The de la Guerra family of Santa Barabara were among the most prominent of Californio

la Guerra y Noriega (1779-1858) and was active in politics and government during the
early decades of California statehood. The Casa de la Guerra adobe in Santa Barbara
survives into the twenty-first century and houses a local history museum.
