 This soldier, or either of the two who precede, may be the same
 Alonso Gutierrez de Cardona, of whom more information is
 available because he testified in the probanza of Gonzalo Silvestre.
 By his own declarations in Badajoz in 1558, we know that he was
 living there in his forty-fourth year. He states he was a captain in
 the Florida expedition and, along with the survivors, he continued
 to Mexico. There he remained for some time, where he saw
 Silvestre depart for Peru. He signed his declaration.65

 Gutierrez de Cordoba, Alonso. After Hemando Ponce de
Leon studied the background of witnesses presented by Isabel de
Bobadilla in their law suit, he vetoed the testimony of this
conquistador from Badajoz. He believed that Gutierrez was partial
to Isabel because he had been a part of her deceased husband's
expedition to Florida.66 The possibility exists that this Gutierrez de
Cordoba could be the same Alonso Gutierrez listed immediately
above.
