Resumen
Mi abuelo, don Gilberto Morera Vargas (1896-1986) poseía un admirable don de gentes y además disfrutaba en sacar los parentescos entre las personas del pueblo de Palmares, Alajuela.
Don Gilberto era un hombre de prodigiosa memoria. Así por ejemplo, los datos genealógicos que él recordaba y se remontaban siete generaciones atrás, han sido uno por uno corroborados por nuestro colega genealogista Ramón Villegas Palma o por mí mismo.
De niño y colegial, yo acostumbraba visitarlo para charlar con él y escuchar sus historias y anécdotas, pero demasiado joven entonces, cometí el error de no grabarlas o transcribirlas pronto. Solo alguna parte de su vasto conocimiento nos quedó escrita en su libro Un recuerdo para mis nietos.
My grandfather, Don Gilberto Morera Vargas (1896-1986) had admirable people skills and also enjoyed finding relationships between the people of the town of Palmares, Alajuela. Don Gilberto was a man of prodigious memory. For example, the genealogical data that he remembered, which went back seven generations, have been corroborated one by one by our genealogist colleague Ramón Villegas Palma or by myself. As a child and schoolboy, I used to visit him to chat with him and listen to his stories and anecdotes, but too young then, I made the mistake of not recording or transcribing them soon. Only some part of his vast knowledge was written to us in his book A memory for my grandchildren.
