In reality, nothing noteworthy about his early years was ever discovered. But, amongst the many American versions penned about the famed man all mention that Walt Disney himself was suspicious about his true parents.
What few documents remain regarding the subject refer to the Hollywood purges against anti-communism and un-American activities in the mid 50’s. US President Eisenhower sent a memo to FBI head J. Edgar Hoover, asking for a quick name check on Walt Disney and three others, persons considered for appointment to the Advisory Committee on the Arts, National Cultural Centre. As a result of the report, Walt was not appointed.
For my part I like leaving this story just where it is. Confused but so many contradictory facts. Mojacar deserves to claim him just as much as anywhere else. Walt Disney belonged to the world. That unique status is confirmed by every generation of children that became enamoured with: Mickey Mouse, Pluto, Huwey, Dewey and Louie. His beloved characters still bring smiles, giggles and outright belly laughs to Japanese, Arabs, Koreans or Laplanders.
II believe that Walt Disney came from Mojacar. Yes, born in the barrio of Espiritu Santo. Come over and I will show you the exact house. As all of us true life explorers say around the camp fire when such momentous yet confusing issues are discussed: “Well, If it ain´t true it aughta be.”
