FESTIBA 2024: Dr. García's Gold Stories from the Rio Grande
-
- Society & Culture
Let’s tell the story of gold that was buried under a house during the Great Depression and then uncovered by a plumber many years later. It is an exciting story and yet under told story in South Texas history that highlights not only a family that buried the gold, but a story of unprecedented philanthropic generosity in the history of South Texas and in American history.
The content for this session comes from a family archival collection that was donated to the Museum of South Texas History in 2022.
This was recorded during FESTIBA on Friday, March 1, within Dr. García's Gold exhibit.
