The Presidio of San Diego was the third Spanish mission in California.
 Later in western North America, with independence, the Mexicans garrisoned the Spanish presidios on the northern frontier and followed the same pattern in unsettled frontier regions such as the Presidio de Sonoma, at Sonoma, California, and the Presidio de Calabasas, in Arizona
The Presidio de San Miguel de Cerrogordo (16481767) in Villa Hidalgo
