Forefathers

It has been a month now since my December 2009 appointment as shrine curator. I practically live with a lot artifacts including vintage photos in every nook and cranny of the Aguinaldo Shrine in Kawit, Cavite. Just love old pics especially if they are about family and old family friends. Here are two which I am helping preserve for posterity.

Photo of Emilio Aguinaldo, my greatgrandfather (Lolo Miong).Taken in the 1940s in the old garden of his home which now is the Aguinaldo Shrine.

Clockwise, Miguel Aguinaldo, our grandfather (Lolo Miguel) and eldest son of Emilio Aguinaldo, Emilio Aguinaldo, and Felicidad Aguinaldo, our great grandaunt (Lola Neneng). Photo was taken in the 1900s.
