About this landmark
Plaque text:
Luis Maria Peralta Adobe
The last vestige of El Pueblo de San Jose de Guadalupe, the simple adobe, rehabilitated in the mid-19th century, is believed built before 1800 by Manuel Gonzalez, an Apache, who was one of the pobladores (founders). Later owned and occupied by Sgt. Peralta, pueblo comisionado from 1807 to 1822. Both men came to California with the Anza expedition in 1775-76.
