Joaquin de Ortega y Prieto was born August 2, 1755 in Tordesillas (Valladoliad), Spain.1 He died in 1826 in Opelousas, St. Landry Parish, Louisiana2.  After a career in service to his country he settled in Opelousas with his family and raised cattle. Ortega entered military life and became 'Comisione Artillery' or 'Guardian Royal Military' in Fort Pensacola living inside the compound on the 1784 census with his wife and oldest child.
