Brick Wall
« on: Thursday 04 December 14 18:39 GMT (UK) »
Hi guys,

i got the marriage cert for Justo and now have his parents names, though still VERY stuck.

As for Consuelo (the bride) got her fathers name, well think i have not sure if i read it correctly.

Anyway

Consuelo Pastor
Birth 1 Sep 1889 in Vigo, Pontevedra, Spain
Death Jun 1970 in Widnes, Lancashire, England

Father: Vincente Pastor (i think?)

Justo Montes
Birth 3 Apr 1893 in Honduras
Death 22 Sep 1921 in Queens, New York, USA????

Father: Victoriano Montes???
Mother Catarina Romero ????

Please could you help me with their siblings and their parents. PLEASE. I know all facts related to Consuelo other than siblings and parents.

Sometimes, searching on that site with just the parents' names filled in can yield some good results.   :)

Hi there,

In the baptism cert the name of the godfather is listed too. Do you know how he is related?

Due to the surnames here in Spain, if you knew the complete name of Consuelo, or her father you could go back another generation. Do you have her morhers name? Where did her parents die? In Spain?

Have you contacted anyone in Vigo? Let me know if I can help you out...

Frost (Suffolk)
Farrar (Yorkshire)
La Favor/Lefebvre (Quebec)

Hi,

No idea who the godfather is, what was the name? Refresh me.
No mothers name, i wish. I am guessing they did die in Spain as i have been told John Reilly who married Consuelo after Justo, brought her over with him after he was fighting in the Spanish Civil War

Not contacted anyone in Vigo i wouldn't know who. Help would be so so so much appreciated.

Also, today we was given a photo of a woman on the back it says this, it could be  clue:

It looks like its signed by a woman named Amor (although Amor also means love, but here looks like a signature).

Basically a photo dedicated to her godmother.  June 12, 1930... Before the civil war.

Well if 1930 is before the civil war than that story about how they met is a load of BS :P

as John Reilly and Consulo married 1921
