From 1931
to 1969 In 1931, Idelfonso Cid, married to Vicenta Sánchez, the current owners’ grandparents, bought Dehesa de los Canónigos. Idelfonso and Vicenta, who originally belonged to a family of flour merchants, were informed about Luz’s disease (their daughter) and were advised by doctors about the benefits of country life to ease their daughter’ suffering. For these reasons, they decided to sell their property and buy Dehesa de los Canónigos. The main characters of this new stage are: Arturo Cid, married to Amalia García, and Juan Cid, married to Rosario Alonso. The two brothers –the true mainstay of the business until the 60’s- chose to sell but thanks God the property was again for sale. It was then when Luis and Mª Luz, driven by the latter’s passion for her family’s estate, which was a witness of her childhood, convinced Arturo to get it back despite of the great efforts Luis had to make and his decision to abandon the medical school. It was a drastic decision, indeed, but quite logical at the same time due to the deep affection he felt for his father in law. |
