Archbishop Jose Ma. Cuenco and Spain's Generalissimo Franco

 THE ARCHBISHOP AND THE DICTATOR-GENERAL

I found this old picture of my grand-uncle, Archbishop Jose Ma. Cuenco of Jaro, Iloilo with General Francisco Franco of Spain. Jose Ma. Cuenco was the older brother of my maternal grandfather, Senator Mariano Cuenco. I'm guessing this black and white photo was taken in the 1960s but it could have been in the 1950s as well.  They both had age then.



Here's a link with more information about Franco http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francisco_Franco
