"When I hear people say that money seldom brings happiness, they forget to add the word "obsession" before "money." Heck, nobody can survive in this modern world without money, let alone be happy." ― Franklin H. Maletsky

Ramon Gaganting Cruz

Ramon Gaganting Cruz was born sometime in the late 1860's in Zamboanga City, Philippines. His mother was a native filipina woman and his father was a spaniard. Some members of the family claimed that his father was actually a spanish friar.

He died in the late 1960's. According to most folks, Ramon Gaganting Cruz lived to a ripe old age of 102.

He lived all over the Zamboanga Peninsula of the Philippines and even in the island of Basilan where he also had a family.

Ramon G. Cruz supposedly had 13 wives and about 33 children. Only 4 of his wives are recorded here. R.G. Cruz was never with two wives at the same time. He would live with one wife and children then later move on. This attitude of divorcing first and moving on created a peaceful relationship amongst the multitude of half-brothers/sisters. The families lived in peace and to this date, his descendants are still civil, amicable and friendly.
