Notes for MARQUES JUAN-ANTONIO DE URRUTIA-Y-ARANA:

The 2nd Marques de la Villa del Villar del Aguila.

Juan emigr aproximadamente en 1687 desde Ciudad de México, México.

BAUTISMO INFANTIL Fue bautizado por el P. D. Luis Antonio de Lasarte en el santuario de Nuestra Señora de la Encina, siendo sus padrinos el Sr. D. Antonio de Lujatea y D. Jacinta de Largacha

BIOGRAFÍA: Llegó a México en 1687.Habiendo ocupado puestos muy importantes, tuvo notable

intervención en el tumulto y rebelión de los indígenas en la ciudad de México en 1692. Dejó tres legados de $ 5,000 cada uno para sus tres hijas expósitas, Rita, Maricela y Ana Gertrudis de Urrutia y Guerrero, para el caso que fueron religiosas y tres mil fueron casadas. Caballero de la Orden de Alcantara. Existe la leyenda de amorios con una monja sobrina de su mujer. Cuenta la Leyenda que el Marqués se enamoró de una monja clarisa, la cual por la lealtad a su vocación no acepto relación alguna con él, pidiéndole solamente que construyera el ahora majestuoso Acueducto para conducir el agua a la ciudad y que hiciera también la casa más hermosa de Querétaro, la cual se ha restaurado cuidadosamente descubriendo las pinturas originales decorativas de sus muros.

La historia que se encuentra detras de uno de los acueductos más importantes del mundo, tiene solo una razón de ser: El amor entre un hombre y una mujer. Esta es la historia del Marques de la Villa del Villar del Aguila y una de las monjas capuchinas más hermosas de ese momento llamada Sor Marcela.

Juan Antonio de Urrutia y Arana, Caballero de la Orden de Alcantara. Media cerca de 1,90 metros, era fuerte y con grandes habilidades para la ingenieria hidráulica. Sor Marcela, sobrina de Paula Guerrero Dávila, era una hermosa dama, de una familia acomodada y capaz de inspirar un gran sentimiento de ayuda al prójimo. El convenio de amor era el siguiente: Construir un acueducto para traer agua a Querétaro a cambio de un amor de entendimiento y lleno de pureza. Hacia 1720, cuando en Querétaro la gente sufria la contaminación de los rios y se empezó a enfermar hasta morir, Juan Antonio de Urrutia y Arana, Marqués de la Villa del Villar del Aguila, quién gozaba de gran riqueza debido a su matrimonio con Paula Guerrero Dávila, decide construir un acueducto para traer agua a la ciudad, y de esta manera mitigar las enfermedades intestinales que sufrian en esos momentos.

Dice la historia que este marqués decidió construirlo por la petición de una monja de la que él estaba

enamorado. Ella se llamaba Sor Marcela, de la orden de las hermanas Capuchinas, del convento de las

Capuchinas de San Jose de Gracia.

El amor entre Sor Marcela y el marqués debio de ser un amor muy fuerte, un amor de entendimiento, era algo muy agradable para la pareja, como para acordar construir tan majestuosa obra arquitectonica.

FALLECIMIENTO: El Marqués dejó toda su fortuna para obras de beneficio social a muchas comunidades religiosas y a sus servidores. Después de una vida verdaderamente ejemplar, murió este notable hombre en la ciudad de México el 29 de agosto de 1743. Se cree que sus cenizas reposan en el Convento de Santo Domingo, aunque también pueden estar en San Diego, sugún dejó dispuesto en su testamento.

The city of Queretaro, capital of the state by the same name, traces its roots to the "Camino de Plata" - the highway marked in the mid-1500's to carry the ore from the vast silver mines in Zacatecas to Mexico City. As the city grew as a trading center it also became the nucleus of an important agricultural area. Don Juan Antonio de Urrutia y Arana financed the aqueduct built in 1726 and the construction of many beautiful colonial buildings that still stand including convents and churches.

In Mexico City, he signed his last will and testament on November 18, 1742. On his will he states that he and his wife were not able to have children.

Note: Children listed for this couple may ALL be adopted.

Notes for GOVERNOR JOSEPH-ANTONIO FERNANDEZ-DE-JAUREGUI-Y-URRUTIA:

BIOGRAFÍA: Gobernador y capitan general de Nuevo León, México, en 1731 - 1740.

Gobernador de Texas en 1737 - 1738

From 1732 to 1741 Don Joseph Antonio Fernández de Jáuregui Urrutia served as governor of Nuevo León. In 1735 he wrote a report to the viceroy on conditions in his province. The document focused on the need to curb the hostile natives who inhabited the adjacent coastal region later incorporated into the province of Nuevo Santander. Although Fernández failed to offer a comprehensive plan for conquering the coastal strip, his report initiated a series of efforts to solve problems stemming from the region's hostile natives. When the viceroy failed to respond, Fernández forwarded his report with a map and supporting documents to the Crown, but King Felipe V took little notice. On July 11, 1737, the Nuevo León governor was given an additional assignment as governor extraordinary and visitador of Texas; he was to investigate the administration of ousted Texas governor Carlos Benites Franquis de Lugo.Not until 1738 was he able to renew his appeal on behalf of Nuevo León settlers. In the meantime, other plans, largely self-serving, emerged, leading ultimately to the choice of José de Escandón to subdue and colonize the Costa del Seno Mexicano (Gulf of Mexico Coast). Upon completion of the Franquis investigation, Fernández returned to Monterrey to serve out his term as Nuevo León governor. Prudencio de Orobio y Basterra was named governor ad interim of Texas.

(Note:He was a nephew to Don Juan Antonio de Urrutia y Arana, The 2nd Marqués del Villar del Aguila).
