Dear Manager / Historian
Did the Velarde's ever have a Spanish Land Grant, either in Colton or San Bernardino? Our family history suggest that we did.

Perhaps there other historical documents available in Spain or elswhere that validates the Velarde's history and contribution.

Please inform me as to where I can obtain such documentation.

Thank you,

Ron Velarde,

Grandson of Pablo Velarde, Great Grandson of Ramon Velarde They will tell you.....Long ago there was a fire in the courthouse and all the records were burned (from a Clint Eastwood movie) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:8001:4500:190B:20B5:BBB0:346D:2D01 (talk) 00:35, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

Dear Manager / Historian

I was wondering if you could please tell(add in article too) how San Bernardino got its name. Can you inform me when you do? Thanks ~Mfcv

facts?
"

In 1866, militia forces from San Bernardino killed Serrano men, women, and children in a 32-day campaign. Yuhaviatam tribal leader Santos Manuel (from whom the name "San Manuel comes)led the remaining Yuhaviatam from the mountains to valley floor.

"

The typo concerns me: this purported fact is not in the timeline article and en.wikipedia.org appears to have no article on Santos Manuel.

Is the source

"

In 1866, unrest came to the area as militia forces from San Bernardino killed Serrano men, women, and children in a 32-day campaign. Yuhaviatam tribal leader Santos Manuel safely led the remaining Yuhaviatam from their ancient homelands in the mountains to valley floor.

In 1891 with passage of the Act for Relief for Mission Indians the San Manuel reservation was established and recognized as a sovereign nation with the right of self-government. The San Manuel reservation was named in honor of its courageous leader, Santos Manuel, and henceforth the tribe was recognized as the San Manuel Band of Serrano Mission Indians.

Merger proposal
I propose to merge Timeline of San Bernardino, California history into History of San Bernardino, California. They are really talking about the same thing, as a timeline is just a list version of a history. This should not cause any issues of lost, critical information, or of article size. thoughts?

 * I also support the merge. Ideally the timeline page would be merged into the History of San Bernardino, California page with some kind of visual element, rather than only a bullet-pointed list. Pf1127 (talk) 22:15, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
