Juan Morillo

Brief Biography: 
Juan Morillo was present at the 1540 muster as a footman. It is possible that the individual in the Pasajero record from Fuente del Arco (Badajoz province) is the expeditionary because just four days earlier several expeditionaries from the same town registered for licenses for New Spain. If correct, then he is the son of Juan García Morillo and María García.
