Did Andres quintana roo have kids?

No names provided for the children of Andres Quintana Roo, but the following information on his wife, Leona Vicario was found in this document www.genderlatam.org.uk/documents/workingpaperrewrite2.docLeona Vicario(1789-1842) played an important role during the independence struggles in Mexico. An orphan, Vicario defied her royalist uncle and guardian, and gave much of her fortune to the rebel cause. She bought and smuggled arms, sent coded information to the insurgents, and recruited soldiers. She was captured and, during her trial in 1813, she admitted to having read several books prohibited by the Inquisition. She was specifically asked if she possessed a copy of a speech by the Spanish Benedictine monk, Benito Gerónimo Feijóo y Montenegro.[1] She was imprisoned, and her property confiscated, but escaped and joined Morelos's army in Oaxaca. She rode with the army, helped to plan strategies, administered its finances and looked after the injured. She married Andrés Quintana Roo, her uncle's former law clerk and on 3 January 1817, she gave birth to their first child in a cave. After independence, Vicario was declared a national heroine. She was granted a hacienda and three houses in Mexico City to reward her contribution and as compensation for her losses. In 1828, the town of Saltillo was temporarily renamed Leona Vicario in recognition of her efforts; and when she died, in 1842, Santa Anna himself led the funeral procession.[2] Yet her part in the independence movement was redefined in the Liberal/ Conservative battles that plagued the nineteenth century. After independence, Vicario lived the life of a noblewoman, dedicating herself to Quintana Roo, their two children, the poor and the church. But on 2 February 1831 she appealed to President Anastasio Bustamente to protect her staunchly Liberal husband, whose life she believed to be in danger due to his opposition to the Conservative government. The newspaper El Sol accused Vicario of insulting the president and, as a slight to Quintana Roo, described her as her husband's attorney. The Conservative historian, Lucas Alamán then wrote that Vicario had joined the independence cause out of love for her husband, Andrés Quintana Roo, rather than any affinity with the insurgents. This version was repeated in later official histories.[3] Vicario defended herself in Quintana Roo's paper, El Federalista Mexicano. Carlos María de Bustamente (who in 1829 had helped fifty Mexican women who objected to the expulsion of their Spanish husbands) supported her, maintaining that she had persuaded Quintana Roo to enrol in the rebels' cause. There ensued a polemic in the press between El Federalista on Vicario's side and El Sol and the Registro Oficial for the government. On 23 April 1831 El Federalista was closed down following heavy fines imposed by the government and in January 1832 Quintana Roo went into hiding.[4] Vicario survived the independence battles and the political wrangles that followed, but her commitment to justice and her adhesion to liberal ideas put her against the establishment. The part she played at independence was redefined in accordance with the dominant Conservative climate. Vicario did defend her image, but Alamán's portrayal of her has endured.---- [1] Genaro García, Documentos históricos mexicanos, Tomo V, Edición Facsimilar, Museo Nacional de Arqueología, Historia y Etnología, México, 1910, p.46.
