Historical notes:
Font trained at the College of the Holy Cross of Querétaro, Mexico, and was assigned to the Mission San José de Pimas in Sonora, New Spain. Because of his expertise with navigational equipment, he accompanied Juan Bautista de Anza on a trek to Alta California from the Tubac Presidio. His diary, the extended version of which is at the John Carter Brown Library, is considered the best account of Anza's expedition to establish a Spanish base on the North American west coast.This map was removed from the diary and is held separately.
