Kino, Eusebio Francisco, 1638-1692.
Eusebio Francisco Kino (1644-1711), Jesuit missionary and explorer in Mexico and the American Southwest, became a priest at the age of twenty-one and in 1681 went to Mexico. He led an unsuccessful attempt to settle Lower California in 1683 and was later known for the establishment of missions in Sonora, exploration along New Spain's northern frontier, and the verification that Baja California was a peninsula and not an island.
