Basilio Ramirez Soto (1858-1923)

In this photo Basilio is standing on the left. The other names in the photo are Alejandro DeLeon, Santos Romo and wife. I am assuming that Senor Romo and his wife are the ones that are sitting and Senor DeLeon is the one standing next to Basilio. Basilio was my great grandfather on my mother's paternal side of the family. He was married twice and my great grandmother, Concepcion Enriquez was his second wife. Basilio was a Mexican Methodist minister. Basilio was born in Laredo, Texas to Antonio Soto and Francisca Ramirez de Soto. The photo was taken on April 30, 1884 by Louis de Planque who was a well known photographer in the Corpus Christi area.
