Feliciano Canaveris (1813–1843) was an Argentine military officer, who participated in the Argentine and Uruguayan Civil War.[1] He was separated from the Confederate Army in 1835,[2] and forced to go into exile in Montevideo in 1839, where he joined the ranks of the armies of Juan Lavalle and Fructuoso Rivera in the Banda Oriental.[3]
He died assassinated in January 1843 near the city of Tacuarembó, Uruguay. His capture and subsequent murder was attributed to General Manuel Oribe.[4]
Biography[edit]
He was born in Buenos Aires, the son of José Canaveris and Agustina Denis, belonging to a distinguished patrician family. He was baptized on June 8, 1813 by Manuel Erézcano, presbyter of the Cathedral of Buenos Aires, being his godmother his aunt Encarnación Canaveris.[5]
He completed his elementary studies in Buenos Aires, and was graduated from the Argentine Navy on October 2, 1833, serving as Second-lieutenant of artillery in the Compañía de Artillería de Mar,[6] a Naval artillery corps created by decree on December 1, 1830.[7] He served for two years in the Army of the Argentine Confederation until he was separated by decree of Juan Manuel de Rosas on April 16, 1835.[8] In 1840 Rosas issued an arrest warrant against him for which he had to leave Buenos Aires.[9]
He was financially assisted after his exile in Montevideo, and was incorporated into the Army of Fructuoso Rivera in 1839.[10] He took an active part during the Guerra Grande in the Banda Oriental, which earned him promotion to the rank of captain in 1840.
Feliciano Canaveris was ambushed and arrested by a group of Confederate soldiers near Tacuarembó, Uruguay,[11] and executed by order of Manuel Oribe on January 1843.[12] His persecution and subsequent murder is cited in Rosas y sus opositores, a history book published by the journalist José Rivera Indarte.[13]
His cousin Eustaquio Canaveris Rodríguez, a pulper who had served in the Batallón de Voluntarios Rebajados de Buenos Aires, was tried and sentenced to death as a secondary participant in the crime of a parish priest of federal tendency, in an incident that occurred in 1842 in the town of San Miguel del Monte.[14]
