In 1680 he would have been about eleven years old when his family fled Santa Fe during the Publeo Revolt. They settled in El Paso del Norte where Pedro de Madrid married Isabel de la Serna in 1689. In 1695 a Pedro Madrid of El Paso del Norte testified that he had illicit relations with Antonia Lopez and that he was the first cousin of Cristobal de Gamboa.
