+== Religious Military Orders  ==
 During the time of the Crusades (1100-1450), the Spanish nobility established military orders of knighthood. The orders were organized to provide a fraternal and religious life and were devoted to the reconquest of Spain and the protection of pilgrimages to the Holy Land. These orders functioned under the leadership of the Pope and were independent of other ecclesiastical or civil authorities. However, as the orders increased in wealth and power they came into conflict with the Spanish Crown. By 1587 most of the orders passed under the dominion of the monarch. The original purposes of the orders were abolished and they later became honorary in nature.<br>

 The only people allowed to be members of the military orders were people of the category of hidalgo or gentleman. To prove their worthiness as a hidalgo, the applicant was required to submit a documented genealogy of three generations of his family. At present, these records are mostly found in the National Historic Archive in Madrid. The records of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem are located in the Archive of the Crown of Aragon.<br>
