José Francisco de San Martín (25 February 1778 – 17 August 1850) was an Argentine general and the prime leader of the successful struggle for independence from Spain of the southern nations of South America.
San Martín was born in the town of Yapeyú in the province of Corrientes, Argentina, then a Spanish colony (part of the Viceroyalty of the River Plate).

San Martin became a national hero in many South American countries, particularly in Argentina, where he also had strong personal ties, as he was born there, and enforced his ties by later marrying an Argentine.
San Martin appears to have always felt that he was tied to the country he was born.
San Martin started to prepare his plans, and by asking for reassignment to the governor-ship of Cuyo, which was located at the foot of the Andes in western Argentina, he was able to design his plans.

His attitude toward the indigenous peoples was positive: he described the Ohlone as "affable, generous, and not at all mistrustful." Moraga himself was praised for his humane and lenient treatment of his soldiers.
During his years as military leader in San Francisco, Moraga faced the challenges of hunger, scant supplies, inadequate funding, and unreliable support from the home government.
In an unusual gesture of honor, Moraga's remains were disinterred and moved to the sanctuary of the new mission church of San Francisco de Asís on April 8, 1791.
