Bernaldo de Quirós
 
Although the Bernaldo de Quirós family of Torrelaguna claimed descent from the Quirós family of Asturias through a descendant of the marriage of Juan Bernaldo de Quirós and Beatriz Cabeza de Vaca, this claim is now considered false, with forged documentation having been used to support it and with essential records missing. The earliest named ancestor of this line is thought to have been Juan Bernaldo, 'el de la Ronda', who appears to have originated from a separate branch of the Bernaldo family.
