“Encarnación’s Kitchen: Mexican Recipes from 19th Century California”

Presented by Victor Valle

Victor Valle will be cooking up a storm! He will stir up the most amazing story of

Encarnacion Pinedo who published for her readers in San Francisco, California, the first Spanish

language cookbook in 1898.

Often ignored by historians, cookbooks have aided in the preservation of culture.

Cookbooks often included letters, memoirs, photos, and journals. Valle blends in the elements of

family, genealogy, and history.

Valle, well known for his storytelling skills, will present a program which he developed to

pull the amazing Encarnacion Pinedo from near obscurity and place her in the cultural spotlight

where she belongs.

Victor Valle began his distinguished career as a journalist at the Los Angeles Times. He later went

on to teach at various universities, such as Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and California State University. He

also did additional research, writing, and lecturing as a Harvard fellow. Valle became interested on the

impact of Mexican cuisine on the California Gold Rush. His research illustrates how food served as a way

of keeping families together in spite of isolation, political upheavals, and hostile forces. He and his wife

Mary Lau Valle have written two award winning books, Recipe of Memory and The Life and Recipes of Encarnacion Pinedo.

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

Dear Members & Friends,

T his will be my last

message. It has been

an honor serving as

President of the GSHA-SC

for the past three years.

We have come a long

way. The number of

members has increased

steadily and the Chapter’s financial position

is positive. The General Membership

Meeting programs have been top rate.

Similarly, the Viva la Familia Festival has

encouraged us to travel, enriching and

extending our family research.

I encourage you to step forward to

serve your organization as an active

volunteer. There are many opportunities.

Also, consider writing articles for the GSHA

Journal, Nuestras Raices and the Chapter’s

newsletter, Huellas del Pasado. Plan on

attending the GSHA National Conference.

This invitation is especially extended to our

younger members. Undeniably, this is

where the future of our organization lies.

Although I will be stepping down, I

intend to remain active in the GSHA-SC. It's

a great organization, full of good people

who are all committed to its Mission. Its

opportunities are limitless in service to

Hispanic family researchers and historians.

Likewise, the challenges are many. To begin

with, is the current model of organization

and program service delivery appropriate

for today? What more attention is required

in the social media area and on our

programs? Here I would recommend to the

Chapter’s Board that one of its positions

has to be dedicated to social media. This

would include the Chapter's website, blog,

Facebook, and the newsletter.

I pray that your upcoming Holidays be

blessed.

¡Que Dios los bendiga!

Paul J. Gomez

GSHA-SC President

MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR

Happy Holidays!

We end 2016 with

a presentation on 19th

century California cuisine

and how it ties in with

genealogy. After which

we will share a potluck

lunch. The holiday prize

raffle will commence

about 1 pm. If you are

not attending our holiday gathering and have

returned your completed door prize tickets to

the GSHA-SC PO Box, you are still eligible to

win. For a list of prizes, please see page 5 of

this newsletter.

How can we better serve you? We encourage our membership to please share your ideas about programs for 2017 with your board of directors. What interests you the most, speaker

presentations, workshops, sharing, or one-on-one help? This is your organization and we would like to hear from you.

Hope to see you on December 3.

Mona Hernandez VP Communications


December Election of Officers

Election of our 2017 Board of Directors is coming! Please attend our December 3, 2016 Holiday Meeting

to vote. It’s not too late to add your name to the hat to run for any office position, or to be on a

committee. Volunteers Are Needed.

We need a Secretary for 2017.

Our CFO is looking for an assistant to train to keep track of our funds and expenses and to pay

occasional bills. The CFO prepares reports for the board and on occasion, files a card with the State of

California to ensure that GSHA-SC remains a non-profit organization. While our CFO will serve one more

year, we need new people to keep our organization going for the long-term.

We are a volunteer organization. Our future survival depends on you. Please help by

volunteering. If you are interested in adding your name to the list of candidates, please email Mona

Hernandez, Nominations Chair at [email protected] or phone her at 626-379-9396. While the

MEETING IN REVIEW October 7, 2016 “A Tour of the John A. Rowland House

on a Beautiful Southern California Autumn Day”

By Doug Daniels and edited by Karen Cordova

On Friday, October 7, six members of GSHA-SC convened at the La Puente City Hall for a private

historical tour of the Heritage Room at the La Puente City Hall, the John A. Rowland House; and a

viewing of the La Puente Valley Bicentennial Quilt. The tour was arranged by Sara Barnes and Doug

Daniels.

Sara is a life-time member of the La Puente Valley Historical Society and a resident of Hacienda

Heights. Doug, a GSHA-SC member, grew up in La Puente and attended school in the Hacienda La

Puente Unified School District. After earning his dental degree in 1985, he spent one year teaching with

the school district. As a child, riding his bicycle along Workman Mill Road, he had no idea that his

childhood stomping grounds were once a part of a fascinating history. Neither did he know that Rowland

Heights was named for John A. Rowland, nor that his school, Don Julian Elementary, was named after

William Workman. Both men were two of the earliest settlers in the San Gabriel Valley.

After Doug began his genealogical research, he discovered his Campbell ancestors lived near and

interacted with the Workman and Rowland families in both Taos, New Mexico and Franklin, Missouri, as

early as 1812. Unlike Doug’s ancestors, the Rowlands and the Workmans fled Taos during the 1841 Taos

Rebellion and migrated to southern California. Meanwhile, Doug’s progenitor, Richard Campbell, married

a local Taos woman, Maria Rosa Grijalva; converted to Catholicism; became a Mexican citizen; and stayed

in New Mexico for the remainder of his life, where he worked as a miner before serving as a sheriff and

judge in Las Cruces, New Mexico. Richard and a pack of mules have been credited as the first, in 1827, to

reach California from the east by taking a southern route.

