[47375] He was among the first if not the first non-native born to obtain a permit to trap beaver in Nuevo Mexico from the government of Mexico. He became a Mexican citizen, converted to the Catholic Church and married Maria Encarnación as terms of his permit. He and a partner, William Workman ran a flour mill and distillery near Taos and tried to obtain land grants for ranching and logging until 1841 when they participated in a expedition over the Old Spanish Trail to California with Juan Manuel Baca and other citizens from Abiquiú. (Baca was the founder of Vacaville, California. He had fallen under suspicion by Gov. Manuel Armijo that he and Workman were plotting with the new Republic of Texas to invade Nuevo Mexico. He and Workman returned to Taos in the spring of 1842 and departed for California that fall with their families. In California they obtained a land grant of nearly 50,000 acres which they named Rancho de La Puente. The grant was approved by the Padre at the Mission San Gabriel and given temporary title by Gov. Alvarado on January 4, 1824. Permanent title was granted by Gov. Pio Pico on July 22, 1845.
[47374] He was born in the house where his grandmother Sarah Latham lived.
