Noble family originally from Portugal, whose plot of land settled in Macedo de los Caballeros (from which it undoubtedly took its name), in the region of Bragança Tras Os Montes. The genealogists mention, as the first ancestors, Rui Martins de M., Lord of Sanceris, who lived in the time of King Don Dionis, who was succeeded by his son Gonzalo Rodríguez de M., who owned this Lordship and was Warden of the Castle of Feira , succeeding Martín Gonzales de M., who in the battle of Aljubarrota aided King Don Juan I, killing his adversary Alvar González de Sandoval, a Castilian knight who had seized a club and struck the Monarch with it. He received, in reward for this fact, the mayor's office of the castle of Outeiro, the royal rights of Bragança and the Lordship of the villages of Melgazo and Pindella.
