Father: Jose RODRIGUEZ
Mother: Anita ST JOHN
Son: Tillio AMAYA
ParentsDJose de Jesus Zeferino Augustin Rodriguez 1822–1891 & Maria Ana Paula Littlejohn 1831–1916;

Ana María Paula Littlejohn y Higuera was born at the Presidio of Monterey, Alta California, México, where she was baptized in the Presidio Chapel (San Carlos) January 23, 1831 (SC Baptism 03716). She was the daughter of Francisco Javier David Littlejohn y Clark and Francisca Antonia Higuera y Cota (BP Baptism 00435). Ana married José de Jesús Zeferino Augustín Rodríguez y Martínez (SC Baptism 03257) at Mission San Juan Bautista on January 21, 1846 (SJB Marriage 01192).

David Littlejohn was born in Arbroath, Angus, Scotland, the son of Alexander Littlejohn and Helen Clark. He and his parents had moved to the port city of Callao, Peru, by the time of Peru's independence from Spain in 1821. He came to Mexican Alta California aboard one of William E. P. Hartnell's vessels in 1824, disembarking at Monterey where he initially worked for Hartnell's employer, McCulloch and Company, agents of the John Begg Company of Lima, Peru. He converted to Catholicism and was baptized Francisco Javier David Littlejohn at the Monterey Presidio Chapel (San Carlos) on December 3, 1825 (SC Baptism 03407). He married Francisca Antonia Higuera y Cota (Oct. 9, 1813; BP Baptism 00435) at the Monterey Presidio Chapel July 29, 1826 (SC Marriage 00943). Francisca was the daughter of José María Higuera y .... and María de Jesús Cota y Romero (BP Marriage 00086). After becoming a Mexican citizen in 1833, Littlejohn petitioned for a grant to Rancho Los Carneros in Monterey County, which was awarded by Governor José Figueroa in 1834. When the United States invaded Mexico in 1846, American soldiers looted and ransacked his ranch. Littlejohn died (or was killed) in late 1846 or early 1847 not long after filing a protest with the American occupation authorities. Following his death Francisca married José María Cota y Castro? (SC Baptism 03310?) at Mission San Juan Bautista August 20, 1849.
