Rafael de Jesus Villavicencio was one of the first settlers in California. Rafael was a Soldier of the Guard and was part of the Alta California expedition in 1769 headed by Don Gaspar de Portola together with Blessed Junipero Serra who was in charge of the missionaries.
The expedition arrived in San Diego on May 14, 1769, the first overland party to reach Alta California. The next day, on May 15, Gaspar de Portola and Father Junipero Serra set out across the rugged, arid land of Baja California with a contingent of soldiers and Baja mission Indians.
