The translator: Maria Dolores Power (née Jones Suñé).
Although born in London, Maria Dolores lived in Bilbao for most of her first 8 years, so that her mother tongue is Spanish. She then lived and was educated in England. Maria Dolores studied languages at Trinity and All Saints Colleges, Department of Education of Leeds University, specializing in Spanish. Part of her training was at Madrid University. She is now retired, a grandmother and lives in Gloucestershire. She continues to teach Spanish to the local U3A.
Ma Dolores maintains close ties with her family on her mother’s side in Bilbao. Her mother Josefina Suñé came on the SS Habana as an auxiliar, an adult helper for the nearly 4,000 refugee children who came to Britain from the Basque Country during the Civil War.
Her father John Jones was a former merchant navy officer who was involved in taking food to the Republicans during the Spanish Civil War. Later he graduated from Leeds University as a linguist and went on to become a lecturer.
Ma Dolores’ parents met in Hereford at one of the colonias, as the group homes of Basque refugees were called.
More recently Ma Dolores became involved with the BCA’37 UK - the Association for the UK Basque Children, whilst writing about the life of her mother.
