The
latest information I have about my great father was that he was a big
land owner and rancher(cattle and horses) in Buenavista, Guimaras,
Philippines. He also donated 36 hectares of land to the Boystown and
Girlstown organization in the island. For details read the following
from my blog and FB conversation with Conchita Catague who grew up in
Buenavista, Guimaras.
Here's
an excerpt of my conversation with Conchita Catague of Buenavista,
Guimaras. Conchita's grandfather ( lolo Ambo) is the younger brother of
my Lolo Batol (Victoriano).
