Pedro Lopez de Haro

5 reacties

Helene Berk

I believe my 12th great grandfather was Pedro Lopez de Haro (I have records up to my 11th, Pieter Lopes de Haro who was married to Catharine van den Berge - of Leuven). I have found a story where the older Pedro/Peter participated in defending Louvain during the "seige of Louvain" 1539-1542.

(pp 625 and 682)
I am wondering where I might try to find additional information -- any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    He seems to be an interesting ancestor/character. I also have found this information

    erfgoedleiden.nl/collecties/archieven/archievenoverzicht/scans/0501/23.3.129/start/0/limit/10/highlight/1 (opent in een nieuw tabblad)

    somewhere I read (on an ancestory site, with no sources sited) that he was part of the entourage (which I read was about 1000 people) who accompanied Isabella of Austria went to Denmark to marry Christian II. But do not know if that merits a diploma of nobility, Have not had any success trying to learn any more. (another genealogical websits says Christian and Isabella stayed at Pedro's wifes home during some of their time in exile. Again any pointers for what to seek next are appreciated.

    Have you tried searching here: agatha.arch.be/search/analyses/ (opent in een nieuw tabblad)

    It's where you can search indexed data in Belgium. I just tried it to see if something came up. When I entered "Lopez de Haro", I found the following:

    Type of record Funeral certificates
    Project: Church registers - Funeral certificates - Ghent
    Location: Gent
    Parish: Spanjaardenkasteel
    Description: Begrafenissen
    Remarks: Spanjaardenkasteel Register = 306, [798]
    Date of record: 13/10/1612

    Persons mentioned
    Deceased
    First name and name: Pedro Lopez De Haro
    Date of death: 13/10/1612
    Remarks: luitenant hij was reeds in het Kasteel ten tijde van kastelein Augustin de Herrero

    Translation of the remarks:
    - lieutenant he was already at the Castle at the time of castle guardian Augustin de Herrero.

    It's not much, and maybe you have already seen this, but it does tell you a little bit about him. They are referring to the castle as a "Spaniards' Castle".

    I have seen that and the original references. Some of the information makes sense, but some of it does not really fit timelines. I will keep plodding along.
