His father José Lamamié de Clairac y Tirado had been a colonel at the Royal Army and fought on the Northern campaign of the Napoleonic Wars under Pedro Caro y Sureda.

[1] His father moved to Madrid and left him at Salamanca under his family guardianship, considering his infirm health and few expectations of survival were unfit for travelling.

He lived with his aunt María Trespalacios and his uncle Manuel Mercado Dusmet, who had been a guerrilla fighter at the Spanish Independence War under Julián Sánchez.

[1] After the Revolution of 1868 he joined the Carlist army and during the Sexenio Revolucionario he was designated as subcomisario regio of the Salamanca province by pretender Carlos VII.

He ran as a counter-revolutionary candidate for Salamanca at the 1869 Spanish general election despite the opposition of the governor of the province, joining the formula of cardinal Miguel García Cuesta, Antonio Aparisi y Guijarro, León Carbonero y Sol, Gaspar Escudero and Nicolás Gallego Sevillano.

He managed to rise 93000 signatures from 381 towns in Salamanca against religious freedom, a merit for which he was chosen as president of the provincial directory of the Association the 7th July 1869.

[5] In 1901 he joined the Catholic Anti-Liberal League of Salamanca and campaigned intensely for Juan Antonio Sánchez del Campo, who would be elected a deputy by the Integrists in June of the same year.

In 1908 he travelled to Rome in representation of the party and offered Pope Pius X to dissolve the organization and El Siglo Futuro if he considered it to be prejudicial for the situation of the Catholic Church in Spain.

He still did not abandon politics and supported Integrist Mariano Arenillas Sáinz for his successful deputy candidacy, ending with the republican-socialist majority in the municipality.
