Another dubious entry in Appleton's Cyclopedia of American Biography Vol 1 - actually the very same entry as for Acosta Acolhua, above - mentions that Tetzotzoaloc begins to rule Azcapotzalco in 1239.

The Aztec rulers Acamapichtli, Huitzilihuitl and Chimalpopoca were, in fact, vassals of Tezozomoc, the Tepanec ruler of Azcapotzalco. When Tezozomoc died in 1421, his son Malazia ascended to the throne of Azcapotzalco.
