About this record
A COMANDANTE 'D. PEDRO ANTONIO LLERENA' NAMED IN A CANELONES BURIAL OF 1820, NEW TO THIS ARCHIVE: IDENTITY OPEN. The act: 'El dia dos de Abril de mil ochocientos veinte yo el infrascrito Cura y Vicario de esta Parroquia de N.

Pedro Antonio Llerena. Murio en la comunion de la Santa Iglesia Romana: no recibio Sacramento alguno: murio violentamente. Por verdad lo firmo', signed Tomas Dr. de Gomensoro; margin 'Manuel de Limon' [read, not settled]. WHAT IT SHOWS: a man styled Comandante and written Llerena, leading 'Spanish guerrillas' in the Canelones district in April 1820, the year of the Portuguese occupation of the Banda Oriental; he is NAMED ONLY, as the leader of the dead man, and the act says nothing of his age, birthplace, wife or parents. WHETHER HE IS PEDRO ANTONIO LERENA, born at Canelones on 31 July 1793 to the dragoon Sancho Lerena and Maria Fernandez (row of Pedro Antonio LERENA, son of Sancho), IS NOT SETTLED: the name and the district agree, and he would have been twenty-six; but a commandant at twenty-six is unusual, the name Pedro Antonio is common, and nothing joins them. NOT MERGED. Nothing about Fidel Lerena or Isidora Izaural in the act; found while scanning the Canelones death book of 1805-1822 for them.
