This account found in a book on JSTOR states that Alonso de Funces was killed by Masame indians in an uprising at their hacienda.
pg 121 " ... that in June 1632 there was an uprising of Masames Indians, and the Toboso Indians helped to repress it. On November 14 a parade of 77 Tobosos and some Nonojes entered the Real del Parral and brought with them nine Masame women and their children. At a previous encounter the Tobosos had killed 21 Masames and brought the women and 16 scalps with them, having left the rest because they were too old. The hair was displayed on posts in the Plaza del Real.
The Masame Indians said that Diego Ximénez de Funes, owner of the Santa Ana ranch and silver foundry (two leagues from the town of San Buenaventura de Atotonilco) had not paid the wages owed to the Indians who worked the land, and this was the cause of the rebellion. He (Diego de Funes) was taken prisoner by the authorities, but he proved that he was not guilty and regained his freedom with the revelation that he "had an account book, which was reviewed by the justice of the province every four months, in which there was an account for the Indians who served the hacienda and a record of the pay that had been made to them." The Masame Indians were sentenced to serve four years in houses of neighbors of Parra, receiving their salary.
On June 27, 1632, Diego Ximénez de Funes left Santa Ana to go to Mass in the town of San Buenaventura de Atotonilco, two leagues away. In the house he left his son Alonso de Funes de Villanueva, and the Spaniard Jacinto Rodríguez. It was then that the Masames had risen, killing the son Alonso and burning the door and the window of the house.
