Rancho Cahuenga is now a part of the city of Burbank, with the Los Angeles River channel run ning through it. Rancho Cahuenga is often confused with the nearby Campo de Cahuenga, near w hat is now Universal City, where in 1847 the Articles of Capitulation were signed, ending the Mexi can-American War in Alta California. Jose Miguel Triunfo was an ex-San Fernando Mission India n born around 1810. He had been granted Rancho Cahuenga by Mexican Governor Micheltorena i n 1843 for services performed at the Mission. Jose Miguel Triunfo was one of the few Indians that were able to obtain and keep property. Miguel and his wife, Maria Rafaela (Canedo) Arriola can be found in the 1850 census of Los Angeles. In 1845, Triunfo traded the 388 acres Rancho Cahuenga f or the 6,661 acres Rancho Tujunga.

Home to 1.77 million people, it is north of the l arger, more populous Los Angeles Basin. Nearly two thirds of the valley’s land area is part of the city of Los Angeles. The other incorporated cities in the valley are Glendale, Burbank, San Fernando, Hid den Hills, and Calabasas. The area is bound by the Santa Susana Mountains to the northwest, the Si mi Hills to the west, the Santa Monica Mountains and Chalk Hills to the south, the Verdugo Mounta ins to the east, and the San Gabriel Mountains to the northeast. The northern Sierra Pelona Mounta ins, northwestern Topatopa Mountains, southern Santa Ana Mountains, and Downtown Los Angele s skyscrapers can be seen from higher neighborhoods, passes, and parks in the San Fernando Valley. Most of the San Fernando Valley is within the jurisdiction of the city of Los Angeles. VILLAGE BOLD, REGULAR & REGULAR ITALIC 10pt The Los Angeles River begins at the confluence ofCalabasas Creek (Arroyo Calabasas) and Bell Creek (Escorpión Creek), between Canoga Park High School and Owensmouth Avenue in Canoga Park. These creeks’ headwaters are in the Santa Monica Calabasas foothills, the Simi Hills’ Hidden Hills, Santa Sus ana Field Laboratory, and Santa Susana Pass Park lands. The river flows eastward along the southern r egions of the Valley. One of the river’s two unpaved sections can be found at the Sepulveda Basin. A sea sonal river, the Tujunga Wash, drains much of the western facing San Gabriel Mountains and passes i nto and then through the Hansen Dam Recreation Center in Lake View Terrace. It flows south along the V erdugo Mountains through the eastern communities of the valley to join the Los Angeles River in Stu dio City. Other notable tributaries of the river include Dayton Creek, Caballero Creek, Bull Creek, Paco ima Washington and Verdugo Washington The elevation of the floor of the valley varies from about 6 00 ft to 1,200 ft above sea level.

Universal City, an enc lave in the southern part of the valley, is unincorporated land housing the Universal Studios filming lo t and theme park. Mulholland Drive, which runs along the ridgeline of the Santa Monica Mountains, marks the boundary between the valley and the communities of Hollywood and the Los Angeles West stside. The valley’s natural habitat is a “temperate grasslands, savannas, and shrublands biome” of grassland, oak savanna, and chaparral shrub forest types of plant community habitats, along with lush riparian plants along the river, creeks, and springs. In this Mediterranean climate, post-1790s European agricul ulture for the mission’s support consisted of grapes, figs, olives, and general garden crops.

