Descendants

Admiral Montojo's daughter, Fermina, became the second wife of Jacobo Zobel y Zangoniz. With Don Jacobo she sired Consuelo (married to the American General Adler of Hawaii and benefactress of the Consuelo Foundation), Matilde (who married into the Andres Soriano family), Gloria (who married into the Padilla family and whose children, Georgina Macrohon and Alejandro Padilla of Spain administer the Premio Zobel), and Fernando Zóbel de Ayala y Montojo, the renowned painter whose works hang prominently in Madrid, Barcelona, and Ateneo de Manila University's art galleries.

With this marriage, Fermina Montojo became stepmother to her husband's three young children: Jacobo (father of polo player billionaire Enrique Zobel de Ayala y Olgado), Alfonso (father of photographer billionaire Jaime Zobel de Ayala y Pfitz) and the youngest, Mercedes Zobel de Ayala y Roxas de McMicking (a.k.a. MacMicking) who owned the majority of shares in the Ayala Corporation, Bank of the Philippine Islands, Globe Telecom, Cebu Holdings, Honda Philippines, and was, together with husband Joseph McMicking, developer of the Sotogrande in Spain and the entire Makati central business district, including Forbes Park.

Famous quotes containing the word descendants:

    And what if my descendants lose the flower
    Through natural declension of the soul,
    Through too much business with the passing hour,
    Through too much play, or marriage with a fool?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Your descendants shall gather your fruits.
    Virgil [Publius Vergilius Maro] (70–19 B.C.)

    We go to great pains to alter life for the happiness of our descendants and our descendants will say as usual: things used to be so much better, life today is worse than it used to be.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
