© 2009 Armando Salas. ---When our Civil War ended in 1939 my father was at a prison camp at Cedeira, a beautiful village near Ortigueira, my hometown. Most of prisoners were fusilladed by Dictator General Franco's Army but my father was a survivor. After that, he lived with his uncle Manuel and cousin Thais at Ortigueira and also began to work in court of justice. Two years after he knew my mother and got married. Upper image: the beautiful house where my father lived with his uncle and cousin (2nd.floor). This building was recently restored. Bottom image: I have the original photo from 1934 at El Val. My father's uncle, Manuel Rodríguez Salas (standing) was secretary of the law court. The other man is judge Manuel Taboada Roca, Count of Borrajeiros.This judge passed away two years ago, at age 103 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ----- P.S.- My daughter Gloria says he looks like Harold Lloyd :-)
