Growing Up
Nicolas Tenorio Cerero was born in a town called Villalba del Alcor in Spain. When he was only five years old, he sadly lost his parents. After this, he moved to the city of Seville.
He went to the University of Seville from 1881 to 1886. There, he studied law to become a lawyer or judge. After finishing his studies, he worked as a journalist for a few years, writing for newspapers and magazines.
A Career in Law and History
Nicolas Tenorio Cerero became a judge, which is a person who makes decisions in a court of law. His first job as a judge was in 1897 in Havana, Cuba. At that time, Cuba was a Spanish colony, meaning it was controlled by Spain.
His work as a judge was stopped because of the Spanish–American War. This war led to Cuba becoming an independent country.
Returning to Spain
After the war, Nicolas came back to Spain. He decided to study history. He spent time researching old documents in important places like the General Archive of the Indies in Seville. This archive holds many historical records from Spain's past.
Even though he studied history, he also continued his law practice and journalism. Eventually, he went back to being a judge. He worked in many different parts of Spain, including Galicia, Murcia, Cadiz, Burgos, and Seville.
Other Important Roles
Nicolas Tenorio Cerero was also involved in cultural groups. From 1889 to 1893, he was a secretary and bookkeeper for the Cultural Club of Seville. In 1900, he was chosen to be part of the Royal Sevillian Academy of Good Letters, which is a respected group for writers and scholars.
He also worked as an editor for a magazine called The Sevillian Newscaster (El Noticiero Sevillano) starting in 1893. He wrote for other publications too, like The Future (El Porvenir).
Later Years
In October 1900, Nicolas moved from Seville to Viana do Bolo in Galicia for his second job as a judge. He worked there until 1906, then moved to Vilamartín de Valdeorras, also in Galicia.
In 1910, he moved to Mule in Murcia, and later worked in Cadiz. He even traveled to America as a fiscal Lieutenant, which is a type of legal official. He finished his career as a judge in Seville in 1917.
While working as a judge, he also spent a lot of time studying history. He wrote books about the medieval period in Seville, focusing on its laws and government. Nicolas Tenorio Cerero passed away in Seville in 1930.
