that period, based on genealogical research of the past fifty years, the only known individuals with this surname living in New Mexico were Fray Francisco Muñoz Sánchez de Iñigo (b. ca. 1629), the two sons of Juana Lopez -Jacinto Sanchez de Inigo (b.ca 1663) and Pedro Sanchez de Inigo (b.ca 1673-1674)- and Francisca Sánchez de Iñigo (an apparent sister of Jacinto and Pedro). In addition, given names that appear in the early generations of the Sánchez de Iñigo family -such as Jacinto, Pedro, Francisca, Francisco, and Juana- are also found in the genealogy of Fray Francisco Muñoz and doña Juana López de Aragón, which is in accordance with the tradition of naming children after immediate relatives.
López de Aragón
Doña Juana López de Aragón was a daughter of Francisco López de Aragón and
doña Ana Baca, and was referred to as a first cousin of a woman named only
as 'La Donosa,' a daughter of Diego de Trujillo. Francisco López de Aragón
owned an estancia called El Alamo, which upon his death before 1659 was then
owned by his wife, doña Ana Baca. When Governor don Bernardo López de
Mendizábal arrived in New Mexico in July 1659 he called for the vecinos
(tax-paying citizens) of New Mexico to come to Santa Fe and present their
papers and titles. Doña Ana Baca, as a widow, appeared in Santa Fe on July
19, 1659, to present her papers, which was recorded by the governor's
secretary Miguel de Noriega. These papers, most likely including the service
papers of her husband as well as title to their land, consisted of twenty
pages. Doña Ana Baca was a literate woman who wrote a petition in October
1661 in response to the call for citizens to come forward with any
complaints about Governor López de Mendizábal during his residencia (review
of his tenure ). In this petition she mentioned she owned an estancia for
farming four leagues from Santa Fe call El Alamo and without knowing how she
had the small amount of land tilled and sown with assistance from her
brother-in-law, whom she did not name, but mentioned he had gone to the "provincias
de moquino." This information corresponds to Captain Diego de Trujillo, who
was appointed as alcalde mayor of the jurisdiction of the provinces of Moqui
in 1659 by Governor López de Mendizábal. This is further clarified by
the identification of a daughter of Diego de Trujillo as a cousin of doña
Juana López de Aragón, which supports the identification of Trujillo as the
brother-in-law of doña Ana Baca. This relationship provides a critical piece
of information because in 1696 Juan de Trujillo was a witness for the
pre-nuptial investigation of Jacinto Sánchez de Iñigo. Trujillo stated he
had known Jacinto since his birth circa 1663. Juan de Trujillo was born
circa 1650-1651, and thus would have been about twelve years old when
Jacinto was born. Jacinto Sánchez de Iñigo and Juan Trujillo could very well
have been relatives, thus accounting for Trujillo's familiarity with Jacinto
since birth. If so, then perhaps Juana López, the mother of the Sánchez de
Iñigo siblings, may indeed have been doña Juana López de Aragón.
Fray Angélico Chávez postulated that Juana López de Aragón was the same
individual as Juana de Aragon, who was killed in Taos at the time of the
Pueblo Indian uprising and who was the wife of Sebastián de Herrera
Corrales. Additional research is needed to clarify whether doña Juana
López de Aragón was the same person known as Juana López, who survived the
uprising, or Juana de Aragón, who died in August 1680.
Muñoz and Sánchez de Iñigo
Fray Francisco Muñoz was a Franciscan priest assigned to New Mexico by 1660.
In September of that year, Muñoz was mentioned as being the guardian friar
of the Pueblo of Picuris in a statement made by Fray Nicolás de Chávez in
Mexico City, who further mentioned: "And this Father Francisco Muñoz went to
the convent of San Marcos where this deponent was alone... ..and on that
same morning, Saturday, he [Muñoz] met this deponent two leagues from the
convent of San Marcos at a farm which they call Los Cerrillos -the owner of
which is Doña Bernardina, widow of one Diego Márquez whom they beheaded in
New Mexico..." Providing testimony at the Pueblo de Isleta on May 25,
1661, Fray Francisco Muñoz, age thirty (b. ca. 1631), denounced Captain Juan
Dominguez de Mendoza for making amorous advances towards his comadre doña
Ana Moreno de Trujillo, wife of Cristóbal Baca. Two years later, in August
1663, Muñoz was referred to as the guardian of the Pueblo de San Ildefonso
and was denounced in a statement of Captain Diego Romero as having "always
lived scandalously" ("vivido siempre muy escandolossamente") with a woman
known only as 'La Donosa,' daughter of Captain Diego de Trujillo, and with
her cousin doña Juana López de Aragón. It is not certain if the Office of
the Inquisition investigated this allegation against Muñoz. Two
years later, on October 15, 1665, at the Pueblo of Sandia, Fray Francisco Muñoz identified himself as a native of the "Ciudad de los Ángeles" (Puebla de los Ángeles, New Spain) and gave his age as thirty-six (b.ca. 1629). This information matches that which was provided in the record of his acceptance of the Franciscan habit in 1646.
Fray Francisco Muñoz continued to serve in New Mexico and was at the Pueblo of Zia in August 1680 when he and four soldiers "escaped by dint of hard riding" on horseback with hostile Indians on their trail. They encountered a small troop of soldiers under the command of lieutenant general Alonso Garcia who escorted them to safety. On August 14th, while encamped at the Pueblo of Isleta, Fray Francisco Muñoz was one of the friars that agreed with the opinion of Garcia to continue moving southward to seek shelter, aid, and safety. Muñoz and other friars were consulted again at San Cristobal (September 14th) and at La Salineta (October 2nd). By October 15, 1680, the refugees were at EI Paso del Rio del Norte where Muñoz and three other friars wrote a letter addressed to the virceroy of New Spain. This is the last account of Fray Francisco Muñoz in New Mexico that has been extracted from archival documents in regard to the research of this article. Basically, Muñoz was in New Mexico from at least 1660 through the fall of 1680, representing a lengthy career in New Mexico spanning at least twenty years.
The maternal grandparents of Fray Francisco Muñoz, Pedro de lñigo and Maria
Sanchez were residents of the Ciudad de Puebla de los Ángeles, New Spain, in
the latter part of the 1500s. Their combined surnames formed the distinctive
Sánchez de lñigo family name. Their daughter doña Madalena Sánchez de lñigo
(also known as Madalena Sánchez), a native of Puebla de los Ángeles, was
first married on September 6, 1609, Puebla de los Ángeles, with Pedro López
de Villegas, a native of Madrid, Spain, and a son of Domingo López and Ynés
de Villegas. Their marriage was recorded in the books of the sagrario chapel
of the cathedral in Puebla de los Ángeles:
p Lopes Ma Sarces

