my grandma gave me this document where the whole family of my grandad (on his father's side) appears sort of as a primitive 'libro de familia' and now i know the names and birth dates of my great great grandparents and my great grandfather i need a moment

#my great grandparents were pedro justo nemesio born on december 19 1875 #and ana maría del carmen bruna born on october 6 1874 #and my great grandfather was pedro félix born on july 10 1901 #i even have the name of his godparents 🥲#also this makes me 💖💖💖 because my grandparents are called pedro and ana maría #so this cycle has always been like this huh #i would love to know the place they were born but this is a lot honestly #it's enough #it's all handwritten so i'm trying to descipher everything lol #also for some historical context #when my great great grandparents were born the first republic had just failed #the third carlist war was going on because it was the 19th century after all #alfonso xii was proclaimed king like 2 months after my great great grandmother was born #she literally was born when there was a political limbo in the country #oh and cuba puerto rico and the philipines were still part of spain #meanwhile when my great grandfather was born #roosevelt was proclaimed president of the usa #and alfonso xiii was king of spain #just lol
