| Introduction | I was born into Spanish Nobility in the province of Andalusia in Jerez de la Frontera in 1490. My father, Francisco de Vera, had come from a family of explorers who had seized control of the Canary Islands during the early fifteen hundereds, When I was a young boy. My mother also came from a long descending family of soldiers, who for personal reasonsi took her maiden name as my own. At this time, I had realized that conquering land in my family's name is one thing I would like to do with my life. |
