Thanks. I wish I had jotted down sources and other bits of info that I encountered when I first started researching.

I have the same information as Armando courtesy of the Octavio Paz book, Sor Juana, pg. 64-65. Father of Sor Juana: Pedro Manuel De Asbaje y Vargas, “a Basque…and nothing else known about him.” The father is an enigma and a source of great speculation by Octavio Paz with respect to the character of Sor Juana, as I recall. The “criolla” mother: Dona Isabel Ramirez de Santillana. The origins of Isabel per Paz agree with Armando.

I don’t recall any reference to Los Altos and Sor Juana. I took a quick look at the Paz book again and I see no references to that area but I could be wrong. There is nothing in the index.
