Calixto García : ウィキペディア英語版 | Calixto García
Calixto García Iñiguez (August 4, 1839 – December 11, 1898) was a general in three Cuban uprisings, part of the Cuban War for Independence: Ten Years' War, the Little War and the War of 1895, itself sometimes called the Cuban War for Independence, which bled into the Spanish–American War, ultimately resulting in national independence for Cuba. ==Ancestry and progeny== García was born in Holguín to parents of Cuban ''Criollo'' descent; his maternal surname Iñíguez, indicates descendence from Iñigo Arista, a Basque King whose forces are referred to as demons in the "Song of Roland". He was a large, strong, educated man with a short fuse. García was the grandson of Calixto García de Luna e Izquierdo, who had fought in the Battle of Carabobo in 1821 during Venezuelan War of Independence. His grandmother was Maria de los Angeles Gonzalez, said to be the daughter of a Cacique Chief from Valencia, Venezuela. His grandfather (who had dropped the aristocratic "de Luna" upon taking refuge in Cuba) had been jailed on March 18, 1837 for demanding emancipation of slaves, constitutional freedom for all, and allegedly trying to hang a priest who opposed him. As befitted a man of importance of that time, Calixto had a wife, Isabel Velez Cabrera, and a good number of mistresses; these women gave birth to many children both legitimate (about 7) and illegitimate (at least six, each to a different woman). A number of his sons, most notable Carlos García Velez〔(Infos at the Cuban Genealogy Center website )〕〔 (Article ) on ''Granma''〕 and Calixto Enamorado,〔(Infos on the Spanish American War Centennial website )〕 fought in his armies.
