I found information on a Jauregui family of Seville while reading the book "Linajudos and Conversos in Seville" by Ruth Pike. I think it is possible this family from Seville has a connection to the one mentioned on Nuestros Ranchos. Miguel Martinez de Jauregui was a Northerner from Najera, Logrono (his father from Vergara) who migrated to Seville in the sixteenth century to engage in trade with the New World. He made a fortune shipping iron to America, which was a typical activity of Basque merchants. He also owned a vessel in the carrera de Indias. The woman he married, Isabel Hurtado de la Sal, was the daughter of one of the richest converso businessmen in Seville (converso meaning the family had converted from Judaism to Catholicism). Typically, Old Christians and conversos did not mix, but if the families were wealthy and had business ties, they did.
Because Jauregui did not marry an Old Christian, the Jaureguis became targets of rumors and unfavorable treatment. There was many pruebas (investigations related to the family's background) going on against the family that ended in around1639. Linajudos, professional genealogists who expected bribes, conspired against them.
There were several children but only three names are known. One was a poet name Juan de Jauregui, another was named Lucas de Jauregui. There was also a son named Francisco who was involved in a duel in 1614 because somebody called him a converso publicly. The wounded combatants became determined to get revenge against the family.
Bill Figueroa posted that the earliest Jauregui in our area was named Juan Francisco and he married in Nochistlan, Zacatecas in 1662. He was from Guipuzcoa, Spain. Has anybody seen that marriage entry and were Juan Francisco's parents identified? With the family from Seville being involved in exportation of merchandise to the New World, there might be a connection.
If anybody wants more details on the Jauregui family of Seville, just e-mail me.

Jaurigui
Alice,
I have been trying to find someone with the Jaurigui name and was wondering if you might have a connection that I haven't found.
My father-in-law Henry Michael Ortega's father was Jose Manuel Jauriqui y Ortega Sanchez. He immigrated from Mexico City to New York in approximately 1933. He changed his name and used aliases but I was able to find his christening record from 30 August 1904 and says he was born 30 July 1904. In the Mexico, Distrito Federal, Parroquia de Santa Ana records. His father is listed as Crescencio Jauriqui y Ortega and his mother as Enriqueta Sanchez.
I was not able to find anything prior to them so I don't know if they come from somewhere other than Mexico City. Could Crescencio Jauriqui y Ortega come from your Jauriqui line that you are researching?
Thanks for any help.

That is superinteresting. My family name is Legaspi. My grandfather was Legaspi Jauregui. The Legazpi name came to Nochistlan in the early 1600s. When it first appeared in Tlaxcala w Miguel Lopez de Legazpi who was born in Zumarraga within the Province of Guipuzcoa. The reason Basques were active in the military and subsequent exploration of the world for imperial Spain was because of the iron works and ship building. I would like to know more about your work, Alice.

Jauregui Family of Seville - Transatlantic Traders
I have been reading up on Capitanes and I saw some information on Miguel Lopez de Legaspi. I was interested in the ones that came to Zacatecas, Mexico such as Francisco de Ibarra who was also from the Basque region from Guipuzcoa. I am impressed that this a painting or drawing exists of what he looks like:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francisco_de_Ibarra
Another Capitan is Andres de Urdaneta who is also from Guipuzcoa, Basque, Spain and it includes a painting of him:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andr%C3%A9s_de_Urdaneta
Jauregui Family of
I will check on those two Capitanes. I do have tons of information on
Miguel Lopez de Legazpi. My family and i, have visited Zumarraga where
there is a statue of him. We have also visited his home which is now a
conservatory of music. There is a festival in Barra de Navidad in November
which celebrates the sailing to the Philippines. Aside for Lopez de Legazpi
being the first Escribano for Mexico City and founder of the Casa de La
Moneda, he became the first governor of the Philippines. We are tracing
back and bridging some genealogy of various Legazpi's that came to
Nochistlan and its general neighboring . We have been able to confirm
through the late 1600s and early 1700s. The Legazpis came to the Nueva
Galicia, either around 1606 or mid 1600s.

The marriage record is at
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1-15188-351-83
There were many families with the surname Jáuregui. We shouldn't be jumping
to conclusions that it is the same family just because there is a surname
in common. There needs to be more substantial evidence.

I found information on a Jauregui family of Seville while reading the book "Linajudos and Conversos in Seville" by Ruth Pike.
