FREJES, Francisco (fre-hes), Mexican historian, born in, Guadalajara; died in Zacatecas in 1845. He was a Franciscan friar in the convent of his native City, where he distinguished himself as a pulpit orator. His love of study caused him to obtain his transfer to the convent of Guadalupe, in Zacatecas, where he had the advantage of a valuable library containing many manuscripts of the time of the conquest. He was appointed chronicler of the convent in 1835, and in 1838 became its superior.

Here he finished his "Historia Breve de la Conquista de los Estados Independientes del Imperio Mejicano" (new ed., Guadalajara, 1878). He is a clear and impartial writer, and as some material, which never had become public, was at his command, his history may be considered the most authentic one. Frejes also published "Memoria Histórica de los Sucesos mas notables de la Conquista particular de Jalisco per los Españoles" (1842), and a pamphlet on education.
