Lorencita Naranjo (1899-1987) was born on the Santa Clara pueblo on May 25, 1899, the daughter of Valentine Naranjo (1875-by 1930) and Nestora Gutierrez (1879-1980). She was presumably taught the craft of pottery from her mother, an accomplished potter (best known as Nestora Gutierrez Silva, after her second husband Adam Silva, whom she married after Lorencita's father's death.) Lorencita married first Epifiano Tafoya (1880-1924) and second, after his death, his brother Margarito Tafoya (1888-1980); they were the sons of Manuel Tafoya and Maria Deluvina Naranjo, and related to the great Margaret Tafoya (1901-2001), acknowledged as the matriarch and best of the Santa Clara potters.
