Miguel da Silveira Lorena
Miguel da Silveira Lorena († 1832 in Portuguese Timor ) was the governor of Portuguese Timor .
In April 1832 Lorena's predecessor in the office of Manuel Joaquim de Matos Góis died. A councilor (Conselho Governativo) took over the administration until Lieutenant Lorena arrived. But Lorena also died that same year. Again the Conselho Governativo took over, but a dispute broke out. Brother Vicente Ferreira Varela had the other two members of the council arrested and now ran the business alone until the new governor José Maria Marques (1834-1839) arrived in Dili.
