Francisco Manuel Homem Cristo


Francisco Manuel Homem Christo was a Portuguese military and political republican. He was distinguished as one of the officers of the Portuguese Army involved in the events surrounding the Anglo-Portuguese Treaty of 1891.
Accused of having betrayed the republican ideals in 1910, he found himself forced into exile in France.
He is the great-great-grandfather of Guy-Manuel de Homem Christo, one half of the electronic music duo Daft Punk.
