Last year we had the bones of Lola, Lolo and my Tita Cecile, who never made it past infancy to the Ostuary behind the Batangas Basilica in Batangas City.  They had not completed the fountain then but it’s a lovely place.

Last year we had the bones of Lola Feling, and Lolo Goyo moved from the Old cemetary to the Ostuary behind the Batangas Basilica in Batangas City. They had not completed the fountain then but it’s a lovely place.

Hold your mouse over the names on the tombstones. It will either pull up a photo of the individual or a photo of their families. Holding your mouse over most of the photos will give you alternate text showing names of children, mostly on the women.

Victoriano Limjoco buried in Candaba

Balbino Limjoco, son of Santiago with his other “wife” Olimpia.

Lolo Yago used to travel to Candaba, Pampanga where it is presumed he traded in rice and, or had rice mills.  He sired two other families there, one with Olimpia Magsilang and one with one of their maids.

Olympia Limjoco and her daughter Patria. At the Limjoco Mausoleum in Candaba, Pampanga.

Victoriano Limjoco is in the Limjoco Mausoleum of Balbino Limjoco, but no one could tell me who Victoria Limjoco was, and there was no date of death or birth.

Although married to Hospicia with whom he lived most of the time in Lian Batangas, he had 3 children with Olimpia.  Curiously, Hospicia did not have children with Santiago those two years. Therefore, it was discovered or surmised that Balbino Magsilang Limjoco, was my grand father’s half brother.

Ever since I was a child I had heard that Lolo Santiago had another family in Pampanga, from my Lola Feling. Last Nov. 2000 I had the opportunity to meet with the Candaba, Pampanga Branch.  And a warmer reception could not have been had anywhere by any standards!

I was taken to the family vaults by Charee, my third cousin on Balbino’s side and his granddaughter. We found Balbinos tomb as well as his mother, Lola Olimpia’s etc. But we could not find the head of their clan, our great grandfather, Santiago’s tomb.  It was suspected that the reason we could not find him in Candaba is that the remains of Lolo Santiago are in Lian, as pictured above, with his legal wife Hospicia.

Thus the tale of Lolo’s deeds were discovered. Many of the Candaba clan still have memories of Lolo Santiago, yet none of the Batangas clan can give me stories of Lolo Santiago.

Anyway that is the tale as it has unraveled from the many Emails I received from this branch and from my own investigative visit to the Candaba Limjoco’s mausoleums.
