Juan de Vitoria Carvajal's wife was Isabel Holguín, daughter of Juan López Holguín and Catalina de Villanueva, and their three known sons were, in all likelihood, Agustín, Gerónimo, and Felis. A daughter, whose name is not known, was the wife of Don Fernando Durán y Chaves. Most likely another daughter was Magdalena, wife of Domingo González.

Agustín de Carvajal was one of the fourteen men ordered executed for sedition by Governor Pacheco in 1643, but he escaped the sentence with his Chaves brother-in-law and the others. He is mentioned in 1660 as being thirty years old and residing in the jurisdiction of Galisteo. He had lost his first wife, María Márquez, and was now accused of having married a close relative, Estefania Enríquez, nineteen years old. Agustín was mentioned as a brother-in-law of Don Fernando Durán y Chaves and a brother of Gerónimo de Carvajal. The two brothers had married two Márquez sisters.

Widowed again, Agustín had taken a third wife prior to 1680. She was Damiana Domínguez de Mendoza, widow of Álvaro de Paredes and daughter of old Tomé Domínguez. He was sixty in April of that year, and Damiana was fifty. With them was doña Ana de Carvajal, fifty-sixyears old, perhaps the widow of don Fernando Durán y Chaves. That following August both Agustín and Damiana, with a grown daughter and "another woman" (Ana?), were massacred by the Santo Domingo Indians at their Angostura home. Two weeks later their bodies were found by the fleeing refugees of Santa Fe, who found no signs of his sons or the rest of the family.
