The Spanish surname Salazar is an habitational name from a place called Salazar in Burgos, probably named with sala meaning “hall” and  Basque za(h)ar meaning "old," and thus a Basque equivalent of Saavedra. The first written record of the name is in 1604 when Ana de Salasar was christened at Santa Maria Magdalena, Valladolid, Spain. In the New World early records include Viveros Salazar, in the town of Concepcion, Mexico, on July 13th 1794, and Luis Salazar, who on June 24th 1844 married Maria Jacoba Felix, at Mission San Fernando, Los Angeles, California.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    .
