Abstract
Studies on the interrelationships between genealogy and social history allow for a more precise definition of demographic, social, economic and political behaviours in border societies, like the one in Tenerife at the beginning of the 16th century. We have applied this approach to the case of Marina Fernández de la Vera, a woman pertaining to the rural elite of the region of Tegueste, whose life allows us to draw a series of interesting conclusions.
