José Chavéz y Castillo was a Mexican landowner and trader who served as provisional Governor of New Mexico from 1 May 1845 until 16 November 1845, when Manuel Armijo became governor for a third term. José Chavéz was the son of Francisco Xavier Chávez, the first governor of New Mexico after it gained independence from Spain, and brother of Mariano Cháves, who also served briefly as acting governor. With the opening up of the Santa Fe Trail, by 1839 José Chavéz and his nephew Antonio José Chavez were among the Santa Fe traders engaged in the profitable business of importing goods from the United States, which other traders would buy and transport to markets in Chihuahua and other places to the south. ==References== ;Citations ;Sources * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「José Chavéz y Castillo」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
