SA's accountant was forced to keep personnel information from the soldiers
In the 1680s a controversy arose between Accountant Thomas Menendez Marquez, who had been copying the soldiers’ entire records for them on request, and Governor Marques Cabrera, who wanted to keep the contents of the files confidential. The crown ruled that the accountant could release only the bare facts of dates and posts served. [Note 20: Thomas Menendez Marquez 10/7/1686; cedula to Thomas Menendez Marquez 9/22/1687]
