Vincente De Valverde

Vicente de Valverde was a Spanish bishop. He was born in Oropesa (Toledo), Spain about 1490 and most sources claim he died in Isla Puná, Ecuador, in 1543. He was a Dominican friar, and went to Peru about 1530, although it is not certain whether he accompanied Francisco Pizarro from Spain or arrived at San Miguel de Piura in 1531 with re-enforcements from Panama.
