      <image:caption>This is another property deed involving Petrona Quimpo, this time as the buyer of urban land in Numancia, Capiz from Cenón Gonzales in 1924. The property is described as three-fourths of a lot suitable for urban construction, with coconut trees, located in the town center and bounded by several streets including Rizal Avenue.</image:caption>

      <image:title>BLOG - Captain Lucas: The Land Builder - 1955 Conditional Sale to Patrocinia G Morales</image:title>
      <image:caption>Conditional land sale between Catholic priest (Rev. Fr. Emiliano Fulgencio) and Mrs. Patrocinio G. Morales for a 330-square-meter residential lot in Dumarao, Capiz. The transaction functions as a mortgage-like arrangement where the seller receives ₱400.00 but retains the right to repurchase the property for the same amount within one year. If not repurchased, Morales would be the permanent owner</image:caption>

      <image:title>BLOG - Captain Lucas: The Land Builder - 1957 Land Pledge Patrocinia G Morales to Meeryla Roldan widow Gonzales</image:title>
      <image:caption>Records a land pledge transaction where Patrocinio G. Morales (Miguel's mother) pledged a large parcel of land (over 20,000 square meters) in Makato, Aklan to Meeryla Roldan widow Gonzales for ₱500.00. This appears to be another financial arrangement using family land as collateral, similar to her previous transactions. The document is significant as it's written in the local Hiligaynon language.</image:caption>
