gestoso1899-1908, p. 402: “Vecino en la Magdalena. Véase Martínez (Cristóbal), Cuchillero—Apéndice gral. a los tomos I y II.”
romanillos2002, p. 11: “Alfón, Rodrigo. In 1482 Rodrigo Alfón paid for the upkeep of a lancer in the war against the Moors. In 1543 he was living in the parish of Santa Magdalena, Sevilla. [Gestoso]. Bib: BL (I)”
The information re 1482 comes from Diccionario Enciclopedico del Flamenco and needs to be checked. It is improbable that the two documents 61 years apart could refer to the same person.
