Caption: Cuarto Centenario Memorial Marker - La Jornada - 1598
Additional Description: On this wall are inscribed the family names of the six hundred settlers who in 1598 embarked on an arduous seven-month journey from Santa Barbara south of present day Ciudad Chihuahua, Mexico, to establish their homes in the northernmost province of New Spain, now known as New Mexico. Many modern day New Mexicans can trace their roots to these brave men, women, and children. The place of origin of the family is indicated when known.
