He encouraged the conquest and settlement of N Mexico, particularly under Jos? de Escand?n. His son, Juan Vicente G?emes Pacheco de Padilla, conde de Revilla Gigedo, 1740?99, b. Havana, was viceroy of New Spain (1789?94). He gave to the viceroyalty one of the finest administrations of the colonial era. He put the new administrative system of intendancies into working order, improved Mexico City, sent out an expedition that carried the Spanish territorial claims N of the California coast, and brought the revenues of the viceroyalty to their highest point. looks to me like two words 73 de Karl N1DL -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Tony Cash Sent: Monday, October 30, 2006 9:02 PM To: dxbase Subject: [Dxbase] Revillagigedo is misspelled Anybody else notice that Revillagigedo is misspelled in DXBase 2007 in both the country prefix database and the IOTA database? DXBase has it as Revilla Gigedo and it should be Revillagigedo in the country database and Revillagigedo Islands in the IOTA database. 73 de Tony, KD4K My Radio web site http://home.adelphia.net/~tonycash/kd4k/radio.html My Weather Web Site http://home.adelphia.net/~tonycash Sawnee Mountain Repeater Web Site http://www.sawneemtn.org/ -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
