Anastasio Torrejon
Anastasio Torrejon (c. 1802 – 1861) was a Mexican Army officer who commanded troops during the Mexican-American War.
== Biography ==
Torrejon was born in Llanos de Apan in the Viceroyalty of New Spain, becoming a cadet lieutenant at the age of 14. He fought on the Royalist side during the Mexican War of Independence and by the early 1820s had been promoted to the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel. In 1823, with New Spain now ruled by the Mexican Empire of Agustin de Iturbide, Torrejon backed Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna's Plan of Casa Mata that made Mexico a republic and as a Brigadier General in 1845 overthrew Jose Joaquin de Herrera's government in favor of Mariano Paredes y Arrillaga.
On the eve of the outbreak of hostilities with the United States, Torrejon commanded the 3rd Cavalry Brigade of Brigadier-General Mariano Arista's Army of the North, and on 24 April 1846 he forded the Rio Grande during the Mexican-American War. At Rancho Carricitos he attacked Captain Seth Thornton's two companies of American dragoons and defeated them in the "Thornton Affair", the start of the war between America and Mexico. His attempt to block the Point Isabel Road and to attack General Zachary Taylor's supply trains failed and in the 1847 Battle of Buena Vista his cavalry nearly drove the Americans back, but in doing so placed them in front of the American artillery. Torrejon participated in the battles for Mexico City soon after, covering the retreat of the Mexican army to defend the capital in the Battle of Contreras. He later engaged the Americans at San Cosme Gate.
After the Mexican-American War, Torrejon became the commanding general at Michoacan in 1854, and he died around 1861.
