Facts and Events
1. Arived in New Mexico in 1649.
2. By 1661, he was an ecomendero and regidor (town councilman) of the Villa de Santa Fe. He resided near Zia Pueblo, some 40 miles from Santa Fe. In January, the governor ordered him, under pain of death, to appear in Santa Fe within 10 days to answer why he did not maintain a house there. Andres, his wife, and children ranging in age from 4 months to 9 years, made the trip to Santa Fe during extreme weather, suffering terrible privation.

Page numbers listed for this source are the page numbers of my printouts of Family Group Sheets from the GNMPD; the GNMPD does not display Individual Numbers or page numbers. The printouts contain the names of many additional siblings which have not yet been added to the Banta Family File accessed by the Reunion software program. Because there are many contributors to the GNMPD, there are variant spellings of some names. Where it seemed reasonable to do so, I have used a consistent form of the family name across generations, even if it differs slightly from that found in the database. Since the GNMPD is constantly being updated it needs to be reviewed periodically. (Last reviewed 6/2006.)).
