Contrary to popular belief, Sartorius had nothing to do with Poland; he was of German origins. His paternal ancestors were from
Hesse, the grandfather Johann Philipp Sartorius came from
Umstadt and the grandmother María Isabel Trier was from
Wehrda. Their son and Sartorius' father, Andrés Sartorius Trier, was born in
Marburg; a military engaged against the French troops, he then sought refuge in Spain. He married María Joaquina Tapia Sánchez, born in Puerto Rico; her parents, Antonio de Tapia and Josefa Sánchez Oviedo, following a spell in America returned to their native Andalusia. Sartorius was married to María de los Remedios Chacón y Romero de Cisneros (daughter of Rafael Chacón, 7th Marquis of Cela, and María del Amparo Romero de Cisneros y Nagüens), with whom he had seven children: •
