Arvizu of San Miguel de Horcasitas traces the lineage and legacy of the Arvizu families who helped shape the early history of Sonora, Mexico. Centered on the descendants living in or near San Miguel de Horcasitas at the time of the presidio’s founding, this book follows the family lines of Domingo Arvizu, Juan de Dios Arvizu, Joseph Savino Arvizu, Francisco Xavier Arvizu, Joseph Antonio Arvizu, and Alexandra Arvizu.

Drawing from original records, this volume includes early documentation of Juan de Arvizu, noted in Sonora as far back as the late 1600s, and continues through descendants born in Horcasitas up to the early 1900s.
