Wikipedia description:

Don Mariano Guadalupe Vallejo (July 7, 1807 – January 18, 1890) (Spanish pronunciation: [/maˈɾjano ɣwaðaˈlupe βaˈʎexo/] mah-RYAH-noh gwah-dah-LOO-peh vah-YEH-hoh) was a Californio general, statesman, and public figure. He was born a subject of Spain, performed his military duties as an officer of the Republic of Mexico, and shaped the transition of Alta California from a territory of Mexico to the U.S. state of California. He served in the first session of the California State Senate. The city of Vallejo, California, is named after him, and the nearby city of Benicia is named after his wife Francisca Benicia Carrillo.