Di Ortiz Lo firme

Four of their known children were baptized in the sagrario chapel of the
cathedral in Puebla de los Ángeles:
.Magdalena Lópes Sánchez, bt. July 1, 1620.
.Jusepa [Josefa] López Sánchez, bt. April 3, 1623.
.Pedro López, Sánchez, bt. February 10, 1625.
.Leonor López Sánchez, bt. May 28, 1627.
It is likely they had children born before 1620, but these children may not
have been baptized at the sagrario chapel of the Catedral de Puebla.
Additional research is needed to identify any other López-Sánchez children.
While pregnant with her daughter Leonor, doña Madalena Sánchez de Iñigo, widowed of Pedro López de Villegas, married Jacinto Muñoz on February 9, 1627, as recorded in the sacramental book of the sagrario chapel of the Catedral de Puebla. As seen in the transcription of this marriage record, Jacinto Muñoz was a native of Sevilla, Spain, and a son of Francisco Muñoz and Leonor Ortiz:

There is very likely a record of passage for Jacinto Muñoz, or for his
parents, that may be part of the records of the Archivo General de Indias in
Sevilla, Spain. Also, additional research into the Muñoz family genealogy
will need to be conducted using records for Sevilla. The Muñoz surname is a
Galician-Asturian patronym of northern Spain literally translated as 'son of
Munio,' and dates back to at least to the ninth century.
Jacinto Muñoz and doña Madalena Sánchez de Iñigo were the parents of at
least three children that were baptized in the sagrario chapel of the
Catedral de Puebla, including Francisco Muñoz who entered the religious
order of San Francisco:
.Francisco (I) Muñoz Sánchez, bt. October 16, 1628, who may have died within
the
first year of life.
.Francisco (II) Muñoz Sánchez, bt. October 22, 1629, who took the habit of
San
Francisco and declared he was 18 years old in 1646 (b. ca. 1629).
.Teresa Muñoz Sánchez, bt. February 9,1631.
The genealogy chart above provides a visual illustration of the genealogy of
the Sánchez de Iñigo family that emerges from the various fragments of
information that have been uncovered from archival documents. If Fray
Francisco Muñoz was indeed the father of the Sánchez de Iñigo children, as
is strongly suggested in the evidence presented above, he may have remained
in New Mexico out of desire to stay near his children.
Concluding Remarks
The research presented in this article is intended to assist further
genealogical research into the Sánchez de Iñigo family. The loss of so many
valuable historical records presents challenges for reconstructing many
seventeenth-century New Mexico family genealogies. In the case of the
Sánchez de Iñigo family, a few scatter fragments of critical information
have been uncovered that serve as important pieces of the family puzzle. As
such, the pattern of given names within the Sánchez de Iñigo family coupled
with the
distinctive surname of this family and the accusation of 'scandalously
living' against Fray ~ Francisco Muñoz offer an argument for considering
Muñoz as the father of the Sánchez
de Iñigo siblings. Surnames link individuals to previous generations of
paternal or maternal family members. This was particularly so in Spanish
society of the seventeenth century, which highly valued family honor. One
form of expression of this honor was in the use of paternal and maternal
given names and surnames. Whether there were ever records of friars of New
Mexico acknowledging their children will remain a mystery unless such
records come to light. In the meantime, it appears that Fray Francisco Muñoz
left a valuable clue for posterity by identifying his mother with the
distinctive and rare surname of Sánchez de Iñigo and by what appears to be
the christening of his sons with the given names of Jacinto (his father's
name) and Pedro (his maternal grandfather's name) and by passing along his
maternal family surname to these individuals.
The information presented in this article could be a bizarre set of
coincidences, or perhaps it was coincidence that brought to light these
surviving fragments of information from various sources to begin to put
together the lost pieces of the puzzle regarding the Sánchez de Iñigo
ancestry. The findings are shared for the sake of offering assistance to
restore the memory of a lost family lineage. In addition, this article
begins to seriously explore the topic of Franciscan friars having children
and leaving descendants in New Mexico. Interested readers are encouraged to
write their comments about the conclusions presented in this article and
address them to the editor of this genealogical journal. There may be
additional information collected by other researchers that will support,
refine, or even refute aspects of the findings presented here.
