Francisco Novella Azabal Pérez Y Sicardo
Francisco Novella Azabal Pérez y Sicardo (1769 – 1822) was a Spanish general in New Spain and interim viceroy of the colony from July 5, 1821 to July 21, 1821, during the Mexican war of independence. Biography A previous viceroy, Félix María Calleja del Rey, 1st Count of Calderón, had established a fort in the old tobacco warehouse in Mexico City, named ''La Ciudadela''.
