Treviño: Last Names of Nuevo Leon
Last Names of Nuevo Leon

This 510-page book contains six generations of descendants of Diego de Treviño and Beatriz de Quintanilla.

Their children were born in the 1550’s through the 1570’s in Mexico City and other regions of Mexico. Diego is considered to be the progenitor of the Treviño last name in Nuevo Leon, Tamaulipas, and Texas.

To this date the parents of Beatriz de Quintanilla are unknown to me.

I do not know much about the life of Diego de Treviño but it is estimated that he was born about 1535 in Spain and that he married Beatriz de Quintanilla in about 1557 in Mexico City.

This book is about six generations of their descendants and covers the time period of the 1500s through the 1700s. It is 510 pages and is full of genealogical information that includes sources for the facts listed.

Keep in mind, this book as all my others are only tools to help you build your tree. Once you discover a death date, baptism date, and or marriage date get a copy of the original. It is very rewarding to do so and you will learn more details about your ancestors.

Also this book does not include every descendant of theirs since that is impossible, it only includes the ones that I have identified through documents, reliable published, and unpublished works.

  1. “I do not know much about the life of Diego de Treviño but it is estimated that he was born about 1535 in Spain and that he married Beatriz de Quintanilla in about 1757 in Mexico City.” Moises, this needs correction.

  2. I’m so pleased to see that this book contains this amount of information, ( I.e., names, dates, locations backed up by proof domentation records, etc. , but I’m also particularly interested in other supportive information that is of lacking in the process of my search.
    Perhaps I’m not looking in the right places.
    Im referring to my indigenous past.
    Indigenous references documents written in both languages – for náhuatl/Spanish, etc.?
    Im curious does this book contain such information.

    1. It does not since I have not come across any records of indigenous peoples. The ones I have found is because the Spanish priests wrote that they were Indian.
