In the history of California there have been a lot of different things that have happened. I am going to tell you about my Mission. My mission name is San Francisco de Asis. You will like my information.
The name was after the founder of the
Francisco religious order, Saint Francis of Assisi. That is why they named the mission San Francisco de Asis.
To get to my mission it is 1 hour and 30 minutes. You go south to get to San Francisco. Then you go to Sixteenth Street. Then you look for the number 3321on that street.
My mission was made in October 9,
1776. The mission is the best mission I
have. That’s my mission that I like.
My mission was made of adobe. It is 114 feet long and 22 feet wide. It has tile roof and tile floors. The mission is big.
The Indians that lived there were called
Costanoan. They were the ones that
lived in my mission.
They chose it because it was good for
farming and it was sunny. It was good
to introduce European ways to the wilds of Alta California.
In 1845 the mission lands sold during the
next few years. The land was used for
bull and bears fights, duels, horse racing and taverns.
Nothing was ever the same after the
discovery of gold in California. The
population of the sleepy pueblo rose from a mere 900 to 20,000 in only a
year. The people stopped at San
Francisco de Asis. This changed the
mission forever.
Jobs were given to both men and
women. In addition to cooking, the
Ohlone women made baskets, soap, and cloth.
The women used to fabric to make clothes for the men, children, solders,
and themselves. They made wool blankets
for the people. The Spanish taught the
Ohlone men how to farm, raise livestock, and create goods for trade. They had a hard time working.
This is the entire mission San Franciso
de Asis. I hope you like my information
of it. That is all for now.
