Ponciano
LONGORIA Villarreal was born about July 1852 in La Grulla, Starr County,
TX, USA. The 1860 Census shows his age as 8, indicating he was born
after August 1851 and before August 1852. The 1880 Census gives his age as 27,
indicating he was born after June 7, 1852 and before June 7, 1853. His grave
marker shows his birth year as 1855. His death certificate indicated he was
61 years old, indicating he was born after June 25, 1852 and before June 25,
1853. A baptismal index for shows he was baptized in 1853. All things considered,
I have concluded his grave marker is incorrect and that he was born between June
25, 1852 and August 1852. He died on June 25, 1914 in Santa Rita Ranch, Brooks
County, TX, USA. He was buried in Santa Rita cemetery, Brooks County,
TX, USA. He was a Rancher in Santa Rita Ranch, Brooks County, TX,
USA.
Ponciano Longoria was born about 1852 and thus was probably the first "American" born ancestor from the Longoria branch. He was also a true land baron, purchasing many tracts of land starting in 1884. He established his first ranch at "La Blanca". Ponciano purchased many of his relatives' interests in the "Encantada" and "Encino del Poso" grants and combined them with his wife's and his own inheritance to form the Santa Rita ranch in Brooks County. He was a rancher in both La Grulla and in La Encantada.
My father, Raul Longoria, recalls hearing stories about Ponciano's stubbornness. He recalled one story about a time when Ponciano was standing in a pasture talking to two other men. One of the men, Celso Villarreal, noticed that Ponciano was standing on a hill of fire ants and told Ponciano that he should move to avoid being bit. Ponciano, in his stubbornness, responded that the fire ants could not harm him and he continued standing on the ant hill while resuming the conversation. Though the ants bit, he refused to acknowledge that they were there or that they even bothered him.
Ponciano suffered an apparent heart attack while holding his two-year old grandson, Raul Longoria, in his lap. He died soon thereafter.
Parents: Juan Santiago LONGORIA Flores and Yrinea VILLARREAL Garza.
Spouse:
Nicolasa LONGORIA.
Oral history also says that Ponciano was the father of an illegitimate child
named Leandro Longoria. The mother of the child was Nicolasa Longoria, who apparently
lived next to or near the house of Ponciano's father, and was a first cousin
of Ponciano. This oral history has been confirmed by Leandro's death certificate
which shows Ponciano and Nicolasa as his parents.Children were: Leandro LONGORIA.

Ramirez were married on February 16, 1876 in Starr County, Texas.
