About the event
This presentation, by Museum Director Paul Spitzzeri, looks back to 1841 when the Rowland and Workman Expedition used the trail to travel from Santa Fé, New Mexico to Los Angeles. The talk emphasizes the diversity of people who were in the group, including genízaro (Indigenous and Spanish) New Mexicans, Americans, and Europeans, and who settled throughout Mexican Alta California leaving legacies that have lasted through generations.
