Ventura de la GARZA (#4435)

 
                 

Birth Record:    Born circa 1705 , probably in Monterrey.

Death Record:    He died in 1730 of unknown causes. I suspect
                 he was living in Sabinas, N.L. at the time.

Life Facts:      His parents are unknown.  Although I am confident
                 his father is Francisco de la Garza, the son of
                 Francisco de la Garza Falcon. Garza Falcon is the
                 brother of Leonor de la Garza - the matriarch of the
                 Serna y Alacon clan of Monterrey.

                 He married Margarita Quiteria de la Serna (#4434).
                 My best quess is that they were married between
                 1726 and 1730.

                 There were no children born of this marriage that I
                 know of.
