  1 Amalia’s formal name was Lucía Victoria Moreau, but she was known throughout her life as Amalia.

  2 Distillers often made candy as a sideline, because after the fermented wash was boiled to produce the distillate, a semiliquid sugary residue was usually left in the alembic and could be poured into molds to make candy.

  3 Juan’s mother was apparently a slave belonging to Amalia Moreau. In the slavery tradition, she would have taken her owner’s surname, so her son’s full name was Juan Bacardi Moreau. Upon the death of Emilio Bacardi in 1922, Juan Bacardi wrote Emilio’s widow to express his condolences “for the loss of my beloved first cousin.” In that letter, he noted that after his own father passed away, his cousin Emilio had acted as “my father ... and my protector.” According to a 1947 company memorandum, José Bacardi Massó also had a daughter named Carmen, born of a slave whom José had purchased.

  4 Some Bacardi family members say Elvira was herself a mulata, with some black ancestry.

  5 José Antonio Aponte, a Havana wood-carver of African descent who, inspired by Moses, resolved in 1812 to lead Cuban blacks “out of bondage” and was hanged for his conspiracy.

  6 The term “universal suffrage” at the turn of the century in Cuba and most other countries was generally taken to refer only to males.
