Manuel Lorenzo Justiniano de Zavala y Sáenz was born the fifth of nine children of Anastasio de Zavala y Velázquez and María Bárbara Sáenz y Castro in the village of Tecoh near Mérida, Yucatán, on October 3, 1788.
Serving as an alternative to the Scottish Rite Grand Orient style of Masonry favored by the politically conservative and centralist leaders, the York Rite boasted a membership that championed liberal ideals and a decentralized, federal plan for government.
Zavala condemned the action stating: "a government that takes orders from armed masses is no longer a body politic." He further extended his protest by helping Santa Anna compose a letter, addressed to Burnet, denouncing his treatment at the hands of the mob.

 Sullivan - History of New York State 1523-1927
When the first United States census was taken, in 1790, New York State had to be content with fifth place among the confederated States, for she had less than half as many inhabitants as Virginia, and less than Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Massachusetts.
The Supreme Court of the State is even more like the provincial Supreme Court, and the county courts are substantially the same as the Courts of Common Pleas which functioned in each county from 1691 to the end of the Crown period in 1775, and from the beginning of the State period to 1847.
New York State was rapidly growing; its population was rapidly changing in character; the conservative provincial families were being outnumbered by the thousands of immigrant families that debarked at New York and settled in different parts of the State, the change being most evident after the opening of the Erie Canal.
