Biography
Abraham Cisneros was one of the Mexican revolutionaries convicted in the 1913 Rangel-Cline case in Texas, captured with the party crossing to join the Mexican Revolution and imprisoned at the Texas State Penitentiary in Huntsville until the group's 1926 pardon.
The International Labor Defense holiday roster in the December 29, 1925 Daily Worker lists this prisoner, printed as Abraham Cineros, at Huntsville Texas. Its printed identifier is Box1 R1 Wynne State Farm; this is a prison number or mailing designation, not a year or a custody date. This documents confinement at the roster’s reporting time, without establishing an admission, transfer, release, new conviction or complete duration. Existing independently sourced custody chronology remains separate. Source: https://www.marxists.org/history/usa/pubs/dailyworker/1925/1925-ny/v02b-n297-NYE-dec-29-1925-DW-LOC.pdf#page=5
1920s custody review: Released in August1926 following a full pardon by Governor MiriamA.Ferguson. The August24,1926 DailyWorker names all six freed men, including this prisoner. An August21dispatch separately discusses the pardon and threatened rearrest. The evidence supports August, not an exact physical-release day; neither the publication day nor the pardon announcement is used as that day.
Sources: Daily Worker, August24,1926, pages1-2; Devine News, August26,1926, page1, including August21dispatch. Existing portraits are retained; no exact admission date is inferred.
The February 26, 1924 Daily Worker political-prisoner roster individually prints Abraham Cisneros with historical prisoner number 37486. The entry appears under Wynne State Farm, Huntsville, Texas. This is a contemporary institutional identifier, not a federal BOP register number. No admission or release date, individual sentence length, actual duration, organizational membership or present status is inferred.
In a first-person letter from Huntsville printed in the September 1926 Labor Defender, Abraham Cisneros states his birth date as May 15, 1888. He also reports that rheumatism prevented him from working or making articles for sale. The letter was written during imprisonment and published later; its issue date does not override the separately documented August 1926 release. No new custody date or duration is inferred.
The birthday-gift list locates Cisneros at Huntsville, Texas. This documents the source’s contemporary custody context without establishing a new admission, precise release or completed-service total.
