What did the administrators of secularized California missions do?
score:2
Accepted answer
The mission comisionados and mayordomos were appointed by the Monterey junta and by governors, principally Figueroa and Alvarado, or by the mission inspector Hartnell.
According to Carlos Salomon in "Pio Pico at Mission San Luis Rey", rules laid out by Figueroa specify that the administrator take the mission inventory, pay off its debts, distribute land and tools to emancipated mission neophytes, and manage the leftover land for the public benefit.
A number of the administrators found ways to enrich themselves using the assets they managed.
