Not many years can be found about the lives of Magellan's family. Once while in Spain, Magellan befriended a man named Diogo Barbosa and married his daughter. Her name was Maria Caldera Beatriz Barbosa. They had 2 boys but niether Maria nor the sons lived through around the year of 1521. The two boys were Rodrigo de Magalhaes and Carlos de Magalhaes. There is no information as to how or why all of Magellan's family died, but it is believed the boys died before their mother.
