The Piquero Clan is a well-known family in Candijay, Bohol, Philippines, with a history that spans many generations. Most of the Piqueros in Candijay today are directly descended from Esteban Piquero and Bernarda Goromora, who are considered the main ancestors of the family in this town. Their roots connect the family to Spanish ancestry, making the Piquero Clan proud of its heritage, which blends European traditions with the culture of Bohol.
The Beginning in Candijay
[edit]Esteban Piquero and Bernarda Goromora settled in Candijay, where they built their family and became the foundation of the Piquero name in the town. They were hardworking, family-oriented, and known for their strictness. This trait of being strict has been passed down through generations, and it remains a defining feature of the Piquero Clan. They are known for maintaining strong discipline and upholding high standards in both their personal and family lives.
Along with their strict nature, greed has also been a characteristic of some family members. While this trait has sometimes led to challenges, it has also driven the Piquero Clan to achieve success in various fields. This focus on self-interest has encouraged the family to work hard and seek prosperity, although it has occasionally led to tension within the family over material matters.
A War Hero in the Family: Rosalio Amora Piquero
[edit]Among the many remarkable members of the Piquero family is Rosalio Amora Piquero, a World War II veteran and the great-grandson of Esteban Piquero and Bernarda Goromora. Rosalio proudly served in the war, earning recognition for his bravery and dedication to his country. He was a member of the V.D. (Veteranong ng Digmaan) and is remembered for his courageous contributions during one of the most challenging times in history. His service is a point of pride for the Piquero Clan, and his story continues to inspire future generations.
Family Reunions: Honoring the Past and Celebrating the Present§
[edit]The Piquero family is known for its tradition of holding reunions. In the early years, these reunions were held in honor of Esteban Piquero and Bernarda Goromora. These gatherings were a way for the family to come together, share meals, tell stories, and remember their ancestors.
As the family grew larger and more branches emerged, the descendants of Fabian Piquero and Natividad Amora took the lead in organizing reunions. Their efforts kept the tradition alive, especially when other branches of the family were not as active in holding gatherings.
Now, the Piquero Clan Grand Reunion is celebrated every two years. These reunions are big events where relatives come from all over the Philippines and even abroad. They are a time for reconnecting, enjoying each other’s company, and celebrating the family’s heritage.
A Thriving Legacy
[edit]The Piquero Clan continues to grow and thrive. Family members have excelled in many fields, including education, public service, business, and the arts. Despite spreading out to other areas, most Piqueros still feel a strong connection to Candijay, Bohol, which remains the heart of the family.
The great-great-great-great-grandchildren of Esteban Piquero and Bernarda Goromora carry on their legacy. They honor their ancestors by staying united, celebrating their Spanish roots, and teaching the younger generations about the importance of family.
A Bright Future Built on Strong Foundations
[edit]The Piquero Clan’s history is a story of strength, unity, and love for family. From their beginnings with Esteban and Bernarda in Candijay to the present-day reunions and achievements, the family’s journey is a reminder of the power of staying connected and honoring the past. Despite challenges like strictness and greed, the Piquero Clan continues to build a legacy that future generations will be proud of.
