  • Mexican Imperial Almanac of 1866

Mexican Imperial Almanac of 1866

Por A_Tejano | 7:40 PM MST, Lun Enero 25, 2010

I just found a great find through doing some google.com.mx searches this past weekend in relation to Imperial Orders of Mexico. It appears that there was an Almanaque Imperial produced during the reign of Maximiliano y Carlota. The one I found was from the year 1866, when Imperial control reached its full extent in Mexico.

There is a wealth of information, especially names to be found. Among them is military information that seems so hard for many of us to get to. For example, the comisarios imperiales are listed. The area we are looking into was divided between the Tercera Division, its capital being San Luis Potosi. The area, while including San Luis Potosi also included Fresnillo, which i'm guessing encompassed the northern half of Zacatecas. The rest of Zacatecas, Aguascalientes, Jalisco, Colima and Nayarit among other area's were under the Cuarta Division, its capital being Guadalajara.

Departamentos del Imperio are also listed. Breaking it down from the prefect of the region, to the subprefects of the various cities of those regions.

I also have a seperate list, but also overlaps in many places with the almanaque imperial, of those knighted during the Second Mexican Empire from these three states. I collected this list from a book I had just learned about called Genealogias de Familias Antiguas Mexicanos, published in 1908.

I intend to post up these in the files section. I didn't post a link as the almanac is scattered throughout google in pdf format, although I can post some links if anyone wants to look through that whole book. The Genealogias book, which is actually 3 seperate and large books, I looked through it in person at the special collections section at my university.

Mexican Imperial Records

Yes, I did recieve that link, thanks. Although the general point is it being hard to find such a wealth of information for that time period in Mexico. Especially the imperial half of it which perhaps some of our ancestors were a part of.
Here is an example, perhaps someone will find some relation to the following list. Again, this comming from the Almanaque Imperial, 1866.

Departamentos del Imperio

Francisco R. de Esparza, Prefecto del departamento de Aguascalientes.

Bernardo Flores, Subprefecto de Lagos.

Eduardo Renteria, Subprefecto de Cuguio.

Mariano Rodriguez, Prefecto del departamento de Fresnillo.

Valente Ita y Hurtado, Subprefecto de Somberete.

Gil Santos Coy, Subprefecto de Mazopil.

Juan Escarcia, Subprefecto provisional de San Juan de Guadalupe.

Jose Maria Avila, Prefecto del departamento de Zacatecas.

Francisco Cabrera, Subprefecto del districto de Jerez.

General de Brigada Mariano Morett, Prefecto del departamento de Jalisco, Alcalde municipal de Guadalajara.

Antonio Mardueno, Subprefecto de Tlajamulco.

Jose Maria Meza, Subprefecto de Zapopan.

Abundio Ricon, Subprefecto de Cocula.

Juan Figueroa, Subprefecto de Ahuacatlan.

Miguel Garcia Vargas, Subprefecto de Autlan.

Of course there is also a list of the military commanders and sub-commanders of the regions. One of the interesting lists I've found is of ingenieros registered throughout Mexico, so far I've found 2 names from Jalisco, and one each from Zacatecas and Aguascalientes.
