Very cool story. I wonder if the plantation is still there. Perhaps you even have some second cousins there as well?Welcome. My great uncle moved to Mindanao over a century ago and started up a plantation there.
Lost the plantation when the Japanese invaded and, at the conclusion of the war, His estate received compensation for it. He was an ex-military man who was re-comissioned and put in charge of guerrilla forces on the island. Was killed about 4 days before the war ended.Very cool story.
