CEDILLO The surname Cedillo, Cedillos, Sedillo, or
Sedillos, has not been studied by Spanish genealogists or family historians. Its origins remain hidden in the remote past
at the present. In a study of the top 1,600 surnames in use today among those of Hispanic origin living in the United
States, Cedillo ranks 625th. In a survey of the largest capital cities of Latin America, the surname Cedillo was unique to
Mexico City. Family histories have been written for the Cedillos in the Dominican Republic, and New Mexico. The origins
of the surname in the United States appear to be from central Mexico for the most part. There were many Cedillo and Sedillo
in the state of Aguascalientes in the 1700-1800s. One early family in this country was that of Pedro de Cedillo, who was
a native of Querétaro, Mexico. He arrived in New Mexico about 1670. By 1680 he was living in the Río Abajo district. He declared
his age as "about seventy" in 1681, stating that he had one twenty-year-old son and eight other children. His wife was Isabel
López de García. She died before 1692 and he between 1692-1698. Their known children were Isabel, who married Juan Varela
Jaramillo in 1692, Casilda, wife of Cristóbal Jaramillo, Felipa, married to Francisco Anaya, and son Joaquín, Juan and Pedro.
Joaquín raised a large family with his wife María Varela at their home in Río Abajo. Juan married María de la Concepción Gutiérrez
at Santa Fé in 1698. Pedro was alive in 1710 but it is not known if he married.
