Antonia González de Vitoria was a sister of Diego González Lobón and an aunt of a Pedro de Montoya. Her full name also links her with her mother's Carvajal family. A native of Santa Fe, she was an important witness concerning gubernatorial scandals in 1664, when she was forty-eight years old and a widow.
