San Joaquin River Named for Moraga Founder Don Joaquin
Dr. Cecil Corwin recounts the Moraga family’s role in early California exploration. Don Joaquin Moraga aided Anza’s crossing, explored the San Joaquin River up to the Tuolumne junction, and helped name the river after his given name. His son Don Gabriel Moraga led later expeditions and may have named the San Joaquin while also naming King’s River in its early travels.
