Blas Griego escaped the massacre of 1680 with seventeen persons in his family, made up of wife, children, and servants. In 1681 he was described as a native of New Mexico, thirty-four to thirty-seven years old, married, tall and thin, swarthy, with black hair and beard. As late as 1703, he and his sister Juana, "La Clériga," had not returned to Santa Fé from Guadalupe del Paso. He was an officer of the Confraternity of La Conquistadora in 1685.

Blas married Inez Romero de Pedraza, daughter of Matías Romero and Isabel de Pedraza. (Inez Romero de Pedraza was born about 1630.)
