Pedro Luro (March 10, 1820, in Gamarthe, France – February 28, 1890, in Cannes, France), immigrated to Argentina in 1837 and worked in a 'saladero,' a manufacturing facility designed to produce salted and dried meat, as a rural peasant and passenger.

He was a proponent of Mar del Plata and of transitioning the territory of La Pampa into a province.

Furthermore, he colonized lands in the middle and south of the Buenos Aires province until the Río Negro.

His family composed of his wife and ten children.

He began working in the rural parts of Argentina planting trees, where he was paid in land.
