The Vigatà family gave rise to a phenomenon that could go viral today. Four of the five siblings born at the end of the 20th century in the small town of Torregrossa (Pla d'Urgell) became school teachers, an unusual coincidence in an era when rural illiteracy was prevalent. The fifth sibling, Marcelino Vigatà was a councillor for ERC and died in the war.
