I am a granddaughter of one of the deportees-Fernando Gomez. He did, indeed, return to Bisbee from New Mexico. He traveled with his wife young son and possibly one infant daughter to San Pedro, CA where he worked as a longshoreman. Several years and three more children later they returned to Bisbee (in 1924). He went to work in the Shattuck mine where he was killed in a cave-in in January 1925.
