Christina was born to Marcos Cabrera and Henrietta Elsie Jane Tudge November, 1879 in Cuba. Her name is written as "Crestina" on a family photo and in the 1905 NY State Census but on other documents it is "Christina" or "Christine". She had one living sibling, Leocadia Andrea Cabrera (memorial #88241942) b. December 9, 1881. Her father had been married previously and produced several children with his first wife, therefore, Christina had a number of half siblings, some of which lived in Cuba and some in the USA.
Working in New York City, Christina was a dressmaker as were her sister, Leocadia, and her mother, Henrietta. She is listed in the 1912 New Rochelle, NY city directory as a dressmaker and in the 1920 NYC directory as an operator. Her father made cigars.
Christina never married. She died August 3, 1923 of problems with her spleen. She was buried with her mother in Woodlawn Cemetery, Bronx, NY. There is no headstone marking her grave or that of her mother.
