En el siglo XVI, don Mateo de Rubalcava, trasmerano, emigró a Indias, estableciéndose en la Nueva España. En su cónyuge, doña Juana María González, hubo a don Alonso de Rubalcava, genearca de una familia novohispana que durante todo el virreinato ocuparía diversos cargos nobles y produciría notables ingenios.
The first known Rubalcava to arrive in the area of Nueva Galicia (Jalisco, Zacatecas and Aguascalientes) was Mateo González de Rubalcava, who was allegedly a native of Liérganes, Santander, born sometime around 1490. His wife was Juana María González, the daughter of the conquistador, Ruy Gonzalez. One of his sons was Capitán Alonso González de Ruvalcaba, who eventually moved to Teocaltiche (located in present-day Jalisco, just south of the State of Aguascalientes and east of Nochistlán in Zacatecas) and is the ancestor of many Rubalcava's in that area.[1]
