History
Once this was Ohlone country, where the Portola Expedition found the native people to be most gracious, offering food and guidance. The name "Ohlone", derived from for the Oljon tribe living on a Spanish rancho. The Oljon themselves lived on the lower drainages of San Gregorio Creek and Pescadero Creek. Village names mentioned in Mission Dolores records include Zucigim and Pructaca. Their headman was Lachi or Lachigi, a man with four co-wives. People from this group who went to Mission Santa Clara were lumped together as “San Bernardino” people, with all other people from the Santa Cruz mountains and coast. Cross-references to Mission Dolores relatives suggest that they were the same people as the Solchequis subgroup of “San Bernardino” people at Santa Clara. Estimates of the pre-mission Oljon population was 157 people.[4]
