Catalina de la ALARCON (#mex501)
Birth Record: Born circa 1590, in unknown locale, most likely Mexico City
or Europe.
Death Record: Unknown date or locale but most likely in Mexico City.
Life Facts: It is unknow at this time (21 Oct. 1999) who her parents
were. She married Francisco de la Serna y Alarcon before
1612. It is possible that he was a cousin or other
relation. They had at least one child, Nicolas de la
Serna y Alarcon (#960) who moved Nuevo Leon and helped
establish Monterrey.
Francisco, her husband, is the oldest Serna record that
I have located.
