Cousins Terri de la Peña and Sharon Reyes, descendents of the Marquez/Reyes family, began a journey into their genealogy that all started in 1839 with the Mexican land grant of Rancho Boca de la Santa Monica. The grant stretched from present day Santa Monica to Topanga Canyon. Spend an evening with rich family stories and ancestral photographs that connect to all of us living in the Santa Monica Mountains of today. Meet at Woodland Hall. Parking is free for the evening. 1.5hrs
