I copied the following information from Fray Angelico Chavez's book, ORIGINS OF NEW MEXICO FAMILIES. The source notes that Sebastian had no children, if I am reading the paragraph correctly. Do you have a source that noted Maria Sebastiana as the daughter of Sebastian and Lucia? The source indicates that Sebastiana was an orphan who was reared by Sebastian.
Chavez, ONMF (1992 ed), p. 189.
SEBASTIAN GONZALEZ BAS, who returned with the Reconqust, is in all likelihood the one described in 1680-81; he must not be confused with the Adjutant of the same name who stayed at Guadalupe del Paso. Sebastian died in Sant Fe on June 11, 1726, and his widow, Lucia Ortiz, passed away on March 3, 1738. He was an uncle of Juan Gonzalez Bas of the Rio Abajo, and therefore a brother, or half-brother, of Juan Gonzalez Bernal. He was a member and officer in 1693 of the Conquistadora Confraternity.
Apparently he had no children of his own. His heirs, Sebastiana Gonzalez, wife of Geronimo de Ortega, and Salvador Gonzalez of Santa Fe, were orphans (very likely close relatives) reared by him. Salvador Gonzalez married Leonicia de la Vega, April 13, 1730.
