​The early Hispanic settlers of Alta California (part of which is now the ​state of California) were called Californios or Californianos.

​Los Californianos was organized by their descendants to preserve the Hispanic heritage of Alta California​ (history, music, culture, infrastructure, etc.) and to help other descendants compile their Hispanic genealogy.
