Biography

José Millán de Poblete was born in Mexico in 1635,[4] the nephew of Miguel Millán de Poblete, Archbishop of Manila.[5] On 27 May 1675, he was appointed during the papacy of Pope Clement X as Bishop of Nueva Segovia.[1][4] Records indicate that although he was less than 50 when appointed, he only served a short period and died before he was consecrated.[4][5] The next bishop of record is Francisco Pizaro de Orellana who was selected in 1680.[6]

The vigorous age at which this dignity came to him (for he was not yet fifty) did not enable him to enjoy it [long]; for he lived very few years in the government of that church, not long enough to reach his consecration—with general regret in these islands at having lost a grand prelate, heir to the many virtues of his uncle."
