Francisco Gutiérrez and Manuela García had been born and grown up in Guerrero and had married and raised their family there, but the lands which they had inherited from their ancestors were on the north--or east, on that stretch of the river--side of the Rio Grande/Río Bravo, in what is now Zapata County.
Francisco and Manuela would have traveled to Nuevo Laredo, most likely by mule-drawn wagon, since automobiles were then a rarity in Guerrero and even in Laredo horse- and mule-drawn wagons still outnumbered autos.
The dead men are Francisco Gutiérrez, mayor of the town of Guerrero, Mexico, and owner of the ranch where the tragedy occurred, and his son, Manuel Gutiérrez, a citizen of Laredo, and one of the most prominent ranch men and land owners of this county.

 Hispanic Tradition (1769-1846)
From the discovery of San Francisco Bay by Capt. Gaspar de Portola in 1769 to the huge barbecue feasts of the wild strawberry fiestas held by Francisco Guerrero at Point Lobos every spring from 1836 into the 1850s, San Francisco has inherited a fondness for music, festivals, and the multicultural celebration of celebration that prevails.

 Chanticleer Guerre notes
His range of expression is easily as great as that of Victoria, and his profundity matches that of Morales, his teacher at Seville Cathedral, of whose richly endowed musical activity Guerrero was in charge for nearly 50 years – he was appointed in 1554, and remained until his death in 1599.
Scored for five voices, there are innumerable opportunities in the work for textural variety, of which Guerrero avails himself fully, reducing the number of voices to three in the expected places, to four at the Crucifixus, and expanding, magnificently, to eight in the second Agnus Dei.
Where Guerrero weaves motives from Janequin’s chanson into the fabric of his Mass, his younger, and nowadays far-better known, contemporary Victoria, in the double-choir Missa pro Victoria, built on the same model, makes full use of the opportunity for martial splendor.

Inspired by the streets of his hometown San Francisco, Soul Food Taqueria is a progression in many ways.
Not only is it more sonically advanced than his previous releases (although he admits that he's “still down with the fucked up 4 trk action”), but it also shows real maturity in his guitar playing and song writing.
Encapsulating Latin rhythms, stripped down folk, hip-hop, jazz, guitar-blues, minimal funk, soul and so much more, Guerrero's delicate jams are as spine tingling as ever, with Guerrero retaining the knack of sounding simple yet inventive.

~ Francisco Guerrero (Composer), Philippe Rogier (Composer), Antonio de Cabezón (Composer), Paul McCreesh (Composer), Cristóbal de Morales (Conductor), et al.
The Gabrieli Consort and players use authentic instruments to recreate the right sound, (cornetts, sackbuts shawms and recorders) and the Consort itself uses an adult male choir, with the top parts sung by falsettists and male altos.
The re-creation of a mass with plainchant liturgy, instrumental graduales and canciones etc, as interludes is very easy on the ear as a listening experience; with the best will in the world, and with the best music in the world, a mass sung without them can be seamless and lifelessly homophonic.
