Quirina Dominguez wasn't a daughter of Doña Josefa Ortiz de Dominguez. The Corregidoras children were: Ignacia, José María, Mariano, Dolores, Miguel, Juana, Micaela, another Miguel, a second Dolores, Manuela, María Ana, Luis, Magdalena, and Camila.
Quirina was the daughter of Don Quirino Domínguez Ulloa, substitute governor of Chiapas in 1832, and his wife Rosalia Román Villatoro. Thus she was an aunt of famous doctor Belisario Dominguez, senator and politican, killed in 1913 at the National Congress by Victoriano Huerta's army. Doctor Belisario's father was Don Cleofas Dominguez Román, one of Quirina's brothers. The others were Domingo, Vicente, Gregorio, Nicolás, Primitivo, Pantaleón, and Gregoria.
They were an important family in Comitán, Chiapas, with no relationship with Don Miguel Dominguez family, the corregidora's husband.

Seems this post is old - so I don't know who will get this but...
My grandmother put together her own ancestry book. In it I seem to be related to Josefa Ortiz de Dominguez through her grandaughter Quirina Dominguez de Mackenney.
Our story is that Quirina is the grandaughter of Josepha, she married James George Armstrong Mackenney in 1837 (doctor from Virginia). They had Adelaide Mackenney (daughter), Adelaide married Dr. Gideon Auson Hawley. Gideon and Adelaide had my great grandmother Ester Hawley, etc. etc. until me.

So my question would be was Quirina Dominguez de Mackenney related to Josefa Ortiz de Dominguez? Was she in fact a grandaughter of Josepha?

Surnames: Dominguez Hawley
Yes, that was the story I heard, too. My great grandfather was Ester's brother James Hawley. Turns out, though, that as this thread states, we're not descended from Josephina after all. Quirina's Dominguez family was from Comitan (at one time actually named Comitan de Dominguez after our ancestors), whereas Josephina married in the the Mexico City Dominguez family. I'll be updating the tree I created and making it public.

re: Dr. James Mackenney, there was a section written about him in a mid-19th century travelog I found on Google books called The Man Who Found the Maya: John Lloyd Stephens. Locally known as Don Santiago Maquene. Also, some sketchy info on his family indicates he was descended from Edward I, King of England, through his ancestor Temperance Gerard.
