Born in Cholulua in 1695, Carranco studied at Puebla and made his novitiate in Tepotzotlán.[1] In 1725, he trained at Nuestra Senora del Pilar de la Paz Airapi in La Paz to take over at Misión de Santiago de los Coras Aiñiní. Briefly, he served as a missionary at Todos los Santos, Baja California Sur.[2] In 1727, Carranco succeeded Father Ignacio Maria Napoli at Misión de Santiago.[3] He was killed in the Rebelión de los pericúes at the Misión de Santiago by the Pericúes in a manner similar to Nicolás Tamaral.[4]
