Hello Jose -
Your posting is very interesting - specifically, your question at the end about the politician who was alledgedly assasinated. Please note, I did respond to an eariler thread, asking if anyone had any leads oninformation on my Great-Grandfather, Celedonio Ledesma and my Grandfather, Ricardo Ledesma - who were both "alledgedly" assisanted in the early 1940's - this is a mystery in our family.My great-grandfaher,Celedonio migrated, NOT to Mindanao, but to Luzon - Tarlac, Tarlac... could the story you heard be speaking of the same man?I heard that my great-grandfather was in politics, possibly an elected district mayor of Tarlac city or around those parts.My grandfather, Ricardo was said to have been with him (Celedonio) and was also alledgedly assasinated too.
My grandfather, Ricardo had (5) children: Avelino, Cecila, Ernesto(my father), Elenita, and Ruben.
I'm curious... what is your father's name? And do you have information on the names of your Grandfather's siblings?
From what I am told, we THINK that my Great-Grandfather had the following siblings:Julio, Jose, possibly a brother named Simon, and a sister nick-named Sha-bing.
Yes, a tradgey took place, years ago... I'm just hoping to find where I come from.
Hope to hear from you soon - I know it's been a long while since you've been in this forum - taking a chance that you or someone will respond.
Best,
