Family history Marqués de San Miguel de Aguayo

Die Markgrafen von San Miguel de Aguayo – Eine Familie an der Nordgrenze Neuspaniens

The roots of the house of San Miguel de Aguayo lay in northern Mexican possessions that had emerged around Parras and Patos since the late 16th century. Agriculture, livestock breeding, and mining made these estates a significant source of wealth. Agustín de Echeverz y Subiza, an officer and governor of Nuevo León, became the first Marqués de San Miguel de Aguayo.

Seine Tochter und Erbin Ignacia Javiera de Echeverz heiratete José de Azlor y Virto de Vera aus aragonesischem Adel. Dadurch wurde José zweiter Marqués. Das Paar kam 1712 nach Mexiko und lebte auf der Hacienda Patos, deren Ländereien einen beträchtlichen Teil Coahuilas umfassten. Als französische Aktivitäten Spaniens Anspruch auf Texas herausforderten, bot José an, eine Expedition selbst zu finanzieren.

1719 wurde er Gouverneur und Generalkapitän von Coahuila und Texas. Mit Männern sowie Pferde-, Rinder- und Schafherden zog er 1721 nach Norden. Er ließ Missionen wiederbesetzen, stärkte Presidios und erreichte, dass Spaniens Stellung in Texas gesichert blieb. Aus einem Presidio entwickelte sich Los Adaes; die Mission San José y San Miguel de Aguayo in San Antonio trägt seinen Namen. 1724 ernannte ihn der König zum Feldmarschall.

Auch Ignacia Javiers Tochter María Ignacia de Azlor setzte einen besonderen Akzent. Sie verwendete ihr Vermögen für die Bildung von Mädchen und gründete in Mexiko-Stadt das Kolleg der Compañía de María, das Unterricht unabhängig von Herkunft und Wohlstand anbot.

Über die Familien Echeverz und Valdivielso gingen Titel und Güter an weitere Generationen. Schulden und schwierige Verwaltungen ließen den einst riesigen Besitz bis zur Zahlungsunfähigkeit Pedro Ignacio de Echeverz’ 1815 schrumpfen. Die Familie blieb dennoch genealogisch präsent. Missionen, Ortsnamen und Bildungsstiftungen erzählen bis heute von ihrem prägenden Wirken zwischen Mexiko und Texas.
