  • 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.

  • 2016 PEIR, Draft December 2015
    3.5 CULTURAL RESOURCES This section of the Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) describes cultural resources in the SCAG region, discusses the potential impacts of the proposed 2016 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (“2016 RTP/SCS,” “Plan,” or “Project”) on cultural resources, identifies mitigation measures for the impacts, and evaluates the residual impacts. Cultural resources were evaluated in accordance with Appendix G of the 2015 State California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines. Cultural resources within the SCAG region were evaluated at a programmatic level of detail, in relation to the general plans of the six counties and 191 cities within the SCAG region; review of general information characterizing the paleontological resources that have been reported from the SCAG region and review of Dibblee maps of geology and soils; general information characterizing prehistoric and historic human occupation within the SCAG region; general sensitivity of the SCAG region with respect to Native American Sacred sites and tribal cultural resources available through coordination with the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) and direct outreach to tribal governments within the SCAG region, including two Native American consultation workshops hosted by SCAG during preparation of the 2016 RTP/SCS and related PEIR; and review of known cemeteries in the SCAG region; a review of related literature germane to the SCAG region; as well as a review of SCAG’s 2012 RTP/SCS PEIR.1 Cultural resources within the SCAG region are recorded in the paleontological fossils; archeological sites and artifacts, historic sites, artifacts, structures and buildings; and the built environment. There is a rich record of archived fossils that are estimated to represent over 500 million years.2 The archaeological record provides evidence of over thousands of years of human occupation.

Buildings of historical merit, both “antique” (pre-1860) and newer, are recorded. Copies of official HABS documentation include photographic prints, negatives, photographic pages, inventory work sheets, photograph-data book reports, measured drawings, and other materials, prepared and submitted by the program’s surveyors. These materials are supplemented by administrative files, correspondence, survey notes, sketches, field notebooks, essays, ephemera, newspaper clippings, and other published materials.

There are no other historical landmarks or interpretive facilities that reflect the ethnic background of the majority of the community. The Bockias-Orr House owned by the Pajaro Valley Historical Association commemorates the Anglo pioneers of Watsonville, while the Agricultural History Museum at the Fairgrounds interprets the farming heritage of the valley. The acquisition of the Rancho San Andrés Castro Adobe was consciously made to preserve and interpret the only remaining building of the Mexican Rancho era of California remaining in the Pajaro Valley and the finest example of a rancho hacienda in the Monterey Bay region.

GRAVES PREFACE Time flies so swiftly, that I can hardly realize so many years have elapsed since I, a child five years of age, passed through the Golden Gate, to become a resident of California. I have always enjoyed reading of the experiences of California pioneers, who came here either before or after I did. The thought came to me, that possibly other people would enjoy an account of the experiences of my seventy years in the State, during which I participated in the occurrences of a very interesting period of the State's development. As, during all of my life, to think has been to act, this is the only excuse or apology I can offer for this book. J. A. GRAVES. ix CONTENTS CHAPTER PAGE I FAMILY HISTORY. MARYSVILLE IN 1857. COL.

  • Recent Archival Research Along Santa Monica Bay Has Revealed The
    SEARCHING FOR GUASPET: A MISSION PERIOD RANCHERIA IN WEST LOS ANGELES ANNE Q. STOLL, JOHN G. DOUGLASS, AND RICHARD CIOLEK-TORRELLO STATISTICAL RESEARCH, INC. Recent archival research along Santa Monica Bay has revealed the presence of a Gabrielino/Tongva settlement named Guaspet in the Ballona Wetlands, which was previously only suspected to have existed. In this paper, we review Spanish records from the Mission San Gabriel, the Pueblo of Los Angeles, and later Mexican civil records, which provide insights into the occupation of this Native American rancheria and the interactions of its residents with Spanish missionaries and ranchers. The Ballona is a drowned river valley in west Los Angeles, sandwiched along the Santa Monica Bay between the Santa Monica Mountains and the Palos Verdes peninsula (Figure 1). Ballona and Centinela creeks, which feed the Ballona wetlands, drain an approximately 110-mi.2 area, bounded by the Westchester Bluffs and the Baldwin and Beverly Hills. During much of the Holocene and, significantly, when the Spanish first arrived in the region, Ballona Creek captured the flow of the much larger Los Angeles River. Statistical Research, Inc. (SRI) has conducted archaeological surveys and excavations in the Ballona since 1989 (e.g., Altschul et al. 1991). A major part of our research during this time has involved the debate over Mission-period occupation of the area by the Gabrielino (Altschul et al. 2003). Initially, interest in this occupation focused on the village of Sa’angna. Alfred Kroeber (1925) was the first to apply the Gabrielino name of Sa’an to the area. Despite an intensive search by later researchers, no mention of Sa’angna was found in historical records.
