Today in Philippine Genealogy: Birth of Antonio Lacuesta in Manila

 


Antonio Lacuesta, born on September 2, 1912, in Manila, to Antonio Lacuesta and Candida Flores. Antonio Sr. was 26 years old and a native of Sta. Cruz, Manila, while Candida was 22 and from Samal, Bataan. Dr. Fernando Calderon from the Phils. General Hospital assisted in this birth.

And while the child is listed as illegitimate, the father's name is indicated in the record, clearly showing his acknowledgment of the child. This appears to be an early example of a father appearing in his child's birth record despite not married to the mother.
