- South Gate,
CA History from the City of South Gate, CA. " In the summer of
1769, a group of Spanish explorers set out from the coast of San Diego to
explore the uncharted territory between San Diego and the Bay of Monterey.
With them was Father Juan Crespi, considered by historians to be one of
the great diarists of the new world explorations. His daily entries were
remarkably revealing of the country through which the caravan passed. They
proceeded in the general direction of the San Gabriel Valley, across the
Los Angeles River, which Crespi named "Porciuncula" on August 2, 1769.
There could be no history of South Gate without including the story of the
Lugo Spanish Land Grant. That grant encompassed a great part of what is
now the City of South Gate and is a vital and colorful part of this area's
history..."
