When was Mission San Buenaventura created?
Asked by Wiki User
It was founded by Father Presidente Junipero Serra, and is nicknamed "Mission by the Sea".
Mission San Buenaventura was founded on Easter Sunday, March 31, 1782 in what is now Ventura, California, but was at that time known as Las Californias, part of the Spanish Viceroyalty of New Spain. Named for a Franciscan theologian, Saint Bonaventure, it was the last of the missions founded by Father Serra, but ninth in the series of missions to be built. Mission San Buenaventura was planned to be founded in the year 1770, but the founding was delayed because of the low availability of the military escorts needed to establish Mission San Buenaventura. In 1793, the first church burned down. Today, only a small section of the entire mission still stands; the cemetery to the left of the church is covered by a school. It took the neophytes (native American Chumash Indians) 16 years to build the new church, which still stands today.

Who lived at mission san carlos borromeo?
Asked by Wiki User
The mission (also known as Mission Carmel) was established in 1770 and moved to its current location in 1771. It was the favorite mission of its founder, Father Junipero Serra who lived there and made it his headquarters. When he died in 1784, Serra was intombed underneath its floors..so I guess he still lives there.
The Esselen and Ohlone Indians of the area lived and worked at the mission too.
