Biography
Antonio Gutiérrez y Ulloa became Colonial Intendant of San Salvador on 28 June 1805.[1][2] He was described as "infatuated" and "difficult" and was unpopular with those residing in San Salvador.[2]
On 5 November 1811, José Matías Delgado, Manuel José Arce, and 400 armed supporters overthrew Gutiérrez y Ulloa declaring "There is no King, no Intendant, or Captain General, we only have to obey our mayors."[3][4] The independence movement was eventually crushed by Spanish forces under José Alejandro de Aycinena later in the year who became Colonial Intendant on 3 December 1811.[5]
Gutiérrez y Ulloa supported the ascension of Agustín de Iturbide as Emperor of the First Mexican Empire in 1822.[6]
