Editorial reviewA practical starting point whose main value is the path it opens into stronger specialist and primary sources. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1644, 1712, 1700, 1709—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1644-01-01. The account is most persuasive where Francisco, Ibáñez and Peralta can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as spanish governor and general. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Mar 16, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q434250. VIAF identifies the subject as 273145857882923020670. None of the 2 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1644, 1712, 1700 and 1709.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
