5. Maria Rizal (1859-1945), the sixth Rizal child, became the wife of Daniel Faustino Cruz of Binan, Laguna. The grandmother of Gemma Cruz Araneta.(my apology for the oversight).

Correction as per Gemma Cruz Araneta, the first Miss International:

You wrote that Maria Rizal is the grandmother of Gemma Cruz Araneta. Thank you for mentioning me. However, Maria Rizal was my GREAT grandmother. My grandmother on the Cruz side was Concepcion Arguelles who was married to Mauricio Cruz, the son of Maria and Daniel Cruz.

My father, the late Ismael A. Cruz, was the son of Concepcion and Mauricio, thus the grandson of Maria Rizal.

Thank you.
Gemma Cruz Araneta
