On 5 November 1811, the 1811 Independence Movement of San Salvador overthrew Gutiérrez y Ulloa and José Mariano Batres y Asturias replaced him as interim intendant. Batres y Asturias was replaced by Colonel José Alejandro de Aycinena on 3 December 1811. Aycinena suppressed remnants of the independence movement and resigned in 1812 in favor of José María Peinado y Pezonarte. Peinado y Pezonarte governed San Salvador until he was replaced by José Méndez de Quiroga during the 1814 Independence Movement. He was in office until 1817 when he was succeeded by two interim intendants: Juan Miguel de Bustamante, who served from 1817 to 1818, and Simón Gutiérrez, who only served in 1818.
