About Juan (later John) Towns

"this was the Towns family. A census taken in 1835 revealed two additions to the family, including Juan (later John) who would become Lin-Manuel Miranda’s 4th great-grandfather. The race columns, a holdover from the days of Spanish dominion, were left blank as preferred by the Mexican government. It’s curious that David and “Maria Sofi” were recorded as single, but that may reflect an assumption on the part of the enumerator." ~ https://www.megansmolenyak.com/lin-manuel-mirandas-revolutionary-an...
