[edit]JUAN ALVAREZ WAS BORN IN MEXICO
[edit]
This page may be seriously in error. While researching a history of México I discovered there are two Juan Álvarezes, both with very similar biographies, but with one MAJOR difference. Juan Álvarez Benítez became President of México and Juan N. Álvarez Hurtado did not. The Wikipedia articles for Juan Álvarez, President of México, both in English and in Spanish say, incorrectly, that Juan N. Álvarez Hurtado became president of México and then go on to give his complete biography. All official lists of the Presidents of México in México say that Juan Álvarez Benítez was the President of México.
Or, it is POSSIBLE they were really the same person, does anyone have an answer?
I have only used Wikipedia for research purposes and certainly don't have the expertise to correct this very serious error. Can someone help? Mazbook (talk) 02:28, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
The form "Juan Alvarez Benitez" is in error. (Benitez was the surname of Alvarez's SPOUSE, not his mother). The general who became president was Juan (Nepomuceno) Alvarez HURTADO, as is clearly established in "La carrera politica y militar de Juan Alvarez", by Clyde Gilbert Bushnell (Mexico: Gobierno del Estado de Guerrero, 1988). The original of this work is in English, but was not available to me. The "serious error" is "Benitez". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.2.112.45 (talk) 16:13, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
