a Spanish surname carried by a mestizo, Gabriel de Villafuerte, who was the son of an indigenous noblewoman named doña Juana (daughter of Huehue Chicome Xochitzin) and a Spanish captain and conqueror who came to Mexico in the company of Hernando Cortés, Juan Rodríguez de Villafuerte; Gabriel's grandfather Huehue Chicome Xochitzin was the son of Cacamatzin tlacochcalcatl, who was the son of Tlilpotonqui cihuacoatl, who was the son (apparently) of Tlacaeleltzin; such a genealogy links pre-contact with Spanish colonial times
