The progenitors of the Baca family of New Mexico were Cristóbal Baca and his wife Ana Ortiz. Cristóbal was a military captain who arrived in 1600 with his family in order to help reinforce the colony. At the time, he had three grown daughters and a small son. The Bacas bore another son while livi,m,mng in New Mexico.[1] An ancestor is a parent or (recursively) the parent of an ancestor. ...

Family history
Cristóbal, the son of Juan de Vaca, was born in Mexico City circa 1567. His wife, also from that city, was the daughter of a certain Francisco Pacheco. Their children that came with them from Mexico City were Juana de Zamora, Isabel de Bohórquez, Maria de Villanueva and Antonio Baca. Of the daughters, Juana married Simón Perez de Bustillo, Isabel was the wife of Pedro Durán y Chaves, and Maria married Simón de Abendaño.

Antonio Baca was born circa 1600. He was married to Yumar Pérez de Bustillo who was born circa 1591. They had three daughters: Gertudris, who married Antonio Jorge; Ana, who married Francisco López de Aragón, and Antonia, who was the wife of Antonio de Albizu. It does not appear that Antonio had any sons to carry on the Baca name. Antonio was executed on 21 July 1643 for treason against the colonial government.

Alonzo Baca was apparently the younger brother of Antonio. Although he took part in the same conspiracy that resulted in his brother's death, Alonzo survived the affair. He may have had at least one son, another Cristóbal Baca. It appears that the Baca surname may have continued through Alonzo’s progeny.

The Pueblo Revolt occurred in 1680. Subsequently, many Spanish families fled New Mexico as refugees. When the Spaniards re-conquered New Mexico in 1693, Manuel Baca and his family were among those who returned to Santa Fe. Manuel was born circa 1653 and was the son of the second Cristóbal Baca. Manuel apparently had at least eight children with his wife Maria de Salazar. After arriving in New Mexico, they soon began living on land in Bernalillo previously owned by Manuel‘s father.

The Cabeza de Baca family The Cabeza de Baca Family is an offshoot of the Baca Family. The progenitor of this family is Luis María Cabeza de Baca. He was born as Luis Maria Baca on 26 October 1754, the oldest son of Juan Antonio Baca and Maria Romero. He had over 20 children by three different wives.

Continuing research Recently, researchers discovered documents that may shed light on Cristóbal Baca’s ancestry. It must be noted that these are just promising leads, and should not be taken as absolute proof.
As mentioned before, Juan de Vaca was the father of Cristóbal Baca. Baptismal records were discovered for three children of a certain Juan Baca and Juana de Zamora. These baptisms took place in the 1560s and 1570s, around the same time that Cristóbal was purported to have been born. Since one of Cristóbal’s daughters was named Juana de Zamora, it is argued that she may have been named after her paternal grandmother and thus this couple are Cristóbal’s parents. It was not unusual for a Spanish child at that time to given the surname, if not the full name, of a grandparent. Events and Trends In 1564 William Shakespeare was born. ...

It is further argued that a certain Cristóbal Vaca and Mayor Díaz may have been the parents of Juan de Vaca. A baptismal record from 1540 shows this couple as the parents of Baltazar Vaca. This couple could have easily been one generation younger than Juan, and therefore could have also been his parents.[7] For further information about this research, visit the Beyond Origins website.

Possible origin of the Baca surname The surname "Baca" is often assumed to be a variation of the name "Cabeza de Vaca." Cabeza de Vaca means "head of a cow" in Spanish. There are two possible origins of this name: - A Spanish shepherd Martin Alhaja was given the name by the Castillian King Alfonso VIII. In 1212 Alhaja placed a cow skull on the road that led to the victory of the Spanish king over the Moors at the battle of Navas de Tolosa in Andalusia. He was awarded a coat-of-arms that included cow skulls in its design.
- A Spanish knight by the name of Fernan Ruiz distinguished himself in a victory over the Moors at Córdoba in 1235. For his services, the king added Cabeza de Vaca to Ruiz's name. This name was taken from the area that the knight was born. Research into the Alvar Nuñez Cabeza de Vaca's genealogy indicates that a number of his ancestors and other relatives had the name Fernan Ruiz.[8]

Genealogical misconceptions
The Ortiz/Pacheco line Some researchers have discovered an erroneous link between Crístobal Baca’s wife Ana Ortíz and Cristopher Columbus, among others. As noted previously, Ana Ortíz was the daughter of one Francisco Pacheco. At least three separate articles published in genealogical journals have identified this man as Francisco Pacheco de Cordóva. [9] Not only have researchers found that Pacheco de Córdova had an impressive lineage, but so did his wife Juana de la Cueva y Toledo Colón. No authentic contemporary portrait of Columbus has been found; this late 19th-century engraving is one of many conjectural images For information about the director, see the article on Chris Columbus. ...
Ana Ortíz has also been shown to related to the famed explorer Francisco Vásquez de Coronado and Francisco Enriques, the Duke of Alburquerque. [10] The problem with this finding is that Francisco Pacheco de Córdova, and assumedly his wife, would have been too young to have been the parents of Ana Ortíz. Pacheco was born in 1573. Ana Ortíz’s daughter Isabel de Bohórquez was born circa 1586. Therefore, Pacheco would have been only 13 years older than the woman who would supposedly have been his granddaughter. [11] This article or section does not cite its references or sources. ...

Alvar Nuñez Cabeza de Vaca One assumption is that famed Spanish explorer Alvar Nuñez Cabeza de Vaca was an ancestor of Juan de Vaca and, consequently, Cristóbal Baca. In 1988, Dr. Eric Beerman reviewed the research that had been done on Cabeza de Vaca, and did not discover any information that this explorer had any direct descendants. However, he did not completely rule out that possibility.[12] Another researcher, George C' de Baca, did extensive research but was unable to find a connection between the New Mexico Baca family and the Cabeza de Vaca family in Spain. However, it is still generally assumed that the Baca surname originated from this noble family.[13] Ãlvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca (c. ...
