The family had arrived from Tucuman, being escorted in the trip by mercenaries hired by the same Ñuño Fernández Lobo.[4]
Ñuño Fernández Lobo established his residence permanently in Buenos Aires, serving as Captain of militia in the El Presidio de Buenos Aires.[5] He received land grants, and ordered to build a farm in the area Río de Las Conchas (Buenos Aires Province).[6]
