• Background Information:
Manuel Vallejo González [ONMF: 303], progenitor of the Vallejos family of New Mexico, was first married with María Nicolasa López in Mexico City. This couple presented themselves to the authorities of the Catedral de México to record their banns of matrimony on September 4, 1682. The banns record provides tha names of the parents of Manuel Vallejo:

"Manuel Vallejos nl del Pueblo de Alasingo [sic Acasingo] del obispado de la Ciudad de los Ángls y vezo desta de sies años aesta parte hijo lexmo. De Juan Vallejo y de Ana Gonzales i con María Nicolasa mestisa nl y veza desta ciud."

This couple were wed at the Sagrario of the Catedral de México, Ciudad México, on September 10, 1682. Witnesses to this union were: Captain Pedro Delgado, Antonio Delgado, and Francisco de Herrera. The oficiating priest was Bachiller Manuel Delgado Monzón. Manuel Vallejo and María Nicolasa were the parents of two known children: Ángela Vallejo, bt. October 16, 1685, Catedral de México, and Miguel Vallejo, bt. 1 March 1689, Catedral de México.

Widowed of his first wife, Manuel Vallejo entered into his second marrige with María Getrudis López de Arteaga. According to the banns of matrimony of this couple, which were recorded at the Catedral de México, Ciudad México, on May 6, 1691, María Getrudis was a daughter of Bernabé López and María Benites. Manuel and María Getrudis were married at the Sagrario of the Catedral de México on May 20, 1691. Witnesses to this union were Joseph Vasarena and Francisco de Herrera. The oficiating priest was once again Bachiller Manuel Delgado Monzón.

Manuel Vallejo and his wife enlisted as colonists for New Mexico in 1693. María Getrudis was in the last months of a pregnancy when this expedition to New Mexico left Mexico City in early September 1693. Something around mid-late September 1693, María Getrudis went into labor, and died in childbirth. It appears that her child survived the birth since subsequent muster rolls show an additional child in the household of Manuel Vallejo. This additional child was a son.
