Paquita Rico and Soledad's father Juan Antón where 1st cousins. Does somebody know their exact relation? Are their fathers or their mothers siblings?

In all the articles I have I don't find reference to answer that question. However, it is interesting because in Spain Soledad is called the niece of Paquita. Paquita and Soledad's father were first cousins.
In America, that would make Soledad Paquita's second cousin, not her niece! What about in other countries? |

it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soledad_Miranda
The Italian wikipedia is the only source I could find which calls Paquita to be a 1st cousin to Soledad's father. But I think this could be true because other family members are mentioned on this site. |

Hi Daniel,
In my 140 + articles about Soledad, yes, several do mention that Paquita was the "prima hermana" of Soledad's father. In English that translates as "first sister" but I know the correct translation is "first cousin". The words for relatives in Spanish are constructed quite differently from in English! I think it's around 5 articles that say it was Soledad's father. However, in one article it says Soledad's mother was the cousin. I am fairly certain it is the father, but I don't know his exact relation to Rico. If you become a member of Soledadmiranda.com (see www.soledadmiranda.com/join.html ) and read the articles and interviews, you will discover that Soledad and her aunt Paquita did not seem to be on very good terms, and Paquita never gave Soledad any help in her career. Thanks, Amy |
