Pedro Márquez, a captain, escaped with his wife, two children, and six servants. He gave his age as thirty in 1681, saying he was married and ill in bed. He was accused of profiteering with the Chaves - Domínguez clans at the expense of the refugee colony at Guadalupe del Paso. This was natural, as his wife was a daughter of don Pedro de Chaves, with whom he left the colony in 1682. As a brother of Bernabé Márquez, he was a son of Diego Márquez and Bernardina Vázquez. Alonso Catiti, a coyote Indian leader of Santo Domingo Pueblo, was referred to as a brother of Pedro. This family, with its kindred Chaves and Domínguez families, did not return with the Reconquest.
