Biographical
Epimaco Fariola Mansueto was born on July 17, 1902 in the Philippines. Evidence of a grammar school education exist but records detailing Mansueto's emigration from the Philippines are hard to find. According to a World War II United States Army enlistment record dated October 16, 1942, Mansueto is identified as a United States citizen residing in San Joaquin, California. He lived at the Daguhoy Lodge at 203 East Hazelton Avenue, where he was a member of the Legionarios del Trabajo. Standing at five feet six inches and weighing 128 pounds, Mansueto worked on farms in the agricultural fields in northern California. Mansueto later married as documented in 1948 city directory and resided with his wife Katie at 3 Cottage Row in San Francisco, California. Mansueto passed away on January 8, 1988, in San Francisco, California at the age of eighty-six.
