José María Gutiérrez de Estrada

José María Gutiérrez de Estrada (17 October 1800 – 17 May 1867), was a Mexican  conservative diplomat, minister, and senator. He came from the state of Yucatan, where his brother, Joaquín Gutiérrez de Estrada, also a conservative politician, would go on to become governor.

Estrada was one of the most prominent Mexican monarchists having written an essay advocating such a government in 1840. Almost two decades later in 1863, he headed the delegation that offered the Mexican throne to Maximilian of Habsburg at Miramare Castle. Provided by Wikipedia
