Translation by Babel Fish - Please don't laugh at my attempt...
Los inicios del valle [beginnings of the valley]
Hace 10 mil años empiezan a verse los primeros grupos que penetraron a la península de Baja California
[10 thousand years ago, began to see the first groups that penetrated the Baja peninsula]
Ensenada, B. C. - La región del valle que tiende a identificarse como “San Quintín” tuvo varios orígenes
En cuanto a los antecedentes humanos tenemos que remontarnos a varios miles de años atrás, alrededor de 10 mil, cuando empiezan a verse los primeros
grupos que penetraron a la península de Baja California.
[The valley region that identifies itself as "San Quintin" had various origins. Beginning with the earliest human beings, to thousands of years
later, starting 10 thousand years ago when there first saw the first groups to penetrate the Baja California peninsula].
En las zonas de humedales y desembocaduras de arroyos es donde hay rastros de presencia indígena, sobre todo del tipo “conchero”.
Se trata de los grupos que accedían a la costa durante las temporadas invernales y se alimentaban de productos del mar, como moluscos, mamíferos
marinos y aves. Se les llama “concheros” a sus vestigios por el gran acumulamiento de conchas que dejaban, como residuo de su actividad en la región.
[In humid zones where the idigenous presence floated out of, is where the indigenous groups appeared. Called the people of the "Sea Shell", these
people populated the coastal region, accumulating products of the sea during the winter, like animals of the earth, dolphin, whales, and birds.
[OKAY, I GIVE UP...]
Cove, B.C. - the region of the valley that tends to identify itself as “San Quintín” had several origins
As far as the human antecedents we must back overcome us to several thousands of years, around 10 thousands, when the first groups begin to see
themselves that penetrated to the peninsula of Baja California.
In the zones of moist soils and stream openings it is where there are signs of indigenous presence, mainly of “the conchero” type.
One is the groups that acceded to the coast during the winter seasons and they were fed on products of the sea, like molluscs, marine mammals and
birds. It is called “concheros to them” to its vestiges by the great accumulation of shells that left, like remainder of its activity in the region.
To the arrival of the first European, the valley was inhabited by groups kiliwa, that moved between the mountain range of San Pedro Martyr, the desert
of San Felipe and the coast of the Pacific, around the valley.
The first contact
He was the navigator Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo, the 24 of August of 1542, first the European in finding the region of the valley, when arriving with his
two ships at the bay of San Quintín, the one that it baptized with the name of “Port of the Possession”, because it was there where first taking of
possession in the name of the Spanish crown realised his.
Rodriguez Cabrillo had been sent by the first virrey of the New Spain, gift Antonio de Mendoza, to little explore the North Pacific of the well-known
California.
Rodriguez Cabrillo headed the first encounter between Spaniards and Indians kiliwas, and was indeed in the bay of San Quintín.
Although during many years, many of the naos of China happened in front of the bay of San Quintín, their crew never disembarked or registered their
coast.
He was in 1602 that Vizcaya Sebastián, another great Spanish navigator, explored all the coast of the Pacific of Baja California, doing detailed
registries and mapping all coastal bays and more interesting accidents. This way the first map of the Bay of San Quintín was compiled, that by the
way, was during this navigation that received such name.
Thus, during many years, the bay of San Quintín was only a geographic reference for the navigators who happened through the pacific coast of Baja
California, which they were basically the naos of China and one that another pirate.
Missions settle
This situation lasted a little more than 150 years, until in 1769 the northwest from Baja California to the missionary system began to get up itself,
thanks to the expansion of the franciscan missionaries towards the High California.
It is against this background that in 1770 captain Fernando of Creek and Moncada arrives by earth at the valley, from the mission of San Diego,
incorporating it like part of the route of the way missionary of both Californian.
In fact Creek and Moncada were first in arriving by earth at the valley, including the bay of San Quintín, and were the one who discovered the stream
of Santo Domingo. Creek and Moncada era of Nayarit, and were one of the great personages founders of Baja California, its figure is very forgotten.
In 1773 the missions of Old California happen of the franciscan ones to the Dominican ones, that expand the missionary field towards all the north of
Baja California. They initiate founded the mission of the Rosary, in 1774.
In 1775 they establish the mission of Santo Domingo of the Border, already in the region of the valley, incorporating of an effective way this region
to the missionary system. It was from this mission that the region of the valley began to grow until arriving at which today it is.
The mission was founded officially the 30 of August of the mentioned year, and the founders were Fray Manuel Garci'a and Fray Miguel Noble, but the
one that was chartered with the heavy work was first. With their work soon cattle dealer and agriculturist managed to turn to the site into everything
emporio.
