Two times he served as chief of state of El Salvador (1829-30 and 1830-32). Cornejo was born in 1788 to Jos\u00E9 Mar\u00EDa Cornejo and Jacoba Merino. He married Nicolasa de Lezaca. In Guatemala he studied philosophy, obtaining a diploma on January 14, 1809. Later he studied canon law, but without graduating, and after that civil law, which he also did not finish. He was in Guatemala when the provinces of Central America approved inclusion into the Mexican Empire of Agust\u00EDn de Iturbide. Because Cornejo opposed this union, he was sent to prison. He was freed in June 1822, and returned to El Salvador. He was a deputy to the state congress in 1826, 1827 and 1828, when El Salvador was part of the Federal Republic of Central America. Attaining considerable fame, he also became mayor of San Vicente and permanent councilman. When elections for chief of state were convoked among the towns, Cornejo was the winner. He took possession of the government (still a state within the federation) on January 30, 1829 and governed for a little more than a year, to February 16, 1830. He served a second term from December 4, 1830 to April 3, 1832. Federal President Francisco Moraz\u00E1n transferred the capital of the Federation from Guatemala City to San Salvador in December 1831, but because of opposition from Cornejo (who opposed the federation), Moraz\u00E1n was forced to leave San Salvador on January 6, 1832. He went to Honduras, where he awaited the arrival of more troops from Nicaragua to reenter El Salvador. Together with Manuel Jos\u00E9 Arce Cornejo proclaimed the separation of El Salvador from the Union in 1832. On March 17 of that year the Salvadoran town of Chalatenango pronounced against Cornejo and in favor of the federal government. The town of Metap\u00E1n did likewise. Moraz\u00E1n attacked San Miguel, El Salvador on February 28, 1832. On March 14, 1832 in the Battle of Jocoro, he defeated Cornejo. On March 28 he defeated him again at San Salvador. Cornejo was taken prisoner and Moraz\u00E1n took over direct control of El Salvador. He called elections for a constituent assembly, which subsequently elected Mariano Prado chief of state and Joaqu\u00EDn de San Mart\u00EDn vice chief of state."@en , "Jos\u00E9 Mar\u00EDa Cornejo gobern\u00F3 la Rep\u00FAblica de El Salvador como Jefe Supremo del 30 de enero de 1829 al 16 de febrero de 1830 y del 4 de Diciembre de 1830 al 3 de abril de 1832."@es , "Jos\u00E9 Mar\u00EDa Cornejo Merino y Guevara war zwei Mal Supremo Director der Provinz El Salvador in der Zentralamerikanischen Konf\u00F6deration ."@de ; rdfs:comment "Jos\u00E9 Mar\u00EDa Cornejo Merino y Guevara war zwei Mal Supremo Director der Provinz El Salvador in der Zentralamerikanischen Konf\u00F6deration ."@de , "Jos\u00E9 Mar\u00EDa Cornejo gobern\u00F3 la Rep\u00FAblica de El Salvador como Jefe Supremo del 30 de enero de 1829 al 16 de febrero de 1830 y del 4 de Diciembre de 1830 al 3 de abril de 1832."@es , "Jos\u00E9 Mar\u00EDa Cornejo Merino y Guevara was a Salvadoran politician.
