AfriGeneas ~ African Ancestored Genealogy Her photo is described as "Colonel Carmen Amelia Robles, Afro Mexican Woman Leader in the Mexican Revolution" but other than that, we can't find much more about her except this tantalizing tidbit from one writer: "Flatter than a board, (she) accentuated her masculinity with a buttoned-up shirt and a knotted tie. With a sullen expression under her black felt hat, even in her sleep she wouldn't stop caressing the pistol she carried on her right thigh. She'd shoot with her right hand and hold her cigar with her left." We'll keep searching for more information.