This mission was the origin of the town of the Santo Domingo, oldest of the valley, and her they were leaving many the mess orderlies who began to
populate the region, obtaining with effort and dedication to establish the bases so that the growth occurred than today it is the great valley.
By the end of century XIX and principles of the XX there was an attempt of the English Company to establish a colony in the bay of San Quintín, but
this effort failed after some years.
She was as of the second decade of the century XX that arose the colony Vicente Guerrero, one of most important of the valley, very associated the
community of Santo Domingo.
The town of San Quintín and other later ones was arising from ends the decade of years 40 of century XX, and little by little they consolidated until
arriving at which today they are Camalú, San Telmo and the Rosary, communities that formed thanks to the missions, because its existence data of aims
of century XVIII.

Ensenada, B. C. - the Valley region that tends to be identified as "San Quintín" had various origins
In human history, we have to go back several thousand years ago, around 10 thousand, when they begin to see the first groups that penetrated to the
Baja California peninsula.
In the areas of wetlands and river mouths of streams is where there are traces of indigenous presence, especially of the type "conchero".
It groups who accessed the coast during the winter seasons and fed on sea products such as shellfish, marine mammals and birds. They are called
"concheros" to its vestiges by the large build-up of shells that left as waste of its activity in the region.
The arrival of the first Europeans, the Valley was inhabited by groups kiliwa, who moved between the sierra de San Pedro Mártir, San Felipe desert and
the coast of the Pacific, at the height of the Valley.
The first contact
He was the navigator Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo, on August 24, 1542, the first European to find the region of the Valley, to arrive with his two ships to
the Bay of San Quentin, who was baptized with the name of "Puerto de la possession", because it was there where he first taking office on behalf of
the Spanish Crown.
Cabrillo Rodríguez had been sent by the first viceroy of the new Spain, don Antonio de Mendoza, to explore the North Pacific from the little-known
California.
Rodríguez Cabrillo led the first encounters between Spaniards and Indians kiliwas, and it was precisely at the Bay of San Quentin.
Although for many years, many of the naos of China passed from the Bay of San Quentin, her crew never landed or registered its coast.
It was in 1602 Sebastian Vizcaino, another great Spanish navigator, explored all the Pacific coast of Baja California, making
detailed records and mapping all its bays and coastal accidents more interesting. Thus was built the first map of the Bay of St. Quentin, who
incidentally, was during this navigation that received such name.
Thus, for many years, the Bay of St. Quentin was only a geographical reference for sailors who passed by the Pacific coast of Baja California, which
were basically the naos of China, and one that another pirate.
Missions are installed
This situation lasted a little more than 150 years, until in 1769 he started joining the missionary system, thanks to the expansion of the Franciscan
Missionaries to Alta California Northwest of Baja California.
It is in this context that in 1770 captain Fernando Rivera y Moncada goes overland to the Valley, from the Mission of San Diego, incorporating it as
part of the route of the road missionary of both Californias.
In fact Rivera y Moncada was the first to arrive overland to the Valley, including the Bay of San Quentin, and who discovered the arroyo de Santo
Domingo. Rivera y Moncada was of Nayarit, and he was one of the great founders of Baja California characters, his figure is very neglected.
In 1773 the former California missions spend of the Franciscans to the Dominicans, who expanded the missionary field to the North of Baja California.
They initiate the Rosario mission, founded in 1774.
In 1775 they establish the Mission of Santo Domingo de la
Frontera, already in the region of the Valley, effectively incorporating this region to the missionary system. It was from this Mission Valley region
began to grow to reach what is now.
The mission was officially founded on August 30 this year, and the founders were Fray Manuel García and Fray Miguel Hidalgo, but which chartered with
heavy work was the first. With their work they soon managed to turn the site into all an emporium livestock and agricultural.
This mission was the origin of the town of Santo Domingo, the oldest of the Valley, and it were leaving many of the ranchers who began to populate the
region, achieved with effort and dedication to lay the groundwork to give the growth of what is now the great Valley.
Late 19th century and early 20th Centuries there was an attempt of the English company to establish a colony in the Bay of San Quentin, but this
effort failed after a few years.
It was from the second decade of the 20th century that emerged colonia Vicente Guerrero, one of the most important of the Valley, very associated with
the community of Santo Domingo.
The village of San Quintín and others later were emerging since the end of the Decade of the 40s of the 20th century, and were gradually consolidated
to reach what they are today Camalú, San Telmo and El Rosario, communities that formed due to the missions, because its existence dates from the late
18th century.

My attempt was followed up by a Babel Fish translation.
You can see why I dropped my Spanish-language minor in University.
