The Holguín family is a Colombian political family that has played a prominent role in Colombian politics since the 1890s, primarily as the first family of Colombia from 1888 to 1892 and from 1921 to 1922, during the presidencies of Carlos Holguín and Jorge Holguín, respectively. They also played a prominent role in Colombian diplomacy, art, journalism, and business. The Holguín family is one of five families to have produced more than one president presidents of Colombia by the same surname; the others were the López, Ospina, Santos and Lleras families.
Known for their political involvement, their relatives have held various national and state positions over four generations, including ambassador to Colombia (President Carlos Holguín; and Jorge Holguín). Other relatives include the diplotic María Ángela Holguín; and senator Paola Holguín. The Holguín family is primarily of Spanish descent. Their European origins date back to the 15th century, with Nicolás Martín Holguín being their first ancestor born in Colombia, in 1786. The Holguín family originated in Granada and Extramadura through settlers who arrived in Colombia, settling in Boyacá.[1][2][3][4][5]
