Birth José Maria Tornel y Mendívil was born March 1, 1795 in the town of Orziba, Veracruz, New Spain to Julian Tornel, a prominent shopkeeper, and Manuela Jacinta Bernarda Mendívil Vidal.{{sfn|Fowler|2000|p=1}} Career Tornel was prominent among the "santanistas,"{{sfn|Haynes|Saxon|Cantrell|Schlereth|2015|pp=103}} a group of politicians and officials who helped Santa Anna return to power frequently, despite defeats in the 1836 Texas Revolution and the 1846–48 Mexican–American War. Tornel advocated a federalist agenda in the 1820s. During that time, Tornel y Mendivil became Mexico's first president Guadalupe Victoria's right arm. Victoria named Tornel the Mexican ambassador to the United States in 1830.{{sfn|Jackson|Wheat|2005|pp=435–442}} His mission was to inform Victoria on Americans' ambitions to take Texas. Thanks to that collaboration, Victoria's government came victorious in the Fredonian Rebellion. Although Tornel supported federalism during the Victoria presidency, he changed his political views to support Santa Anna's reactionary dictatorship in the 1850s. He helped orchestrate the Plan of Cuernavaca revolt in 1834. Tornel served as Minister of War, and helped plan the campaign that led to the Battle of the Alamo. He was the President of the Chamber of Deputies in 1828 and 1841.[1] Writings - The "Tornel Decree" of December 30, 1835 was a key element in the Texas Revolution, giving Santa Anna license to execute all prisoners.{{sfn|Fowler|2007|pp=167,169}}
