CALIFORNIA
HERITAGE PROJECT
Argitxu Camus
Etchecopar, PhD (from Zuberoa), post-doctoral researcher at the Center
for Basque Studies (UN Reno), is conducting an exciting project on
Basques who immigrated to
California
in the last century. It will compile short biographies of each immigrant
(hometown, house name, year and place of immigration, family and
occupational history, etc). This information is unavailable from other
sources for those who immigrated between the 1940s and 1970s—such as the
wonderful Basques who settled in Chino
and southern California more generally.
Let’s do our part to preserve our stories and our
history!
Please contact
Dr. Camus if you are interested in participating in this important
project:
