  	www.culvercity.org Jose Manuel Machado married in Los Alamos, Mexico, to travel to Alta California with a wife. Machado, a poor muleteer looking for a better life, enlisted as a "soldado de cuera, " or leather jacket soldier. Muleteers had poor reputations, so he had to wait to marry Maria de la Luz Valenzuela Y Avilas until the church could determine that he had no other "intended" or wife. The Machados, married in 1780, traveled in Rivera's 1781 expedition to Alta California the following year
