My grandfather, John Antonio Borba at age 11, first settled in the San Luis Obispo area of California in 1901; and lived there for about 10 years. He then moved south to the desert of Brawley and El Centro, He and his brothers finally settlied in the Chino/ Ontario, area of California in about 1924 and remained there for the rest of their lives. We know of no other close Borba family in California. I sure wish we did. I have verified this with my last surviving aunt , age 92, who has a very good memory of people and family history.
