• Notes

  Ben was 6 months old when He moved to Tela, Atlantida. He was taken by his aunt Felicia Ogaldez Hernandez to meet with his parents who were already there. Don Justo had moved to Tela ahead of his wife when she was pregnant. She gave birth to Ben Flores in Dangriga, Belize and then went after her husband to Tela where some of the children were born: Evarista, Justo Jr., and Simeón (Indio). Ben remembered an older man "Jaiba" and his wife "tia Sana" who lived by the air strip in La Curva, Tela, Honduras. The "Jaiva" that Ben remembered happens to be Francisco Harry and Ruben's grandfather. Ben Flores (Son of Don Justo) related this information to Ruben Reyes on 7/27/2010 in Los Angeles, California, USA.
