In the book "Breve Historia de Nuevo Leon", Author: Israel Cavazos Garza pp.21 says about mines discovered by captain Alberto del Canto in 1577, an area they called San Gregorio (Today: Cerralvo) he lived in Zacatecas, Mexico but was born in The Azores Islands. First settlers came from Saltillo, Coahuila; Mazapil, Zacatecas; and other southern towns. In 1596 Monterrey City was founded. We also found people from San Luis Potosi, Queretaro, Mexico City, Puebla; and even migration of Tlaxcalan indians.
Unfortunately we only can find church records "Iglesia Catolica, San Gregorio Magno (Cerralvo, Nuevo Leon)" from 1761 and later.
