PUERTO Rican relatives of one of the 20 children shot dead at a US primary school say the family of the 6-year-old girl moved to the mainland just two months earlier.
The parents of Ana Grace Marquez had moved from Canada to Connecticut and enrolled her at Sandy Hook Elementary School because of its good reputation, the child's grandmother, Elba Marquez, told The Associated Press.
"They looked for the best school for their daughter, the best," Marquez said, adding that she had flown there for Thanksgiving.
She said the family had moved to the area because Ana Grace's mother had been hired to teach at a local university.
"It was a beautiful place, just beautiful," Elba Marquez said.
"What happened does not match up with the place where they live."
Elba Marquez's brother, Jorge Marquez, who is mayor of a Puerto Rican town, said Ana Grace had a 9-year-old brother who was at the school during the shooting.
"He was in another classroom," he said.
The family flew from Puerto Rico to Connecticut overnight for the girl's funeral.
