Family history Duque de Regla<\/h2>\n

The Dukes of Regla \u2013 From Mexico to the Spanish Grandeur<\/p>\n

The Regla family grew out of the Mexican family Romero de Terreros. Their ancestor Pedro Romero de Terreros explored the silver veins of Real del Monte in the 18th century. King Charles III elevated him to the rank of Count of Santa Mar\u00eda de Regla in 1768. With mines and the founding of Monte de Piedad, he left his descendants with influence and a social legacy.<\/p>\n

Through Pedro Ram\u00f3n, the second Count, title and possessions passed to Pedro Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda. This third Count witnessed the transition from the Viceroyalty to independent Mexico. His son Juan Nepomuceno Romero de Terreros y Villamil, born in Mexico City in 1818, united several titles. He was a Knight of the Santiago Order, a member of the Real Maestranza de Caballer\u00eda de Sevilla, and fourth Count of Regla.<\/p>\n

In 1859, Queen Isabella II granted Juan Nepomuceno the title of Duque de Regla and the title of Grandeza de Espa\u00f1a. The new duke thus linked a family history rooted in New Spain with the highest rank of Spanish nobility. Since he died without children in 1862, his niece Mar\u00eda del Refugio Romero de Terreros y Gor\u00edbar succeeded him. Her marriage to Eduardo Rinc\u00f3n-Gallardo y Rosso brought together two important Mexican families.<\/p>\n

Her son Carlos Rinc\u00f3n-Gallardo y Romero de Terreros became the third Duke. After that, the title passed to his daughter Mar\u00eda de la Concepci\u00f3n Rinc\u00f3n-Gallardo y Cortina and through her to the Fern\u00e1ndez del Valle family. Justo Fern\u00e1ndez del Valle y Rinc\u00f3n-Gallardo received the royal succession certificate in 1981; in 1996, his son Justo Fern\u00e1ndez del Valle y Cervantes became the sixth Duke.<\/p>\n

Thus, the family spans an unusual spectrum, from the silver mines of Hidalgos to Mexico\u2019s traditional houses and to the Spanish Grandeza.<\/p>\n
