Abstract

People from the municipality of Jagüey Grande, in the province of Matanzas, took active part in the Independence War (1895-1898). In that context, physician Jose Lazaro Martin Marrero Rodriguez was appointed delegate of the Cuban Revolutionary Party in the territory; his consecration was decisive for the independence movement of the town. The current work reviews Dr. Marrero Rodriguez’s qualities, through passages of his life as revolution organizer in Jaguey Grande. The article tells about his relationship with Jose Marti, his skills as military strategist in the combat of Palmar Bonito and his scientific contribution. Dr. Marrero was recognized as Distinguished Son of Santiago de las Vegas (La Habana) and Adoptive Son of Jaguey Grande, due to his merits at the service of the Homeland. The Maternal Home of Jaguey Grande is named after him. His life, thoughts and curriculum, devoted to Cuban independence, are a paradigm to follow.
