I was checking the information from my mother and what i found out while digging up some genealogical information. Mom saw Justina a couple of times, when she visited Cuba. She did not meet her father who died in 1911, if i am not mistaken. The story says that he had gone to some medical baths, i think at San Antonio de Los Baños or Elguea and drown while swimming there. >From what i have seen in the books, he was quite an important figures, as he became the chief of the army after 1901. He had been a general of the Ejercito Libertador. There are some short biographies I can dig up. I don't remember exactly where he was born, but it was in Las Villas. His second surname was Consuegra. His family had been in the area already for over 200 years before his birth, at Santa Clara and Remedios. It is mentioned in Familias Cubanas but not described directly. There are almost just enough information to put together a tree.
