The holders of the title were all members of the House of Tagle, an aristocratic family in Spain and Mexico during the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries. The members of the family also married into powerful Spanish nobles houses such as that of the Dukes of Moctezuma de Tultengo and the Dukes of Tetuán. A cadet branch of the House of Tagle also established themselves in the Philippines, where they soon became one of that country's richest families.
