Family History of Francisco's GrandSon | The Prenuptial Investigation for the marriage of Francisco Chavez's grandson reveals the pedigree of Francisco de Chavez. Francisco Chavez was the illegitimate son of Tomé Dominguez of Nuevo Mexico but had taken the surname Chavez because he was raised in the household of Pedro Chavez. Prenuptial Investigation Into the Engagement of Joaquin Garda Villegas and Marla Josefa de Baca. [ Parral, 9 January.14 February 1781, AHAD- 92, f. 115-30.] Joaquin Garda Villegas, more than 20, a native of Parral jurisdiction, was the legitimate son of Joaquin Garcia Villegas and [illegible]. Maria Josefa de Baca, 15, a citizen of the Parral jurisdiction, was the legitimate daughter of Francisco Baca and Paula Rubí. Fray Jose Francisco de Frías conducted the proceedings at Parral before the notary, Felix Mariano de Bejarano. 3 Witnesses: Melchor Rodriguez, 40, married, citizen of the Parral jurisdiction, had known the couple since they were children. Santiago Munoz, 49, widower, citizen of the Parral jurisdiction. Jose Rodriguez, 35, single, citizen of the Parral jurisdiction. The banns were ordered published. On 27 January 1781 Father Frias noted that the widow Ana de Enriquez, 54, a citizen of the Parral jurisdiction, had heard the second reading and come forward with an impediment based on a relationship in the fourth degree equally of consanguinity. This was because Francisco Javier Chaves, the natural son of Tome Dominguez, used the surname Chaves because he was an orphan raised in the home of Pedro Chaves. Tome was the brother of Francisco Dominguez, great-grandfather of the petitioning couple, which produced the impediment. As a result of this charge, Frias suspended the third reading of the banns, and the couple was told of the denunciation and called to retestify. They stated that at the time of their first testimony they had been ignorant of any fourth-degree consanguinity relationship equally on a transverse line and of the fact that Francisco Javier Chaves was the natural son of Tome Dominguez. They still wished to marry with the bishop's dispensation. Garda Villegas prepared a lengthy statement identifying Matiana de Chaves as his mother. She was a second cousin of Francisco Baca, Josefa's father. Witnesses: On 3 February 1781 Bernardo Ronquillo, 60, a married citizen of the Parral jurisdiction said it was public knowledge that Tome Dominguez was the father of Francisco Javier Chaves. Francisco Javier was called Chaves because he had been raised by Pedro Chaves. Ronquillo also knew Esrefanla Dominguez, the daughter of Francisco Dominguez, the brother of Tome. She was the mother of Francisco Baca, father of the intended bride. From this it could be clearly deduced [hat the couple was related. Francisco Saenz Moreno, 73, of that area, a businessman and widower, repeated the previous testimony and added that Joaquin Garcia de Villegas was a person who applied himself to work and that there was no doubt that his intended wished to marry him and that her parents were poor. Jose Saenz Moreno, 60, a laborer and citizen of the same jurisdiction, repeated the previous testimony and added that because of the intermarriage of the Dominguez and Baca families and others, there was much suffering in that place, since everyone was related. Father Frias had a genealogical tree prepared: Tomé Domínguez(1), father of Tomé Domínguez(2) and Francisco Domínguez Tomé Domínguez(2), father of Francisco Javier Chavez ; Francisco Domínguez, father of Estefanía Domínguez Francisco Javier Chavez, father of Matiana Chavez ; Estefanía Domínguez, mother of Francisco Baca Matiana Chavez, mother of Joaquín García de Villegas ; Francisco Baca, father of María Josefa Baca On 6 February 1781 Frias forwarded the proceedings to Durango for review. He justified a dispensation based on the high degree of intermarriage in the area. A doctor of canon law, Felipe Marcos de Soto, acting in the place of the ill bishop, received the proceedings. The bishop granted the dispensation on 14 February 1781.

Marriage of Relative | Francisco Xavier was witness to marriage of Francisco Baca, part of the Dominguez de Mendoza clan in Parral, some 50 years after the clan's exodus from New Mexico. |
Military | The Archives of Parral contains a file that lists the local citizens of Nuevas Minas and Santa Barbara in 1755 who would be ready to defend against an Indian insurrection. Francisco Xavier de Chaves and his son Francisco Prudencio are listed as owners and defenders of their estate Hacienda de San Christobal. The page is water damaged and barely legible.

