Enrique de Olavide y Michelena was the Governor of New Mexico (1746–1809) and the island of Guam (1749–1756 and 1768–1771). ==Career== Enrique de Olavide y Michelena was appointed Governor of Santa Fe de Nuevo México in 1736. Michelena, accepting a petition of Alferez Juan Josh Moreno, designated seven grazing lands (Cara Del Rio, Santa Cruz or San Marcos), to be exclusively used to graze herds of horses. Owners of herds of cattle and flocks of sheep were notified that these lands would now be designated for horse grazing only. They were ordered to move from these newly-designated lands in fifty days or pay a fine of fifty pesos. Toward the end of his term of appointment, in 1738, Olavide y Michelina visited Albuquerque. Nicolas Duran De Chavez Grant asked him for a grant that would allow him to maintain his large family (9 children) and to graze non-equine livestock on the newly designated lands. Michelina refused, but gave him permission to use the lands temporarily, until a new governor was appointed to New Mexico to officially grant the request.〔(New Mexico Office of the State Historian: Nicolas Duran de Chaves Grant ).
