Marriage and Descendants

Ana was married Rodrigo de Mendoza, her paternal uncle by her father, Íñigo López de Mendoza y Mendoza so as to avoid any problems in the succession of the Dukedom. The couple had two girls that survived childhood:

  • Luisa de Mendoza, married the second son of the Duke of Lerma, Francisco Gómez de Sandoval, 1st Duke of Lerma. Their son Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar Gómez de Sandoval y Mendoza became the next Duke of the Infantado.
  • María de Mendoza, married García Álvarez de Toledo, 6th Marquis of Villafranca and Duke of Fernandina. No issue.

After being widowed in 1587, she remarried in 1594 with Juan Hurtado de Mendoza y Mendoza (155-1624), the Mayordomo Mayor of Philip III of Spain and Philip IV of Spain and son of Íñigo López de Mendoza y Mendoza, 3rd Marques of Mondéjar.

gollark: ```I can’t even say what’s wrong with PHP, because— okay. Imagine youhave uh, a toolbox. A set of tools. Looks okay, standard stuff inthere.You pull out a screwdriver, and you see it’s one of those weirdtri-headed things. Okay, well, that’s not very useful to you, butyou guess it comes in handy sometimes.You pull out the hammer, but to your dismay, it has the claw part onboth sides. Still serviceable though, I mean, you can hit nails withthe middle of the head holding it sideways.You pull out the pliers, but they don’t have those serratedsurfaces; it’s flat and smooth. That’s less useful, but it stillturns bolts well enough, so whatever.And on you go. Everything in the box is kind of weird and quirky,but maybe not enough to make it completely worthless. And there’s noclear problem with the set as a whole; it still has all the tools.Now imagine you meet millions of carpenters using this toolbox whotell you “well hey what’s the problem with these tools? They’re allI’ve ever used and they work fine!” And the carpenters show you thehouses they’ve built, where every room is a pentagon and the roof isupside-down. And you knock on the front door and it just collapsesinwards and they all yell at you for breaking their door.That’s what’s wrong with PHP.```From the fractal of bad design article.
gollark: Are you suggesting Assembly is fine for webapps too?
gollark: I don't really believe that.]
gollark: The "wrong"ness of opinions, I guess, depends if your disagreement is based on aesthetic preference differences, or wrong facts/logic.
gollark: Hey, if you think the argument of popularity is fine applied to PHP, I can apply it to opinions.
