Margaret Roque Castro pictured with her older sister, Guadalupe. The Roque family lived in the neighborhood known as "Barrio Judeo." Margaret Roque Castro described the neighborhood: "I was born in a little area right there on Herald Street, they used to call it El Barrio Judeo, because it belonged to some Jewish people. There were several houses, little old houses, but they were, you know, liveable. Then my parents bought that house on Herald Street, 1113 Herald Street. You know, the same street, but farther down." (Vasquez and Carpio, 22)
