He came in midsummer in the company of Governor don Juan de Manso. Testimony given in 1662 by Capitan Miguel de Hinojos, a 10g-grandfather to Marlin, mentions Juan as a mercador (merchant). In June of 1662 Juan was described as "camarada y paisano de don don Juan Manso" (comrade and countryman of the said don Juan Manso). This stated close friendship and countryman of the governor may be an indication that Mestas may have come from España with Manso.
Gov. Manso, born about 1628 and governor of Nuevo Mexico from 1656 to 1659, and his older brother, fray Tomas Manso were from a seaport on the the north coast, Luarco, Asturias, España. Fray Tomas was the Franciscan procurador-general in Nuevo Mexico for 25 years, provincial of his order in 1655 and was later named bishop of Nicaragua. Juan Mestas was known to be Astuian and may also have been from Luarco or nearby.
Juan Mestas stored his commercial goods in a room at the Governor's Palace. In early 1659, two Indians by the name of Juan Zuni and Cristobal el Meco found the door slightly open and stole goods that the eventually distributed to others in the Villa de Santa Fe. Mestas suspected Zuni but when confronted, Zuni denied the theft. Some of the goods came into the possession of the with of Capitan Bartolome Romero who purchased them from an Apache women named Maria. Maria was a servant of Capitan Hernan Martin and the wife of Nicolas Duran, el mozo. An investigation followed and Zuni and el Meco were arrested. Most of the goods were returned to Mestas.
During the residencia of Governor Manso, 1659, Governor Lopez de Mendizábal placed Manso under house arrest. Concerned for his life Manso wrote several letters to the viceroy of Nueva España and entrusted copies to three men: Juan de Mestas, Padre fray Nicolas Cháves and Diego Gonzalez Lobon. These three men traveled together to Ciudad de Mexico where Mestas was mentioned in July of 1662 as having provided information to the Real Audiencia of Nueva España regarding the case of his compañero, Governor don Juan de Manso. Juan Mestas was still in la Ciudad de Mexico as of May 1663.
