Pancho Villa Widow Keeps Legacy In Chihuahua Museum
A Chihuahua tour guides visitors to Luz C. de Villa widow of Pancho Villa, in a section of the outlaw's former home now a small museum. The guide recounts Villa’s rise from peon to revolutionary general and later outlaw, his 1911 1915 leadership, Pershing pursuit, and his 1923 assassination. The visit ends with Villa memorabilia including his bullet scarred car and a shop of handmade black pottery. Villa's wife, born near Chihuahua, remains in modest quarters on the estate and supports poorer tenants.
