DE ANZA

Here's his diary! Want to take a peek? It has been translated into English. http://www.sandiegohistory.net/books/pourade/explorers/explorerstranslation11.htm
http://www.win.tue.nl/cs/fm/engels/discovery/anza.html
This one is great! It lists the original members of De Anza’s party. It might be interesting to "check out" the surnames (last names).
