Jesuit missionary, born Welsch Tyrol, 1644; died California, 1711. He founded the mission of Lower California, and the first accurate knowledge of that section is given in the reports of his explorations. According to a Jesuit manuscript he was killed by rebel Indians. His "Historical Memoir of Pimeria Alta" has been translated by Bolton and published in Cleveland, 1919.
