"Count of Revillagigedo"
[edit]What exactly was he count of? Revillagigedo Islands seem to have been named after his son (?) Juan Vicente de Güemes Padilla Horcasitas y Aguayo, 2nd Count of Revillagigedo, and Revillagigedo Island is also named after him. Revilla Gigedo leads nowhere useful. I found this on google, which I can't interpretate since I know no Spanish, but it seems to have something to do with the city/region Gijón. Can anyone shed any light over this mystery? Also, where there ever more than two counts of this area? /Grillo 01:20, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
horcasitas history-
[edit]I am a direct descendant of these gentlemen. I would like to find out more about them. I have copies of their portraits which were handed down to me through the years.70.149.184.147 (talk) 15:29, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
