San Juan de Ortoño II, Ames, A Coruña (2016). The six corpses were recovered the next morning, on 21 August 1936, by the priest of San Juan and buried in a common grave in the atrium of the church. As yet it has not been possible to recover the bodies.
The next morning the priest of San Xoán de Ortoño saw that one of them wore a scapular and buried them in a common grave in the atrium of the church. But before that, he had six death certificates drawn up, so complete that, in addition to describing the causes of death, they included photos of the corpses. These certificates did not identify the dead, but they served their families, years later, to name them.
