Rizal: Childhood Years (1861-1871)

JOSE RIZAL, the seventh child of Francisco Mercado Rizal and
Teodora Alonso y Quintos, was born in Calamba, Laguna.

22 June 1861
He was baptized JOSE RIZAL MERCADO at the Catholic of
Calamba by the parish priest Rev. Rufino Collantes with Rev.
Pedro Casañas as the sponsor.

28 September 1862
The parochial church of Calamba and the canonical books,

entered, were burned.

Rizal: Childhood Years (1861-1871)

1864
Barely three years old, Rizal learned the alphabet from his
mother.
1865
When he was four years old, his sister Conception, the eight
child in the Rizal family, died at the age of three. It was on this
occasion that Rizal remembered having shed real tears for the
first time.
1865 – 1867
During this time his mother taught him how to read and write.
The Story of the Moth which inspired Rizal for academic
excellence was shared by her Mother. His father hired a
classmate by the name of Leon Monroy who, for five months
until his (Monroy) death, taught Rizal the rudiments of Latin.

 At about this time two of his mother’s cousin
frequented Calamba. Uncle Manuel Alberto, seeing
Rizal frail in body, concerned himself with the physical
development of his young nephew and taught the
latter love for the open air and developed in him a
great admiration for the beauty of nature, while Uncle
Gregorio, a scholar, instilled into the mind of the boy
love for education. He advised Rizal: "Work hard and
perform every task very carefully; learn to be swift as
well as thorough; be independent in thinking and
make visual pictures of everything."

Rizal: Childhood Years (1861-1871)

6 June 1868
With his father, Rizal made a pilgrimage to Antipolo to fulfill the
vow made by his mother to take the child to the Shrine of the
Virgin of Antipolo should she and her child survive the ordeal of
delivery which nearly caused his mother’s life.

From there they proceeded to Manila and visited his sister

Saturnina who was at the time studying in the La Concordia
College in Sta. Ana.

1869
At the age of eight, Rizal wrote his first poem entitled "Sa Aking
Mga Kabata." The poem was written in tagalog and had for its
theme "Love of One’s Language."

In Biñan, Laguna 1870
His brother Paciano brought Rizal to Biñan, Laguna. He was placed
under the tutelage of Justiniano Aquino Cruz, studying Latin and
Spanish. In this town he also learned the art of painting under the
tutorship of an old painter by the name of Juancho Carrera.

17 December 1870
Having finished his studies in Biñan, Rizal returned to Calamba on
board the motorboat Talim. His parents planned to transfer him to
Manila where he could continue his studies.

Back in Calamba 1871

His mother was imprisoned in Sta. Cruz, Laguna for allegedly
poisoning the wife of her cousin Jose Alberto, a rich property owner of
Biñan and brother of Manuel and Gregorio.

 1872
For the first time, Rizal heard of the word “Filibustero”
which his father forbid the members of his family to
utter, including such names as Cavite and Burgos. (It
must be remembered that because of the Cavite
Mutiny on January 20, 1872, Fathers Mariano Gomez,
Jose Burgos and Jacinto Zamora were garroted at
Bagumbayan Field on February 17, 1872.)
