Merchant, without university studies, member of a conservative family formed by seven other siblings: Miguel<\/a> (1904-1976), Esperanza (1906-1998), Antonio (1908-1958), Luis<\/a> (1910-1998), Carlos (1912-1914), Gerardo (1915-1968) and Mar\u00eda (1916-2005).\u00a0\u00a0His father was Miguel Rosales Vallecillos, an industrialist who owned a family haberdashery, Almacenes La Esperanza, located in the Arco de las Cucharas, next to the Bib-Rambla Square; his mother was Esperanza Camacho Corona.<\/p>\n

Jos\u00e9, nicknamed Pepiniqui, has been linked to Falange, like most of his brothers, <\/strong> since the turbulent years preceding the military uprising of 1936 and played an active role during the years of the conflict and the first postwar period.<\/p>\n

He is the only one of the Rosales brothers who speaks to Federico for a moment after being arrested and gives him a pack of cigarettes. After talking with him, he leaves peacefully, but the next morning, when he returns, Lorca was no longer in the Gobierno Civil.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Jos\u00e9 Rosales learns of Federico’s arrest on that same day, August 16, on his return from a mission in G\u00fc\u00e9jar Sierra. In his house in Angulo Street<\/a>, he later told the journalist Eduardo Molina Fajardo<\/a>, he finds his parents crying: “Vald\u00e9s<\/a> wants to give an example”.<\/p>\n

The story of what happened there, in those key hours for the poet’s survival, is the following: “I wanted to see Vald\u00e9s. In front of the civil governor’s office, an orderly told me that I could not pass. I gave a push and a kick to Vald\u00e9s’s door and went in with a gun: ‘What happened in my house? Why has my house been invaded? Vald\u00e9s tries to calm him down and assures him that Lorca was in another outbuilding<\/a>. Pepiniqui is the only one of the Rosales brothers who speaks to Federico for a moment and hands him a pack of cigarettes. Jos\u00e9 Rosales, after talking with him, leaves calmly, but the next morning, when he returns, he was no longer there. “At that moment I stopped knowing anything about Federico Garc\u00eda Lorca”.<\/p>\n

Pepiniqui’s testimony appears in several books on the circumstances of Lorca’s death: Fear, forgetfulness and fantasy<\/em>, by Agust\u00edn Pen\u00f3n<\/a>; Marcelle Auclaire<\/a>, Life and Death of Garc\u00eda Lorca<\/em>, and in much of Ian Gibson’s bibliography starting with his first title, The Nationalist Repression of Granada in 1936 and the Death of Federico Garc\u00eda Lorca<\/em>, published in France in 1971.<\/p>\n

Jos\u00e9 Rosales died on August 28, 1978.<\/p>\n