The Heritage Room, located in the basement of the La Puente City Hall, houses many artifacts and

books from the early days of La Puente. The curator, Tim Wicter, a direct descendant of John A. Rowland,

was very gracious and allowed us to explore the holdings of the museum.

The Rowland House located in the City of Industry was built in 1855 by pioneer John A. Rowland

of the Workman-Rowland Expedition. He was co-leader of that first American band of settlers to reach

Southern California from Taos, New Mexico in 1841. In Taos, he had partnered with Englishman, William

Workman, in the manufacturing of liquor. In September 1841, a caravan of approximately sixty-five

people left Taos and traveled west along the Old Spanish Trail to El Pueblo de Los Angeles. The 1,200

mile journey was completed on November 5, 1841, at which time Rowland presented a list of names of

each of the settlers to the authorities in Los Angeles.

In 1842, John Rowland and William Workman, who both had become Catholics and obtained

Mexican citizenship, obtained a joint land grant of the almost 49,000 acre Rancho La Puente from

Governor Juan Bautista Alvarado. The land grant is located about twenty miles east of Los Angeles, and

a portion of the parcel later became the city of La Puente.

Mr. Rowland built his home on the Rancho La Puente as a wedding gift for his second wife,

Charlotte M. Gray. The beautiful Greek revival style home is the oldest surviving brick structure in

Southern California. Mr. Rowland’s daughter inherited the home and, in 1879, married Captain John W.

Hudson. The captain’s daughter, Lillian, inherited the property and, in 1920, married William Dibble of the

Covina Oakwell Ranch. William and Lillian never had any children so, upon her death, she left the home

to the Hudson Elementary School District, which later became the Hacienda La Puente Unified School

District. Public tours are provided by the La Puente Valley Historical Society. (Continued on next page)


Meeting In Review

(Continued from previous page)

The house is currently being refurbished, following

severe earthquake damage. Due to ongoing restoration efforts

by the La Puente Valley Historical Society, the house and

adjacent property are currently closed to the public. However,

we were able to inspect most of the property, excluding the

second story. What was once a sprawling cattle ranch and

walnut orchard is now a conglomeration of industrial buildings

with a peek-a-boo view of the majestic San Gabriel Mountains

off in the distance.

The La Puente Valley Bicentennial

Quilt was sewn in 1976 by thirty-

two women participating in a

community project at the La Puente Community Adult School. Each of the

thirty-three patches is a fifteen-inch square that portrays the development of

the La Puente Valley from 1841 to 1976. The quilt was completed in time for

the celebration of the nation’s 200th birthday. The quilt was originally displayed

in Bank of America’s City of Industry Branch and is now hanging at the La

Puente First United Methodist Church of La Puente.

Our tour included a session on doll making. If you were going to a

birthday party in the 19th century there was no Target or Walmart to purchase

a toy, so you had to make your own. Mona Hernandez is holding the doll she

made (see picture at left). Following the tour, we dined at the Casa Blanca Restaurant, one of Doug’s

favorite local eateries. According to Karen Cordova, “We learned new things, ate good food, and laughed

a lot.” (photos courtesy Rita Cardenas)

HIGHLIGHTS FROM HISPANIC SATURDAY SAN DIEGO Ceasar Castro, Outreach Coordinator

Twelve were in attendance at the October 15 Hispanic Saturday meeting. We met in the

Commission Room on the 9th floor of the San Diego Central library. We began our meeting with a round

table discussion with everyone sharing their genealogy research. Seven of the attendees had ancestors

from Jalisco and/or Sonora which created a lively discussion about their research in those records.

I had volunteered to do the genealogy of the Mayor of Chula Vista, Mary Salas, for the Chula Vista

Genealogy Society’s Family History Day on October 22. Mary’s father is from Jalisco and her mother is

from Sonora. My goal was to find the names of all 32 3rd great-grandparents. Because the Jalisco

baptismal records provide both the parents and grandparents names, I was able to find the names of all

16 3rd great-grandparents on her father’s side. However, the Sonora records are not as detailed and I was

only able to find the names of 8 of the 3rd great-grandparents on her mother’s side.

This was the last Hispanic Saturday meeting for 2016. This

was a very good year for Hispanic Saturday San Diego.

The time and date for the first Hispanic Saturday San Diego in

2017 will be announced in January.

Happy Thanksgiving!


Congratulations to Karen Cordova

Her book Farolito has been named a finalist for the 2016

New Mexico/Arizona Book Award for Poetry. Only seven books

are on the short list of finalists. Genealogy is a cornerstone of

this book.

Farolito casts a light on the

dark subject of elder neglect

and abuse but also illuminates

a jagged path to solution and

unexpected healing. Told

through the lens of poetry, this true story about the author’s

grandmother is harrowing as the reader learns of neglect and a series

of other obstacles transpiring over the course of years: decisions about

medical issues, power of attorney abuse by another, and the logistics of

caring for the elderly from afar. However, providence and the

compassion of kind people prevailed: Management and staff at the

nursing home demonstrated high ethical standards, open

communication, and devoted care. Written in the eye of a creative

storm, Farolito is a cautionary tale that evolved and entwined around

Karen Córdova’s heart, a testament to the love of a granddaughter and

the strength to overcome anything to help and to heal.

Karen Córdova was born in Colorado and has deep roots in Southern

Colorado and Northern New Mexico. Much of her writing reflects love of her

heritage by weaving stories about la gente of the Southwest. Her ancestors are

Spanish, Native American, and a few mountain men who wandered west. She resides

in Irvine, California and is a long-time member of GSHA-SC.
