Alonso Rodríguez Parra was not present at the 1540 muster. In 1575 Alonso's son Juan presented his méritos y servicios in which he stated all the things his father had done on the Expedition and that his father was a member of Diego López's company and therefore served as a horseman. It would appear from his son's statements that Alonso lived in Chiametla after the Expedition and was probably dead by the date of the document.