Name | Raised by Pedro Chavez but was an illegitimate son of Tomé Dominguez. Unlike some researchers I have placed Francisco as an illegitimate son of Tome III because Tome IV was definitely dead by 1681. Francisco de Chavez birth date is not known but he was most likely born after 1680. In the 1730 baptism record of his son Joseph Felix he went by the name Francisco Xavier Domínguez. In 1745 Parral, Francisco de Chaves was the main witness at the marriage of Francisco Baca, son of Estefania Dominguez de Mendoza - daughter of Francisco Dominguez de Mendoza, which supports the claim of a family connection to the Domínguez clan. |
Death | The following record indicates Francisco died in 1762 but other documents in Parral having his signature and his son Prudencio's signature indicate he was alive in 1764 or maybe even 1765.

Note | It is not certain which Tomé Dominguez was the father of Francisco Xavier de Chavez. It could have been Tomé III or Tomé IV. Less likely, there was another Tomé Dominguez who was on the 1707 Militia roll for Valle de San Bartolome who could have been his father. (AHMP.FC.C10.001.027 Milicia y guerra, 05/08/1707 Fondos del Parral, pg 4 ). The best guess is that Francisco's father is Tomé "El Mozo" Dominguez de Mendoza who was Maestre de Campo in New Mexico until 1684 when he moved south to Chihuahua after the Pueblo revolt. This guess is based on the information that (1) Francisco de Chaves was known to be the illegitimate son of a Tomé Dominguez who had a brother named Francisco (2) Francisco de Chavez was reared in the home of a Pedro de Chaves (3) Tomé "El Mozo" had a brother named Francisco who also came to Chihuahua (4) Tomé "El Mozo" and Pedro de Chaves were closely related in New Mexico and their families came to Chihuahua from New Mexico about the same time where they lived nearby (5) During those years (1680-1701) Tome' was newly married to Cathalina de Varela who had several children with Tomé. |
Shared note | Taken From: Santa Fe County, New Mexico Genealogy and History - Genealogy Trails Biographies Juan Bartolomé “Tomé” Mendoza II was born about 1623 in Mexico City. He was about twelve when the family emigrated to New Mexico. He was married to Catalina López Mederos about 1641. They had at least six children. He also had a relationship with an Indian woman, Ana Velásquez, while he was married, and had at least two children from her. During the 1680 Pueblo Revolt, many residents of the Río Abajo District of New Mexico fled to the home of Maestre del Campo Tomé Domínguez de Mendoza, where they were later joined by Lt. Governor Alonso García, our ancestor, leading a group of refugees. A daughter from Ana, Juana Domínguez, was the legitimate wife of our ancestor, Juan Domingo Luján. She and her children were captured during the Pueblo Revolt and kept as prisoners. Perhaps Domingo thought that they were dead at first. They were ransomed about 1692 after twelve years of captivity. By that time Domingo had taken a common-law wife, Ana María Herrera, and had children by her, one of whom is our ancestor, Francisco Xavier Herrera [abt. 1684-abt. 1755] The town of Tomé, New Mexico, emerged from Tome’s former rancho. We are not directly descended from Tome II-he is our uncle- but we are descended directly from his son-in-law Juan Domingo Luján. Tomé’s son, Tome III, died in a battle with the Pueblos in 1681. Two other sons, Juan and Diego were seriously injured by poisoned arrows. Tome II claimed to have lost thirty-eight family members in the Revolt. At Guadalupe del Paso, some citizens were considerably hostile toward Tomé II’s entire family. He was accused of moving all his hacienda goods out of New Mexico when the Revolt began in 1680, burying ploughshares and other implements on the way to lighten the wagons, when he well knew that the Santa Fe people were besieged and need of help. In 1681 the family was accused of profiteering on the misery of the exile colony. The next year, 1682, Tomé and his brother-in-law, Pedro de Cháves, got permission to depart with their families for New Spain. They never returned to New Mexico. His brother, Juan, succeeded Tomé as maestre del campo |
