• Background Information: ²⁵²
Francisco Jurado de Gracia and his wife Lucía Varela de Losada were mentioned in 1695 as natives and residents of the Real de San Lorenzo, when their daughter, Maria, married Juan Fernández de la Pedrera. María, however, declared that she had been born at El Bosque in the jurisdiction of Sandía. From this it appears as though her father, a son of Pedro Jurado de Gracia, had come to New Mexico where he married a Varela girl, then returned to Guadalupe del Paso after Maria's birth. He is most likely the Francisco Jurado de Gracia, married, who signed up with the New Mexico soldiers at Guadalupe del Paso in 1681. Both he and Lucía were members of the Confraternity of La Conquistadora.
