Miguel was born in 1753, the second child out of the eleven of an estate administrator by the name Don CristÃ³bal Hidalgo y Costilla. Together with his elder brother, they attended a school in their home which was operated by the Jesuits and decided to take up priesthood.
Independence Day celebrates the day Miguel Hidalgo is believed to have made the cry of independence (El Grito de la Independencia) in the town of Dolores, in the north-central part of the Mexican state of Guanajuato. Hidalgo was one of the nationâs leaders during the War of Independence in Mexico. There is no scholarly agreement on what was exactly said by Hidalgo, but his speech, also known as the cry of Dolores (el Grito de Dolores), was made on September 16, 1810 to motivate people to revolt against the Spanish regime.
