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.
