This is a trivia Extra credit question given by my genetics professor: Consider the following 21 towns/cities. San Diego, Oceanside, San Juan Capistrano, San Gabriel, San Bernardino, Ventura, Santa Barbara, Santa Inez, Lompoc, San Luis Obispo, San Miguel, Jolon/San Antonio, Soledad, Carmel, San Juan Bautista, Santa Cruz, San Jose, Santa Clara, San Francisco, San Rafael, and Solano.
a. What do they have in common in California history? All have missions founded by Junipero Serra.
b. What do the four bold locations have further in common?
I really don't like doing people's homework for them, but from checking Google, the bolded cities are the site of military forts called presidios.
