Lieutenant Colonel Juan Batista de Anza was
the Spanish Governor of New Mexico from 1778
to 1789 and was also the first white man to
cross into Upper California overland by way
of Southern Arizona and over the Colorado River.
While Governor of New Mexico, he headed a
troop of soldiers that defeated and killed the
Notorious Chief Cuerno Verde of the Comanches.
He also led an expedition to the relief of the
starving Hopis in 1780. (In 1775 the Hopi
pcpulation was 7500; three years later their
population was decreased by an epidemic of
smallpox to 798.)
