Notes: Sent as an emissary to Luis Oacpicagigua and his band of rebels on December 30, 1751, he was killed by them as evidenced in Bernardo de Urrea's journal taken from AGI, Guadalajara 419, 3M, folio 49: January 4, 1752 - We remained at the said place without any trouble until eleven o'clock at night when one of the messengers, Ignacio Batubipe, returned with a Yaqui Indian called Joachín, who had been among the rebels. They had secretly contacted the advance sentries, one of whom came to us with the said Ignacio and Joachín. Ignacio was asked what Captain Don Luis had said, to which Joachín, the Yaqui, whom we had brought [into camp] responded that Captain Don Luis was coming with all his troops to kill us. We asked them what had happened to Ignacio, the mador, and Nicolás. The said Yaqui replied that they beat Ignacio to death with their war clubs (macanas) at the command of Don Luis and that Nicolás would come with the rebel troops."
