Miguel Gregorio Antonio Ignacio Hidalgo y Costilla y Gallaga Mondarte Villaseñor (1753–1811)
More commonly known as Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla, was a Mexican priest and a leader of the War of “Independencia de Mexico”.
Miguel Hidalgo was born on May 8, 1753. His father was the administrator of a hacienda in the Bajío in the present state of Guanajuato.
In 1810 Hidalgo led a group of indigenous and mestizo peasants in a war against the dominant peninsulares under the banner of the “Virgen de Guadalupe”. After clashes with the criollos and Mexican townspeople the group disbanded. Hidalgo was captured on 21 March 1811, and executed on 30 July.
Hidalgo's rebellion was the beginning of what would become the Mexican War of Independence. Although he was unsuccessful in his original aim, Hidalgo's efforts were followed by those of José María Morelos and Agustín de Iturbide who brought down the colonial governments of Spain in Mexico. Hidalgo is considered “El padre de la Nación en Mexico”.

María de la Natividad Josefa Ortiz de Dominguez (1768-1829)
She was born in México City, and was raised by her sister after becoming an orphan at an early age. She married Don Miguel Dominguez, a government official. They moved to the beautiful and industrial city of Queretaro where he became “El Corregidor” or mayor. Thus, she is also known as “La Corregidora”.
She participated actively in the Independence movement that began in the city of Queretaro. Her participation in this movement was crucial in its early stages since she provided financial support. One of her most important contributions to the Independence movement was when she alerted to Miguel Hidalgo that the conspiracy had been discovered by the Spanish. Thus, Hidalgo, prompted “EL GRITO DE INDEPENDENCIA” on September 16 1810.
She died in 1829 in Mexico City. She later was laid to rest in the City of Queretaro

José de la Cruz Porfirio Díaz Mori (1830-1915)
He was born in the state of Oaxaca in 1830. He was born into extreme poverty and never even reached complete literacy, but in 1855 he joined a band of liberal guerrillas who were fighting a resurgent Antonio López de Santa Anna.
He was a Mexican general, President, politician and dictator. He ruled Mexico for 35 years, from 1876 to 1911. His period of rule, referred to as the “Porfiriato”, was marked by great progress and modernization and the boomed Mexican economy. The benefits were felt by very few. He lost power in 1910-1911 after rigging an election against Francisco I. Madero.

Francisco Ignacio Madero González (1873-1913)
Madero was born in the state of Coahuila to extremely wealthy parents: they were the fifth richest family in Mexico. His grandfather Evaristo made many lucrative investments and was involved in, among other interests, ranching, wine-making, silver, textiles and cotton. As a young man Francisco was very well educated, studying in the United States, Austria and France.
He was a politician, writer and revolutionary who served as President of Mexico from 1911 to 1913. Madero was executed by the Porfirista military in 1913

Miguel Hidalgo was born a Creole on May 8, 1753. His father was the administrator of a hacienda in the Bajío (in the present state of Guanajuato). Miguel was trained briefly in a Jesuit school before the order was expelled from the empire in 1767.

From 1792 until 1810 Hidalgo served as parish priest in a succession of curacies. While in San Felipe (1793-1803), he made his house a salon and promoted French theatrical works (which he translated), orchestral music, dances, and literary discussions. The Inquisition investigated his activities (1800-1801) but did not press charges. On his arrival in Dolores near Guanajuato in 1803, Hidalgo turned to more socioeconomic interests. These he expressed through his development of local craft industries (ceramics, tanning, sericulture) for the benefit of the Indian and caste population.

Josefa Ortiz De Domínguez was the heroine of the Mexican Independence. She was born in México City, and was raised by her sister after becoming an orphan at an early age. She attended Vizcainas College and graduated in 1791. She married Don Miguel Dominguez, a prominent government official. They moved to the beautiful and industrial city of Queretaro where he became “El Corregidor” or mayor. Thus, she is also known as “La Corregidora”.

She participated actively in the Independence movement that began in the city of Queretaro. Her participation in this movement was crucial in its early stages since she provided financial support. One of her most important contributions to the Independence movement was when she alerted Father Miguel Hidalgo that the conspiracy had been discovered by the Spanish. Thus, Hidalgo, prompted “EL GRITO DE INDEPENDENCIA” on September 16, 1810, instead of October as it had been previously planned.

Doña Josefa Ortiz de Dominguez, who risked her life and freedom on behalf of the Mexican Independence, died in 1829 in Mexico City. She later was laid to rest in the City of Queretaro, her contribution to the history of Mexican Independence has impacted today’s women by her courage and loyalty to her country. The Little Village community, predominantly of Mexican descent, is proud to name one of its schools after her, JOSEFA ORTIZ DE DOMINGUEZ.

José de la Cruz Porfirio Díaz (1830-1915) was a Mexican general and political leader. During his 34-year, virtually unchallenged rule of Mexico the economy grew and the country remained at peace despite its anachronistic social system.

Latin American countries in the 19th century remained chained to a colonial past with few exceptions. Mexico, one of the Western Hemisphere's most poorly governed states, had suffered more than most. After half a century of independence its economy lay ruined, its people were exhausted by civil war, and over half its territory had been lost to the United States. The autocratic government of Porfirio Díaz sought to bring order out of this chaos and to make Mexico into a modern industrialized state. A charismatic and capable leader, he almost succeeded in this protean task, yet finally failed because he gave economic development far too high a priority over social justice.

Porfirio Díaz was born in the southern Mexican state of Oaxaca into a middle-class urban family of Spanish-Indian ancestry.

Francisco I. Madero was born in Parras, Coahuila on October 30, 1873. Son of a wealthy landowner. Family was devoted to ranching, farming and commerce. Studied commerce and economics in France and agriculture in the U.S. Saw the need to improve conditions in Mexico.

Ran for president of Mexico against Díaz. Was arrested and then released, on bail, after Díaz had been declared President. Jumped bail and fled to the U.S. In 1910, he led a revolt against the Díaz administration. Was successful in forcing Díaz into exile in 1911.

Elected President in 1911. Many groups became disenchanted with Madero's handling of Mexico's problems and in 1913, revolted against him. Madero was overthrown and killed.

He was declared as general candidate presidential for de elections of 1910. He did the “Plan de San Luis Potosi”.
He was important for his participation in the Mexican republic.

Porfirio Díaz
(1876 – 1876)
He was president in two occasions he came with good ideas to the presidency bout his ambition went of his second term a disaster.

I think that those people are important for their participation in the independence (Hidalgo and Josefa Ortiz) and in the Mexican revolution (Madero and Porfirio).
