Maria del Rosario Muñoz Velarde

Randy just sent me this cool picture of Mama Concha's mother, Maria del Rosario Muñoz Velarde:

Maria del Rosario Munoz Velarde, Mama Concha's mother

The man in the upper right corner is Mama Concha's brother, Antonio Aguilar Muñ. I have it written down somewhere that he wanted to be a bullfighter and that he died in an accident but I don't know how I knew that. Anyone have any other clues?

Thanks Randy!

I'm also posting (finally!) what I think is another picture of the same woman, perhaps earlier? This one came from Margaret Castro Dambley:

Rosario Munoz, 1930back of postcard

The inscription on the back says "Dedico este recuerdo a mi queridísima nieta Rosario, su abuela, Rosario Muñoz, 17/3/30", which, loose translated, says "I dedicate this remembrance to my beloved granddaughter, Rosario. From her grandmother, Rosario Muñoz, March 17, 1930."

What I don't know is who the younger woman in the photograph is. Perhaps the granddaughter Rosario? Still in Spain?

Liz: Thanks for the pictures you posted. In the picture of Maria, the top picture, Seems that my mother had a resemblence to her. At least that's how I see it.
