Do you remember?

[edit]

I'm removing the 'Do you remember?' bit, not sure why it's there - KZF 16:37, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am his granddaughter. I was constantly with him till the end. My husband and two children also. We were with him at his 100th Birthday Party. I took him to Spain every summer and then picked him up, and we travelled together back to the United States. My daughter, is writing his biography, the way my grandfather told it to us. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wencesmc (talkcontribs) 04:47, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dates of his marriages?

[edit]

Does anyone know the dates of his marriages and why they ended? At first glance, it looks like the dates in parentheses are the dates of the marriages--and that he was a bigamist. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.217.224.5 (talk) 07:43, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, yeah, at first glance you see an overlap -- but getting away with bigamy for that long an overlap is unlikely enough that you dismiss that pretty quickly; but yes, there needs to be some clarification as to how and when the first marriage ended before the next one began. You can't really tell the way it is now.

I am his granddaughter, he was not a bigamist, his first wife was my grandmother, he married her in North Africa in 1922. His second wife he married in Lebanon in 1951 His family was not destitute like you say, that is a lack of respect. He was born in Peñaranda de Bracamonte, Province of Salamanca. His father also and his mother, my great grandmother was born in Cordobilla, near Salamanca. My name is Marcela Moreno. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.235.91.33 (talk) 10:28, 7 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Later refinements?

[edit]

When I took my children to see him in the 1980s he had simplified Johnny to simply a lipsticked hand and Pedro's box never opened in front to show a head. Can anyone confirm this?Jim Stinson (talk) 21:13, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

OOOPS! Senor Wences (in Netflix clips) used the Johnny costume and the bespectacled head of Pedro in his box as late as an appearance on the muppet show. Memory plays tricks.... Jim Stinson (talk) 22:00, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I enjoyed the trip down memory lane and wonder if anyone knows of any photos of Senior Wences with Johnny? Whiterabbittoo 15:07, 20 August 2007 (UTC) I am a member of his family, I revised his private life and it is all correct. I have many pictures of him, beign a close family member (descendant). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elsringert (talkcontribs) 06:19, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
