DescriptionPortrait of Don Jose Antonio Carrillo who married the eldest child (Dona Maria Francisca Leona, born 1836) of Don Jose Sepulveda. He was Secretary of State during the time Pio Pico served as Governor under the Mexican regime.
Active during the Mexican period in California, Jose Antonio was also held in high esteem after the American conquest; he signed the Treaty of Cahuenga when the war ended and was a delegate to the constitutional Convention in Monterey in 1849. His signature appears on the Constitution under which Calif. was admitted to the Union. Don Jose died in 1862 in Santa Barbara.
