Biography

Mariana was born about 1674 to Andrés Hurtado and Bernardina de Salas y Trujillo.^[1] In 1694, she married Manuel Gonzales Vallejo^[2] and they had 2 sons, Antonio and Lugardo. Manuel died by February 1704, according to a report listing Santa Cruz de la Cañada residents with land grants.^[3] Manuel had sold the Santa Cruz land in 1697 and they had moved to Bernalillo, where Mariana was living in 1704 with two minor step-children and presumably her own children with Manuel.^[3]

In 1727, Mariana served as a co-executor with her son Lugardo on her son Antonio's will.^[4]
