Local Francisco Ruiz Marquez bought the house in the 1950s and lived there with his family of his seven children (one died as a baby) until he died in c.1975. The house and land was then divided between all of the children. His wife Francisca died in c.1990 in a local house. His granddaughters, Restabal supermarket owner Maria Jesus and Maria Angeles, a local singer ( who are sisters) who used to visit our house as children, remember a large pine tree at the front and lots of irises in the garden, which we have replanted. The house was sold to Mirasur Architects in Restabal, who sold it to us. We are currently researching to get more information on the history and old photos of the house.
