On a personal note, my research started only a few Streets of Havana years ago. At that time, I had no idea where to turn to find Cuban genealogical information. I remember think- ing that securing data from Cuba would be next to Cementerio Espada Project impossible. Then I met a few people online who were also researching Cuba. I was not alone! After spending Diario de la Marina: time emailing each other, we decided to finally meet and share our findings. Thus was born the Cuban Septiembre 1899 Genealogy Club! In the past couple of years or so, we can be proud of several accomplishments: the CGC's Cuban Newspapers incorporation as a non-profit organization, a website on Microfilm dedicated to our club, and hosting two very interesting and informative genealogical conferences.

  • MARTYRS ALL: the Hero of Key West and the Inocentes by Jose B
    MARTYRS ALL: The Hero Of Key West And The Inocentes by JosE B. FERNANDEZ AND JERRELL H. SHOFNER* In November, 1971, a group of youthful Cuban expatriates in Miami celebrated a century-old Cuban holiday by placing shrouded caskets at prominent places in the United States. The caskets symbolized eight in- nocent students who were executed by a weak Spanish government in November, 1871, to appease the peninsulares. These were an extremist group of reactionaries whose strength was probably greater than that of the Spanish colonial government of Cuba during the ten-year revolution which gripped the island after 1868. It was fitting that the 100th anni- versary of the executions be celebrated in the United States since the events leading to the incident began there. There has always been a close relationship between South Florida and Cuba and not only because early American leaders thought the island would eventually be annexed to the United States. In the 19th century, trade was so extensive between the Gulf coastal ports of the United States and Cuba that Key West was the hub of an extensive trading area. Steam- ship lines plying between New Orleans and Havana regularly carried car- goes from both ports to Key West where they were reloaded on vessels operating out of the Atlantic coastal ports. Business partnerships frequently had offices in Havana and Key West or other United States ports. Trade and transportation as well as geographic affinity contributed to extensive social and cultural ties between the two islands off the Florida mainland. Labor disputes in the Cuban tobacco industry and growing resistance to Spanish rule in the late 1860's caused Vicente Martinez Ybor, a major cigar manufacturer, to move his factories to Key West in 1868.

TEXT The Parallel Utopia. Dreamt Cities in Cuba (1980-1993) Iván de la Nuez An unusual and contradictory project took place in Cuba between 1980 and 1993: the creation of a Western architecture without a market, the launching into orbit of a collective utopia ignored by the socialist State, the activation of a movement that began as criticism of the official urban planning of the time. And it is back in the spotlight today like the sword of Damocles hanging over the constructions of State capitalism in sight.

  • The History of Cuba Vol. 3
    The History Of Cuba Vol. 3 By Willis Fletcher Johnson THE HISTORY OF CUBA CHAPTER I THE revolutionary era in Cuban history had its rise amid circumstances of both political and commercial dissatisfaction and protest, and it is by no means impossible nor even improbable that the latter form of discontent was the more potent of the two. The commercial and industrial development of the island, despite its almost incredibly opulent resources, had been very slow, because handicapped by selfish and sordid misgovernment. The typical attitude of the Peninsular government and its agents in Cuba had been to use and to exploit the island for the sole benefit of Spain, and not to permit other nations to enter in competition. Other countries, in fact, so great was the secrecy maintained with regard to Cuba, knew but little of the vast wealth contained in this small space of land. Consequently the island was developed in accordance with the wishes, needs, and potentialities of Spain and with one other point of view. Cuba was never exploited by Spain for all its worth, and indeed there seems to be doubt as to whether Spain ever grasped in full the future possibilities of the island. Certain it is that she never actually realized them. And the loss was in consequence as great to Spain as it was to Cuba. For had Spain allowed herself to lose sight of the richness of present extortions and aided Cuba to develop her resources for the future, the whole story would have been far different. But the people of the United States were beginning to recognize Cuba's possibilities.

Ese recinto funerario inicial, ya desaparecido, fue realizado por el arquitecto francés Étienne-Sulpice Hallet, figura que introdujo el neoclasicismo dentro de la arquitectura habanera. Palabras clave: Cementerio General, Arquitectura, Neoclasicismo, Ilustración, Obispo Espada Abstract: The history of funerary architecture in Havana began with the construction of the General Cemetery (1806), promoted by the bishop Juan José Díaz de Espada, the first grave- yard built in Spanish America after the Royal Warrant of Carlos III dated on the third of April of 1787, which obliged the city councils to build local necropolis in sites far from the urban areas. Thus, the tradition of burying in churches and convents ended. This former funerary area, which nowadays has disappeared, was built by the French architect Étienne-Sulpice Hal- let. He introduced Neoclassicism in Cuban architecture.

The work commemorated the site of a symbolic ceiba tree, under which the Spanish conquistadors established Havana in the sixteenth century according to eighteenth-century sources. The colonial press corroborated this narrative and hailed the memorial as “the“the ultimateultimate proofproof of of [the [the city’s] city’s] reined reined loyalty loyalty and and of ofits itsneve never contradictedcontradicted patriotism.”1 Cuban military engineer José María de la Torre designed a classicizing building, known as El Templete, to house three history paintings visually narrating the foundational story of the site (Figure 1).
