Island, New York, on 11 April, and got to Havana on 18 April. He lived at Consulado

This is where his son Francisco LAGOS GRACIANI was born in October 1908. He

on 12 Dec. 1909. He lived at San Nicolás, 1 in Havana, Cuba in 1912.44 He visited on 12 Nov 1914 in
New York, NY, USA.100
Arrived from Barcelona with his wife and her youngest daughter Isabel to visit
his brother and his family, living at 344 E. 85th Street.
He was a «contador» (accountant) at the Compañía Eléctrica
Santiago in Santiago, Cuba in 1918.101
We know he was at this position in 1918 because of a 21 September newsclipping
brought back by Gregorio LAGOS ESCALONA, who visited Cuba at that time. This
occupation appears to have lasted several years.
He visited on 4 Oct 1922 in Paterson, Passaic, NJ, USA. He was
living in 1924 in Paterson, Passaic, NJ, USA.102 This, according to the ship manifest of his and Victorina's
trip from Havana on 7 April 1924. He lived in 1927/28 in Paterson, Passaic,
NJ, USA. Manuel and Victorina lived first at Oak Street, then Madison
Street. (This was while the Lagos family was living at 922 22nd Street.) He
shot himself in an unsuccessful attempt to commit suicide about Aug 1934 in Havana,
Cuba.32 His brother Antonio,
who visited him shortly afterwards, noted that the cause of this misfortune "looked
like Betty Boop." He lived with his brother Antonio and family for a time
between 1936 and 1939 in Paterson, Passaic, NJ, USA.32 The exact time period is not clear, but the total time
was probably about a year or so. This was when the family was living at 129
Lenox Avenue.
He was a «juez de carrera caballo en el Hipódromo de Marianao»
in Havana, Cuba about 1950.103
He was a judge at the Marianao race track in Havana. 1950 is an estimate of
one of the many years that he was employed there. He lived in the Hotel New
York for several years between 1950 and 1960 in Havana, Cuba.103 He was living here when he died. He died on 26 Jul
1960 in Havana, Cuba.104
He was buried on 27 Jul 1960 in Havana, Cuba.105 Buried in Colón Cemetery. He was exhumed and
placed in an ossuary on 17 Jan 1964 in Havana, Cuba106,107 A description
of this curious Cuban tradition may be found in "Your Man in Havana",
written by Emil SIGNES in 1999. He was recorded as resident with a Dr. Muin
in Santiago, Cuba. | 6 | iii. | Antonio [Papa] LAGOS TOLEDO. | | iv. | José LAGOS
TOLEDO **108 was born
on 28 Sep 1882 in Periana, Málaga, Spain.108,109 Full
name: José de la Santísima Trinidad. Nació en la casa de sus
padres en la Calle del Horno. He died before 30 Sep 1886.28,110 No one
in our family knew that there ever was a José LAGOS TOLEDO until I discovered
his birth certificate in the Periana Civil Register in Nov 1999. Writing in
Periana on 30 Sept 1886, Manuel MÚÑOZ FRIAS, an uncle of Francisco
LAGOS MUÑOZ as well as a parish priest, wrote "Certifico que D. Francisco
Lagos Muñoz de su legítima matrimonio con Dª Maria Toledo Ruiz,
tiene cuatro hijos [Dolores, Manuel, Antonio, Francisco] . . . " which leads
me to believe that José must have died by then. In addition, not having
found a death certificate in Periana leads me to believe he probably died in
Madrid, to which the family moved around 1885. -- Emil SIGNES.

Mª de
las Mercedes LAGOS TOLEDO **113,114 was born on 8 Jan 1892 in Madrid,
Spain.114 She lived C
/ Encomiendas, 15 - 2o izquierda in Madrid, Spain in 1895.114 She died on 15 Sep 1906 in Madrid, Spain.52,113 Died
of tuberculosis. According to Antonio LAGOS TOLEDO, his brother Manuel was afraid
to touch Mercedes for fear of contracting tuberculosis (both parents had already
died from it), and would tap her with his cane when they went to visit her in
the sanatorium.
| | viii. | Isidro
LAGOS TOLEDO * was born on 1 Jan 1897 in Madrid, Spain.115 Manuela and Isidro are two heretofore (1999) unknown
children of Francisco LAGOS MUÑOZ AND María Carmen TOLEDO RUIZ. They
are mentioned on Frasquito's 1900 death certificate but not Mariquita's 1903
death certificate, leading me to believe they died between these two dates (although
in many cases, children who died young seem to be listed on death certificates
such as these). As no birth or death certificates were found in Periana, they
most likely were born and died in Madrid (after 1884). -- Emil SIGNES
