Fray Angelico Chávez who was born in 1910 and died in 1996 was a member of one of Santa Fe’s founding families is considered the pre-imminent Hispanic historian of New Mexico. The Catholic priest was also an artist and the author of several books including, Origins of New Mexico Families, New Mexico’s bible for genealogists researching their Spanish roots. The Fray Angelico Chavez Library at the Palace of the Governors is named in his honor.
Fray Angelico chose to follow his spiritual quest of special service to the Franciscan Order at age 14. He was ordained in 1937. Early in his career, Fray Angelico discovered that his talents were also of great service in the military as chaplain . Prior to World War 11, he was chaplain in Fort Bliss, Texas. He served with the Fighting 200th Division in the Phillipines and was fluent in several languages, including English, Spanish, French, German and Italian.
Chavez was later invited by his superiors to study in Rome, Italy, and in Oxford, England, but opted to become a missionary at several rural villages throughout New Mexico. He wrote 22 books, including five books of poetry, five Belles Lettres, a novel titled, Our Lady of Toledo, nine historical books and two biographies. His historical books flowed from his heart, backed by reliable research. Today, the museum that bears the name New Mexico’s preeminent Hispanic author and historian, can find historical research and archival photos at the Fray Angelico Chavez museum.
