I will see if there is anything in my paper files but that will take longer. The Peña and Piña families are often confused. The Peñas came up through New Mexico to California; the Peña Adobe Regional Park in Vacaville was theirs. The Piña family migrated through western Mexico and up the California coast to what is now Sonoma County. How are you descended from Mark West?
