I lived in Pacifica for a year. It’s interesting that they didn’t mention that when the Spanish landed in Pacifica they were greeted by an Ohlone tribe. They were the ones who guided the Spanish up to what is now Sweeney Ridge. How was that not mentioned????
Thank you for the information I didn’t know that but they have quite a few short little videos just like this one maybe they will mention those Ohlone Native Americans in another video. I was happy to see what they 1st San Francisco Bay people look like doing personal research they were very brown 😊
Ancestry confirmed family lore that Don Jose De Ortega is my 5th Great Grandfather. He retired as a Captain from the military after 40 years of service.
@@gbravojr He received a land grant when he retired which is down by Santa Barbara I believe. I believe I stem from his son, Ygnacio. I have been trying to read all I can, there is a lot of awesome history stemming from this family.
Hahahah Unclear if people settled California.....denying Indigenous stewardship since time immemorial - even though there are archeological sites dated over 10000years in the Bay Area
Don jose Francisco ortega is one of my many great grandparents. I love watching history about him ❤

That would have been a good part to include in this video. Thanks for the knowledge!

Beautiful telling of the discovery of the bay, absolutely gorgeous painting of the Spaniards looking out over the estuary.
Just found out through ancestry that my grandmother stems from Jose! Very cool.

Definitely. But also cool how these foos ran into stuff they had never seen before. But yeah indigenous land from Alaska to Patagonia.
It was paradise. And, like everything else, it was ruined by too many European people... of which I'm one of.
