Description: Portrait of Hilaria Aguinaldo, spouse of Emilio Aguinaldo. The original caption is as follows: “ TODAY IN HISTORY (or should we say HERstory): On March 6, 1921, General Emilio Aguinaldo’s first wife, Hilaria del Rosario, the mother of his five children, died. During the term of President Aguinaldo, Hilaria organized the Hijas de la Revolucion (Daughters of the Revolution), which later became the Asociacion Nacional de la Cruz Roja (National Association of the Red Cross). This organization raised funds for medicine and other supplies, and helped attend to the sick soldiers during the revolution. At that time, the term First Lady was not used which makes her the unofficial First Lady of the Philippines. (Photo courtesy of the National Library of the Philippines) ”
