Do any of you in El Paso know if Chief Perjuin Granillo of the Tiguas is still alive?
I am told he has another name, this might be his Hispanic name.
I am told he is the only living person who can verify my father's heritage.
I'm told he has avoided all Alderetes for years because he feels responsible for the death of his best friend, my grandfather. He might think we want to kill him, but nothing is further from the truth. No one holds him responsible, the death was due to natural causes.
Marta Estrada at the El Paso Historical Society has tried to help me, but she says all her documents and files are in storage. By the time the library is open again, he may be dead, if he isn't already.
I believe there are pictures available of my ggrandfather, Benigno Alderete, perhaps at the Candelaria House, or in the library files. He was a major personage in his times.
