1. This paper was read at a luncheon conference of the Catholic Historical Association on December 30, 1949. While never formally published, mimeographed copies were made available to those interested in procuring it.

2. In addition to sixteen individual studies of the Franciscan missions of Upper California published by Father Zephyrn Engelhardt O. F. M. (1851–1934), this historian also published, between 1908–1916, four large volumes entitled The Missions and Missionaries of California. (San Francisco, James H. Barry Co.) It should be noted here that a second and revised edition, published in 1929–1930, contains much additional material, especially in the first volume which treats exclusively of Lower California.

3. In addition to the volume here mentioned, Father Peter M. Dunne S. J. (1889–1957), published the following three volumes, all of which contain background materials for the lower California story:

1. Pioneer Blackrobes on the West Coast. (1940)

2. Pioneer Jesuits in Northern Mexico. (1944)

3. Early Jesuit Missions in Tarahumara. (1948)

All of these studies, which served to establish Father Dunne as the outstanding authority in this field, were published by the University of California Press, Berkeley, California.

5. Father Gleeson's two volumes, issued in one cover, are long since out of print and collectors' items. They were published (1872) by the A. L. Bancroft Co., San Francisco. Father William Gleeson was born in 1829 and died in 1903.