This thesis studies the rise of violence in SLO, its causation, and effects. The vigilance committee of 1858 represents the culmination of the violence that came from sweeping changes in the region, stemming from its earliest conquest by the Spanish. The mounting violence built upon itself as extensive changes took place. These changes include the conquest of California, from the Spanish mission period, Mexican and Alvarado revolutions, Mexican-American War, and the Gold Rush. The history of the county is explored until 1863 to garner an understanding of the borderlands violence therein. v TABLE OF CONTENTS Page CHAPTER INTRODUCTION…………………………………………………………... 1 PART I - CAUSATION…………………………………………………… 12 HISTORIOGRAPHY……………………………………………........ 12 BEFORE CONQUEST………………………………………..…….. 21 WAR……………………………………………………………..……. 36 GOLD RUSH……………………………………………………..….. 42 LACK OF LAW…………………………………………………….…. 45 RACIAL DISTRUST………………………………………………..... 50 OUTSIDE INFLUENCE………………………………………………58 LOCAL CRIME………………………………………………………..67 CONCLUSION……………………………………………………….

    UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY REGION IX 75 Hawthorne Street San Francisco, CA 94105·3901 JUL 6 2010 OFFICE OF THE REGIONAL ADMINISTRATOR Colonel Mark Toy District Engineer, Los Angeles District U.S. Army Corps of Engineers P.O. Box 532711 Los Ange les, California 90053-2325 Dear Colonel Toy: This letter transmits the Clean Water Act (CWA) jurisdictional determination for the Los Angeles River. On August 17, 2008, EPA's Assistant Administrator for Water designated the Los Angeles River as a "Special Case" as defined by the EPA-Corps 1989 Memorandum ofAgreement (MOA) regarding coordination on matters ofgeographic jurisdiction. Pursuant to the MOA, designation ofthe "Special Case" made EPA responsib le for determining the extent to which the Los Angeles River was protected as a "water ofthe United States." Specifically, EPA analyzed the river's status as a "Traditional Navigable Water," one ofseveral categories ofjurisdictional waters under the Act. We conclude that the mainstem ofthe Los Angeles River is a "Traditional Navigable Water" from its origins at the confluence of Arroyo Calabasas and Bell Creek to San Pedro Bay at the Pacific Ocean, a distance of approximately 51 miles . In reaching this conclusion, Region 9 and Headquarters staffconsidered a number offactors, including the ability ofthe Los Angeles River under current conditions offlow and depth to support navigation by watercraft; the history ofnavigation by watercraft on the river; the current commercial and recreational uses of the river; and plans for future

  • Basques in the Americas from 1492 To1892: a Chronology
    Basques in the Americas From 1492 to1892: A Chronology “Spanish Conquistador” by Frederic Remington Stephen T. Bass Most Recent Addendum: May 2010 FOREWORD The Basques have been a successful minority for centuries, keeping their unique culture, physiology and language alive and distinct longer than any other Western European population. In addition, outside of the Basque homeland, their efforts in the development of the New World were instrumental in helping make the U.S., Mexico, Central and South America what they are today. Most history books, however, have generally referred to these early Basque adventurers either as Spanish or French. Rarely was the term “Basque” used to identify these pioneers. Recently, interested scholars have been much more definitive in their descriptions of the origins of these Argonauts. They have identified Basque fishermen, sailors, explorers, soldiers of fortune, settlers, clergymen, frontiersmen and politicians who were involved in the discovery and development of the Americas from before Columbus’ first voyage through colonization and beyond. This also includes generations of men and women of Basque descent born in these new lands. As examples, we now know that the first map to ever show the Americas was drawn by a Basque and that the first Thanksgiving meal shared in what was to become the United States was actually done so by Basques 25 years before the Pilgrims. We also now recognize that many familiar cities and features in the New World were named by early Basques. These facts and others are shared on the following pages in a chronological review of some, but by no means all, of the involvement and accomplishments of Basques in the exploration, development and settlement of the Americas.

La política reformista impulsada por Carlos III delineó el proyecto de colonización que guió la ocupación. En el proyecto, las misiones tenían asignado un papel fundamental pues se consideraba que el trabajo de los misioneros haría de los nativos unos súbditos leales y produc- tivos para la Corona. Pero, desde el momento en que el pro- yecto inició, la decadencia del Imperio español era patente, lo que repercutió en el proceso colonizador de Alta Califor- nia.
