1. Came to New Mexico sometime before 1622.

2. Left New Mexico in 1626 to be tried in Mexico City for also having a wife in the Canary Islands. Because he voluntarily admitted the bigamy and had a good reputation as an encomendero in New Mexico, he was sentenced only to return to Tenerife. He is believed to have done so.

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.)).
