Jose de Atienza Alcala y Escobar
(c. 1649 - after 1716)
Gertrudis Sevillano de Mancilla
(c. 1652 - after 1716)
José de Atienza de Alcala y Escobar and Gertrudis
Sevillano de Mancilla were the parents of
José de Atienza Sevillano II. We know this from LDS Disk # 38 Pins #
505057, #502279, and #502289. We also
know this from the research of Fray Angelico Chavez, published on pp.139-140 of
Origin of New Mexico Families.

JOSÉ
DE ATIENZA DE ALCALÁ Y ÉSCOBAR
was a native of Villa Berguera in the Archbishopric of Toledo [Spain]
boasted at a son’s wedding that was a
member of the Third Order of Saint Dominic. He and his wife, Gertrudis
Sevillano de Mancilla came [to New Mexico] with the colonists of 1693, with two adult sons, Juan and José, and two
minor ones, Manuel, fifteen; and Joaquín, thirteen. In 1698, old José signed his full name again
during another marriage deposition, again mentioned his Dominican affiliation
and gave his age as forty-nine. He gave his age as sixty-four in 1713. In 1716 he was granted permission to return
to New Spain [Mexico],
and it seems as though the family did
leave, except José II and his family, and Joaquín, who seems to have died
before that time.
José’s parents were Juan Fernández de Atienza and María
Margarita de Alcalá y Éscobar. We know this from LDS Disk #38 Pin
#502289 and Pin #505057. He was born in
1649 in Mexico City, New
Spain [Mexico].
Gertrudis was baptized 11 February 1649 in
Sagrario, Puebla de los Angeles, Mexico. Her parents were Alonso Sevillano and Ana del
Castillo Mancilla.
José
and Gertrudis were married 22 October
1667, in the Cathedral of Mexico City, Mexico. [Disk #38 Pin
502279]. They returned to the interior of Mexico
in 1716. They were accompanied by the
family of their son Manuel.
