Edit LifeQualtextThe father of Hugh Ian McGarvie-Munn was born in Scotland. McGarvie-Munn was the captain of the Seaforth Highlanders. In 1947 he married Carmen Atala Ydígoras Laparra, the daughter of María Laparra Samajoa and José Miguel Ramón Idígoras Fuentes.
In June 1954, an opposition selected by John Emil Peurifoy in San Salvador agreed the transition from the government of Jacobo Árbenz Guzmán to a junta in the Pacto de San Salvador during the operation PBSUCCESS. Idígoras Fuentes recognized the lack of unity among the signatories of the Pacto de San Salvador, and informed Peurifoy about McGarvie-Munn that he would be involved in power under a gentlemen's agreement. Peurifoy interpreted the attitude of Idígoras Fuentes as a rejection of the Pacto de San Salvador.
On March 2, 1958 Idigoras Fuentes, the father-in-law of Hugh Ian McGarvie-Munn, became president of Guatemala. As a painter, McGarvie-Munn was a member of the Royal Institution of Naval Architects of an association of shipbuilders and Idígoras Fuentes founded the Guatemalan Navy.
Hugh Ian McGarvie-Munn purchased the listed castle of Entrecasteaux (Var) as an accommodation for his family in 1974, and made it a museum. Single-level Edit source text
