Another son, Jesus
(Sosing)
also a planter and dealer of automobiles became the Chief of Police (Hefe)
of San Carlos before World War II. He was the first and one of the few
distinct figures in San Carlos to own a European vintage car that was
considered then a luxury and status symbol that time when horse-drawn
carriages were still popular in the island.
Rafael
(Paeng),
the eldest child became the supervisor of highway construction that saw
the construction of roads and bridges from San Carlos to Bacolod. He also
engineered the construction of a famous Hotel de Mallorca in Bacolod as
well as the construction of road to Mambucal spring in Murcia during Spanish
time. Paeng, like his brothers who had inherited a sizable property from
the father, Don Paco, was also a planter but was not able to successfully
keep his property due to his womanizing and gambling.
