Fortunato Zuazua Zertuche was born in Lampazos on 21 December 1890, of a distinguished local family. He fought for Madero in 1910 and against Orozco in 1912. In 1913 he was in Pablo González’ forces and collaborated with Lucio Blanco in taking Matamoros, Tamaulipas. He also joined Blanco in dividing out the Hacienda de Borregos. He then served under Cesáreo Castro and, as a loyal Carrrancista, fought Villismo, first with Francisco Murguía in the Bajío and Coahuila and then with Jacinto B. Treviño in Chihuahua. On 16 June 1915 he was made a General de brigada. He was commander of the garrison in Mexico City in 1920 when Carranza fled to Veracruz.
