Jerónimo Carrión y Palacio (6 July 1804, Cariamanga – 5 May 1873) was President of Ecuador between 7 September 1865 and 6 November 1867.

His presidency demonstrated remarkable honesty in its procedures and loyalty to the principles of the government.

But he showed a lack of energy, which was abused by the adversaries of the current regime and those who still did not forgive the vigilance and severity of the previous one.

The Minister of Government, assumed all the functions of the regime, to the extent that the whole country noticed the lack of will of the President, although it was not quite so.

However, the administration was wise and developed in a climate of peace and relative tolerance.
