At various times, the presidio was also called San Bernardo, San Pedro, San Mateo, San Felipe de Jesús, or Santa Cruz.[1]

Established in 1741 at the site of a Pima settlement,[2] the presidio was relocated to Las Nutrias in 1774, to Santa Cruz de Gaybanipitea shortly after, and to Mission Santa María Suamca in 1787.[1] It was still extant in 1900.[2]
