Name of article - Should be Martín Cortés (el Mestizo)
I'd like to rename this article. In the spanish-language (and other wikipedias) there isn't the ambiguity we're having here. This Martín (the older) doesn't have a maternal last name because Doña Marina didn't have a last name, so he's referred to as Martín Cortés, el Mestizo to differentiate from Martín Cortés Zuñiga, his younger half-brother who does have a maternal last name.

Dubious - dates under Don Juan
I've marked "dubious" dates where Martín would be under Don Juan. It says "War of Granada" and specifies 1482-1492, which would be correct for that war. But that was before either Martín or Don Juan were born. More likely this refers to a revolt in Granada which Don Juan suppressed 1569-1570. Can someone who has a copy of the reference please clear this up? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tarlneustaedter (talk • contribs) 02:24, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
In LÓPEZ, D. M. (1954). El primer regreso de hernán cortés a españa. Revista De Indias, 14, 55. The footnote on Martín Cortés indicates that he died while on campaign in Alpujarras between 1 April 1568 and 14 December 1569. The spanish wikipedia entry has a slightly different story (different dates, it seems) as well as different cited sources; but agrees that he would have been on the campaign in the rebellion, not the original "War of Grenada". Given this, I am changing the link to the later rebellion in Grenada. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.66.66.58 (talk) 10:42, 27 February 2017 (UTC)

Nahua Noble?
Please document why you think Martín Cortés was a Nahua noble. Neither of his parents were part of the Nahua nobility. Some of Cortés daughters were, but not Martín the Mestizo. Tarl.Neustaedter (talk) 00:27, 7 October 2014 (UTC)
- That edit history was attempting to say 'See "growing up in Spain"'. Not sure how I got "Ppain" in there. Tarl.Neustaedter (talk) 02:14, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
