• Notes

  [Chavez.FTW] Don Fernando Duran y Chavez (II) also identified as "the capitan, was to all appearances, the third son of Don Fernando and his heir in New Mexico. He was mentioned as an Alferez and "youth of good repute" by Father Bernal in 1670. A captain by 1680, he fled the Indian Rebellion with the Rio Abajo people, but was the only one among the leaders who voted to turn back and help the Santa Fe colonist. Unlike the reset of the Chavez family, his uncle Pedro's family, and his first cousin, Fernando (the Sargento Mayor) of Taos, he did not try to impede the resettlement of New Mexico, nor did he ask to return to New Spain. He passed muster in September, 1680, as a married man with four small children and two servants, and was described in 1681 as a settler willing to return, thirty years old, married, and having a good stature with a fair and ruddy complexion. He must have been somewhat older that this, for he later testified at Guadalupe del Paso that he had witnessed the beheading of eight men in 1643. Or else, wary of signing a paper against the Governor, he was referring to his father's experience in that year. His wife, as learned from post-Reconquest sources, was Lucia Hurtado de Salas, who fled with him and their four little children in 1680. They returned with a much increased family in 1693. This is the most important Chavez family, being the only one to return with Vargas, and is thus the parent stem of succeeding generations in New Mexico. (Origins of New Mexico Families, pages 20-21]. Don Fernando Duran y Chavez, who escaped in 1680 from the Sandia district with his wife, Lucia Hurtado, and four small children, the only member of the large Duran y Chavez clan to return with his family at the time of the Reconquest. [For more detailed treat see "El Palacio", Vol. 55, No. 4, pp. 103-121. Some emendations in this present work -"Origins of New Mexico Families" are the result of more data found.] During the 1680-1693 exile at Guadalupe del Paso he took part in the futile Otermin Expedition, and was one of the Regidores of the colony, and with the arrival of Governor Vargas he became one of his councillors. In the grand "ENTRADA" into Santa Fe, December 16, 1693, Don Fernando led with the Royal Standard as Real Alferez, but soon after moved to the ancestral lands at Bernalillo; here and at San Felipe Pueblo he maneuvered the colonists and Indians so as to forestall disaster during the uprising of 1696, though he had to disagree with Vargas as to tactics; subsequently he vanquished the Jemez Indians at San Diego Canyon, when they fled into the Navajo country. Governor Vargas, taken ill during an Apache campaign in the Sandias in 1704, was carried to Bernalillo where he made his will and die, presumably in the Chavez house, for Don Fernando and his eldest son, Bernardo, signed as official witnesses of the last will and testament. By 1707 he and the family had moved to Atrisco, while Bernard and his young family remained at Bernalillo. At Atrisco Don Fernando made his last will on February 11, 1707, but he was still living as late as 1712. By 1716 he was referred to as dead. His widow, Lucia Hurtado de Salas, lived with some of her sons until her death on February 3, 1729. Their ten children are named in their father's will in this order: Bernardo, Pedro, Antonio, Isabel, Francisco, Luis Nicolas, Maria, Catalina, and Pedro Gomez Duran. The four eldest had been born before 1680 in the Sandia-Bernalillo area; the rest at Guadalupe del Paso. Before his marriage Don Fernando had a natural daughter, Clara de Chavez, mother not known, who became the wife of Juan de la Mora Pineda. Of his three daughters, Isabel, married Jacinto Pelaez, and then Baltasar de Mata; Maria, wife of Antonio de Ulibarri, died without issue: and Catalina became the wife of Matias de Miranda. From Carlos Lapopolo's "The New Mexico Chronicles-Los Lunas - Los Chavez": Of all the Chavez family members, only Fernado II and his family returned to New Mexico after the 1580 revolt. From the article "From Duran y Chavez to Martinez" by Daniel E. Martinez: Don Fernando Duran y Chavez (II) born circa 1651, was married to Doña Lucia Hurtado de Salas who fled with him and their four children to Guadalupe del Paso during the Indian Revolt of 1680 Doña Lucia was the daughter of Don Andres Hurtado and Doña Bernardina de Salas. Don Fernando was the only member of the large Duran ly Chavez clan to return to New MExico with his wife and famiy at the time of the reconquest in 1693. Circa 1694 he moved to the Chavez ancestral lands at Bernalillo, New Mexico. Don Diego de Vargas, then Governor of New Mexico, was taken gravely ill during an Indian Campaign in 1703 and died in the Chavez home. Don Fernando and his eldest son, Bernardo, signed as official witnesses okf his last will and testament. Don Fernando was dead by 1716 and Doña Lucia was buried on the third of February 1729 at Alburquerque, New Mexico.
