Name

According to Spanish WP article the A has an accent: Juan Ábalos de Mendoza. "Juan Ruiz de Ocaña es el fundador de una extensa familia, uno de cuyos descendientes pudo haber sido el general Bartolomé Mitre. Había casado en Asunción con Bernardina Guerra, hija del capitán Juan de Guerra y de Ana de Sepúlveda. Viuda, Bernardina casó con Juan Ábalos de Mendoza. Entre otros hijos el matrimonio tuvo a quien fue capitán, alcalde y segunda cabeza de encomienda, Diego Ruiz de Ocaña, y a Catalina de Ocaña, quien casó con el hijo de su padrastro, Juan Ábalos de Mendoza. Estos últimos fueron los padres de Juan, quien dejó de lado su apellido paterno para adoptar el materno, Ruiz de Ocaña, y asumir la tercera cabeza de encomienda de su abuelo. Era común por entonces que tanto las encomiendas como los adelantazgos y otros privilegios, se extendiesen por tres vidas.^[1]"--Johnsoniensis (talk) 13:19, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Does he belong in Spanish military personnel?

Does he belong in Spanish military personnel? I would say in general "Spanish" refers to people in Spain. He was never in Spain, but in the Viceroyalty of Peru in the Spanish Empire. I can see an argument for using "Spainish military personnel" to mean "Personnel of the Spanish military". I think though if we want to use it to mean the latter we should name it such.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:34, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
