Jos Mximo Rangel, whose initials appear at the end of this work, was a native of Santa Marinha do Zzere, Baio, born at an uncertain date, probably in the mid to late 1750s. Of noble birth, he was a longtime partisan of the liberal cause who fought against the French invasion in 1808, was involved with the Gomes Freire conspiracy of 1817 (a cousin was hanged), and was an enthusiastic partisan of the 1820 revolution. He followed a military career and also wrote poetry. Elected a deputy to the Constitutional Crtes in 1822, he served for three days as Minister of War in May of 1823 during the "Vilafrancada". On the return of D. Joo VI to Lisbon he withdrew from politics, serving as governor of the fort of So Joo de Foz. He was married to D. Maria Helena de Saldanha Castro Lorena e Daun, a relative of the Duque de Saldanha and lady-in-waiting to the Queen D. Carlota Joaquina. He was assassinated in 1828 after the coup of D. Miguel. *** Innocncio V, 70 refers only to the edition of Lisbon, 1822.
