Untitled[edit]

Abraham González Casavantes (June 7, 1864 – March 7, 1913) was the provisional and constitutional governor of the Mexican state of Chihuahua during the Mexican Revolution. He was a mentor to the Mexican revolutionary Pancho Villa.

A native of Ciudad Guerrero, Chihuahua, González was a member of one of the richest and best-educated families in the area. The González family was believed to be descended from European nobility. He had his college education at the University of Notre Dame, in Indiana, United States.

He was the main leader of the Maderista Junta Revolucionaria Mexicana, which opposed the reelection of dictator Porfirio Diaz in the State of Chihuahua in 1910.

He was obliged to resign from his post as governor and arrested on February 25, 1913, on orders of General Antonio Rábago. Shortly afterward he was taken aboard a train on the pretense of being transferred to Mexico City. On orders from de facto president General Victoriano Huerta, he was removed from the train and murdered in Bachimba Canyon, about 40 miles (65 km) south of Chihuahua, Chihuahua.

His nephew Colonel Fernando González y González and Pancho Villa later recovered González's remains and gave him a hero's funeral in Chihuahua.
