BIOGRAPHY: Maria spoke French but would only speak Spanish if she didn't want you to know what she was saying. If she was hiding something, or talking about something personal, she would say it in spanish so the children wouldn't understand.
Maria would be sitting by the fireplace with a big apron on with a pocket full of pecans while dipping tobacco but she would never dip in front of anyone. Unfortunately, all of the kids would have to line up to kiss her when they arrived, dredding that her mouth would smell of dipping tobacco. They would recall seeing the dip juice run down the sides of her mouth. Maria wore a long dress and would wipe her mouth on it. She would pretend to wide dust from her dress but it was leftover tobacco.
BIRTH: Records show his parents as being the sponsors.
Baptism: Sponors were Cristoval Falcon and Josefa Denis
