The Pobladores, a group of 46 people of 12 families, came to this area on September 4, 1781 to establish a home and community. They named it "El Pueblo de Nuestra Senora la Reina de Los Angeles de Porciuncula. Soon this was shortened to La Cuidad de Los Angeles or "The City of Angels". Now, of course, we know it as Los Angeles.
