Abstract

This article analyzes the trajectory of a group of Spanish emigrants who, arriving in Mexico in the second half of the 19th century, contributed to the economic development of the host country. Despite the many difficulties they encountered upon their arrival, they were able to take advantage of the opportunities offered by the Mexican Government and many of them achieved a remarkable position in the economic, political and social environment; some of them returned to their place of origin when they had already generated in the country a substantial fortune and had achieved good social position.
