Daniel Angelo Marras was a Jesuit missionary in New Spain.

Biographies

Marras was born in Cagliari, Sardinia.[1]

In 1656, Marras was assigned to Mission San José de Mátape, where he founded a school for the religious education of native converts.[2] Over the course of his tenure, Marras made Mátape into a commercial hotspot,[3] and established cattle ranching in Sonora.[4] Marras was also heavily involved in mining operations in Mátape, despite Jesuit rules forbidding such involvement. Under his management, two mines were established, manned by African slaves, and a refinery was founded to process the resulting ore.[2]

As of 1685, Marras was vice provincial of the Jesuits in New Spain.[4] He died in Mexico in 1689.[5]
