The post Distribution of the Moriscos according to the draft distribution of 1571 first appeared on History Lab.

]]> From 1570 onwards, more than 11,000 Moriscos, forcibly expelled from their place of origin by the Spanish Crown, were received in Extremadura. The largest group arrived in Extremadura at the end of 1570 (some 6,800 from Granada), with the second wave arriving almost a year later.
In the present case, the distribution of the places of seigniory in Extremadura was carried out in December 1751, with 1,764 Moriscos arriving in the current territories of Extremadura. A third of the Moriscos remained in the capital, with the majority located at the head of each demarcation, while smaller groups were distributed among various villages.
The situation in which these new residents lived varied greatly depending on their destination, as many rural areas of Extremadura at the time were experiencing marked economic hardship, making it even more difficult for these groups from Granada to settle satisfactorily.
