Matamoros^[1] was born in Mexico City in 1770, where he studied art and theology during his youth. He finished his studies in art in 1786, was ordained as a Roman Catholic priest in 1796 and served in several churches around the city. During this time, he started to sympathize with rebellious issues and for this reason, he was jailed by the Spanish colonial authorities shortly after the war started. He managed to escape from prison and eventually joined the revolutionary army of José María Morelos in December 16 of 1811.

One day before the Izucar battle Morelos named him colonel and ordered to create his own forces, with the population of Jantetelco, Matamoros create 2 regiments of cavalry, 2 battalions of infantry and 1 of artillery, in total his forces were composed by 2000 men.

During the Siege of Cuautla from February 9 to May 2 of 1812, Morelos recognized Matamoro's ability in the battlefield and promoted him to the rank of lieutenant general, effectively becoming second on command of the army. One night Matamoros broke the siege and could join Miguel Bravo in Aculco. Once the siege was lifted, the campaign continued in Oaxaca, it was surrounded in November 25 of 1812. After Matamoros won some battles, first in Santo Domingo Tonalá against Manuel Lambrini followed by San Juan Coscomatepec and San Agustín del Palmar against the Asturias battalion.

Michoacán

Matamoros was in the Battle of Valladolid close to the city of Valladolid in Michoacán, the present day city of Morelia, where the Spanish army won. After the battle, on 5 January 1814, the army moved to Puruaran, Agustin de Iturbide attacked the Morelos army and it was a disaster, in the middle of the confusion Matamoros tried to escape crossing the river (close to Puruaran) but was captured by Eusebio Rodríguez, a soldier from the battalion of "Frontera", who received 200 pesos and a promotion.

Allegedly Morelos offered 200 Spanish prisoners in exchange for Matamoros, but was turned down by the Spanish colonial authorities.

Matamoros was removed from the priesthood and tried for treason. He was executed by firing squad in Valladolid, Michoacán on February 3, 1814.
