Governor of Texas Joaquín Antonio Domingo Arredondo y Mioño, Gral.

Military commandant of the Texas province during the first Texas revolutions against Spanish rule. Joaquín de Arredondo was the most powerful and influential person in northeastern New Spain from 1811 to 1821. His rise to prominence began in 1811 when the Spanish military officer and a small royalist army suppressed Miguel Hidalgo’s revolution in the province of Nuevo Santander. This prompted the Spanish government to promote Arredondo to Commandant General of the Eastern Internal Provinces, making him the foremost civil and military authority in northeastern New Spain and leading the Spanish victory in the Battle of Medina of 1813.
