4 L u c e r o . w w w . l u c e r i t o . n e t A p r i l 2 8 , 2 0 0 9 My great great grandmother Mar a DOLORES QUINTANA was born about 1846 in Tesuque, New M xico. She came with the priests from Tesuque to Pe asco as a cook. Her children were baptized and/or married at La Misi n de San Lorenzo de Picuries and/or La Iglesia Cat lica de San Antonio de Pe asco and identified as "hijos naturales." Picuries and Pe asco are in Taos County, New M xico. According to my mother, MARIA DOLORES was a mistress of four men.

5 She was kidnapped, rescued and physically mutilated. According to my cousins descended from her daughter, Mar a Antonia, Mar a DOLORES was raped by an Apache. Two possible fathers of her children are a Roybal from Rio Lucio and an attorney named S nchez from Las Vegas, New M xico. The fathers of her children have not been identified through any records or FAMILY stories. The known children of MARIA DOLORES QUINTANA are: Antonio abt 1864] Jose Seberiano [1864]; MARIA Antonia [1865-1924]; Juan Estevan [1867-1952]; MARIA Ramona [1870-1945]; MARIA Rumalda [1873-1946]; MARIA Trinea [1876]; Agapito [1880-1958].

6 In the 1910 Pe asco Census, MARIA DOLORES was listed as having 8 children, 5 living. The 1885 Census also listed a son Antonio age 21. Five of her children lived past 1910: MARIA Antonia, Juan Estevan, MARIA Ramona, MARIA Rumalda & Agapito. This means that Jose Seberiano, MARIA Trinea and Antonio died before 1910. Her son Juan Estevan QUINTANA and her daughter Mar a Rumalda QUINTANA are both my great grandparents. Mar a Rumalda was part Cherokee. Ramona was given away to a FAMILY [Cordova or Cisneros] in Llano. Agapito moved to Utah to get away from the FAMILY .

7 Mar a DOLORES owned property in Pe asco across the road from Pe asco High School near the Picuries Reservation. The Santa Barbara Land Grant and the Trampas Land Grant boundaries are very close. Miguel QUINTANA [unknown relationship] and Agapito QUINTANA [son] owned land next to hers in Pe asco. Either Ramona [daughter] or Rumalda [daughter] owned land by the Llano Cuchillo. I suspect Mar a DOLORES was a full blooded Indian. Mom told me that Mar a DOLORES and her grandaughter Mar a Guadalupe Martinez would go up into the montes [forests] above Llano to visit the Apaches.

8 Armando Martinez told me that Mar a DOLORES and Rumalda used to go up to upper Llano to visit the Apaches. Liz Varela told me that her grandfather [Alfonso Ortiz, an apache, married to a grand daughter of MARIA DOLORES ] used to go to the Apache Canyon near Chamisal for special occasions. Mom told me that Geronimo [famous Apache] is our t o and has the same features as Mar a DOLORES . When the priest baptized my great grandmother Mar a Rumalda, he announced Hoy bautize una india. However no note was made on her baptism record.

9 Juan Estevan was tall and big. He liked to race his red horse. Armando Martinez [owner of the Pe asco Dance Hall] told me Juan Estavan heard about a horse race in Pe asco. Juan Estevan came on horsback, left his horse about a mile from Pe aco, and came to see who was racing. Juan Estevan would return home to Llano from the Rodarte Bar asleep on his horse. Juan Estevan QUINTANA was a US Marshall. He delivered the Trampas Lumber Company vs Juan B Ortega et al Lawsuit to Juan B Ortega in Llano. One time my Aunt Daisy heard a noise outside the house in Llano to see that her Uncle Juan was standing with his gun over one man he had captured.

L u c e r o . w w w . l u c e r i t o . n e t A p r i l 2 8 , 2 0 0 9 Benito Roybal [worked at Pe asco Bar], who looks like Juan Estevan QUINTANA , is the son of Jos Tomas Roybal and Mar a Antonia de la Cruz Martin. His brother, Francisco Roybal, married Juan Estevan's sister Mar a Antonia QUINTANA . Mom had said that Juan Estevan QUINTANA 's father was probably Roybal, maybe Tomas Roybal. Armando Martinez from the Penasco Dance Hall gave Mom the picture of Mar a DOLORES and Mar a Rumalda QUINTANA .
