una familia Mas Noble y Antigua
A Preliminary Study of the Asturian Ancestry of Capitán Francisco Montes Vigil of New Mexico
Dr. Brent Alexander Cruz, Ph.D., speaks about how he broke the genealogical brick wall of Capitan Francisco Montes Vigil (born 1666) extending his ancestry to great historical figures such as William I, King of England, Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar, better known as "El Cid", Charlemagne and many other notables of history. The book "Una Familia Mas Noble y Antqua" has genealogy charts with extensive sources and a bibliography of where he did his research.
