Biography
Diego de Gorospe e Irala was born in Puebla, New Spain (now in Mexico), in 1649 and ordained a priest in the Order of Preachers. On 1 June 1699, he was appointed during the papacy of Pope Innocent XII as Bishop of Nueva Segovia but did not arrive in the diocese until 1704. His appointment filled a long vacancy in the bishopric as his predecessor died in 1683.
On 22 January 1702, he was consecrated bishop by García Felipe de Legazpi y Velasco Altamirano y Albornoz, Bishop of Michoacán. He served as Bishop of Nueva Segovia until his death on 20 May 1715.
