doña María Cortés de Moteuczoma, mestiza, was a daughter of don Hernando Cortés and doña Isabel de Moteuczoma Tecuichpochtzin (and therefore the granddaughter of Motecuzoma Xocoyotl); doña María was also given by Cortés to be the wife of a Spaniard, Juan de Tolosa, a miner in Zacatlan (all according to don Fernando de Alvarado Tezozomoctzin, and recounted by Chimalpahin); such a genealogy links pre-contact with Spanish colonial times (central Mexico, seventeenth century)
