Sabas G. Cavazos (1816–1878) was the second great-grandfather of the Esparza sisters. He was the son of Doña Estefana Goseascochea and the half-brother of Juan Nepomuceno Cortina, the famous Tejano leader. Sabas was a respected rancher in South Texas and an ally of prominent figures such as Richard King, Mifflin Kenedy, and Charles Stillman during the era of major land and cattle operations. Historical accounts and family lore suggest that Sabas loaned Porfirio Díaz $50,000 in gold to support Díaz’s revolutionary efforts in the 1870s. When Sabas later traveled to Mexico City to recover the debt after Díaz became president, he allegedly died under suspicious circumstances—possibly poisoned—though this claim remains debated among historians
