He joined Gonzalo Pizarro and was Alferez General at the battle of Añaquito. He married the Princess Inez Yupanqui Ñusta, after she had had a daughter by the Marquis Pizarro. He took his young daughter Francesca to Spain where she eventually married her uncle Hernando Pizarro in prison, and had children.
